Some excellent posts here, thoughtful and spot on. I think most people seem to agree on what we will see next spring and only differ in small degrees. Patty said in her last post Battle series presser that she won't answer who will start because she doesn't know. But she mentioned Coor a lot. Coor's...

Disappointing. Last year this was televised. What's changed in OU media land?

According to the OU softball home page schedule, it's on espn+ and the Varsity radio. Hope that's so.

Your assessment, JSull, is spot on. We've all been around softball and watched it enough to realize when the new recruits are indeed outstanding, and we're not just being hopeful fans. That's the case now. With so many talented players on the roster, I don't think we'll see a settled starting lineup...

Yep, the freshmen looked the part last night. They have speed, agility, and carry big bats. Right now, Parker is the only one who looks ready for prime time on defense. The others will correct their fielding mistakes, contribute this year, and be ready next year after the greatest class in college s...

Whether games are too long depends on the game. Nine innings OU vs Stanford in the WS was riveting, like the extra innings Clemson game. There was a game early in the season vs Ole Miss I think in which OU put up nine or so in the first inning, game over. Both teams kind of went through the motions ...

Thanks for the assessment, 56. As usual, top notch. Just a quick question since I know you attended most games last year. Toward the end of the season, it seemed to me Hannah Coor had grown substantially. Bigger, maybe big enough to put some pop in her bat. Did you happen to notice this or was just ...

There seems to be a bit of divide on this question. I think we are assuming all sports are alike in this regard. Say Georgia, Alabama or the great OU football teams playing the superbowl winner. That indeed would be a slaughter. But in softball, I don't think there is that big of a gulf between prof...

Totally agree with the 22 team because the 22 team is basically the 23 team only with Alo. And yes, they'd likely take down Team Japan and beat team USA, which is why I get irked by the way the USA selection process seams to end up every year with few or no OU alum or players. That's like having an ...

Apparently, Mike White got lost last week in the Serengeti. He thought Vawter was doing her mission in Kenya and not South Africa and chased her there. I think an OU alum told him that. Oh Well.

It looks like this means neither Vawter nor Maxwell are coming to OU. Vawter said she was a later, not a Sooner. Apparently so. Bringing in one of them now might rattle the moving parts of the pitching staff.

Nothing would have changed for Erickson had she stayed at OU. She's a top player, but she would have been playing behind the best catcher in the universe Hansen and the surging star Cydney Sanders. Then she'd battle for right field and play mostly behind Torres and no guarantee at DP with Parker and...

This is such an outstanding post, 56, and your conclusion that it shows how remarkable the players are from the 21, 22, 23 teams is spot on. Till I saw these stats I hadn't realized to what degree that is true. We've sometimes talked about which softball team was the best of all time. Clearly, it wo...

Of course, it's an obvious thing to say, but I'll say it. Well deserved.

I had heard he was on the floor, hanging onto Maxwell's ankle as she was trying to get out the door, shouting, "Please don't go! You hurt me." Not exactly Patty and Jordy's parting.
