Softball versus Wichita State
Down 6-0 in the bottom of the 4th inning. Skylar gives up 5 earned runs in 2 innings pitched. Relieved by Anderson. We're not gonna win 30% of our conference games....if Skylar is our #1 pitcher. -

On a scale of 1 to 10...How would you rate this season so far?
A 9, which is about where we were projected to be in the AAC in preseason polls. Unless UAB upsets Memphis I expect Hodge to be AAC coach of the year. And who knows. If we have a better team next year maybe fewer fans will shown up than this year. -

Yes they performed well but against a team with a pulse or competitive guard play they faltered. It’s remarkable what Hodge did with a roster of little talent from the outside looking in but according to Hodge himself the expectation within the program was to win the conference and we failed to do that. Hodge is hungry for more and pissed for falling short. I am too. -

What could have been
What an awful decision and terrible mismanagement at NTSU that resulted in dropping to 1-AA briefly. Highly compensated people need to have very high job performance expectations. That must not have happened back in 1980 at NTSU. I am sure they all kept their highly overcompensated roles at NTSU and NT is still feeling the effects from the mismanagement. Dennis Parker forgot to take the playbook to one game as I recall. I think it was against Nebraska. He also punted on 3rd down against OU in 1991. I was there in person to witness that. It was a quick kick though. He was out of his depth at the college level, but he could recruit really well. I wish someone more knowledgeable than me could list up some of his top recruits. Anthony Bridges? -

Outside of Memphis, none of those teams make the tournament unless they win their conference. I'm not trashing McNeese or High Point but they won the Southland and Big South. Good for them but they aren't world beaters. Just the best of a bad conference. Giving a 6 is not a shot at our program but if you score rate this season a 7 or higher, what would you have rated a team that won the conference auto bid but lost in the first round of the big dance? What about a team that made a run in the big dance? Truth is, we finished 2nd in the conference regular season and lost in the semis of the conference Tourney. In other words, we won nothing. A 7 would have been at least making the conference finals. Winning the auto bid today but losing in the first round of the big dance would have been an 8. A run to the sweet sixteen (week 2 of the NCAA tourney) a 9 and anything better a 10. I'm not trying to set expectations too high but I'm also not going to give our season rave reviews for doing ok when we're capable of better. This program has won 20+ games 6 times since McCasland took over and hasn't had a losing season in these past 8 seasons. A 24 win season is fun but without meaningful March basketball it's all for nothing. It's time to raise the bar a bit.
