February 20, 20223 yr Clearly I'm the issue. Have only seen two of our runs scored live, but the majority of our fuckups.

February 20, 20223 yr Keep fuckin' scoring.... 9-6 Texas leads in bottom 4th Edited February 20, 20223 yr by LTtxfan
February 20, 20223 yr Janae Jefferson, Mary Iakopo and Lauren Burke have all been All American type players in the past and they look just as lost as the rest of them.

February 20, 20223 yr No one says a word to the catcher on the steal? Yeah, the culture on this team is bad.

February 20, 20223 yr O'Leary is not right... Not sure WTF Mike has been doing to prepare this team for this season, but this team is not ready to play. So many fundamental issues right now... FUCK
February 20, 20223 yr Sophia is throwing like the bullpen mound is 10’ closer. Edited February 20, 20223 yr by shadow_operative2.0

Very much so. Not sure there has been a dedicated strength/performance coach for softball, but it would help. Melissa Schmitz, below, has the duty along with Golf and Cross Country so her plate is full. Lance Sewell at one time did both baseball and softball. He did a great job and was well liked. Pierce may not want to share the baseball person. It is very important for flexibility and proper strength training and most importantly nutrition. Some of the players look like they have added bad weight and lost flexibility and speed. https://texassports.com/sports/softball/roster/staff/melissa-schmitz/68
February 20, 20223 yr 13 minutes ago, ClubWhatever said: is that a thing in softball? It is definitely a thing. My guess is that there is some sort of divide between the younger and older players. The super seniors seem checked out, and if true, it’s gonna be a long season.
February 20, 20223 yr Author Go ahead and take this season and Save ourselves the pain and stop watching.

Mike White, his staff, and these players are all to blame. It's a shame the older players aren't locked in either... Edited February 20, 20223 yr by LTtxfan

February 20, 20223 yr Last year White stated the team did not know each other well and could not bond with off field activities because of Covid. This year is no excuse. And as someone mentioned above, there seems to a void in leadership. Iakopo, Jennae, Burke, and Parker just don't have that personality. This is where we miss you know who, now at Ok St.
February 20, 20223 yr I can't remember being this disappointed in a Texas Softball team in a long time. Gotta go back to some times while Connie was still the Texas coach... smdh
February 20, 20223 yr I watched this team all day yesterday. I have been around softball for 20 years and when I say they don’t seem to be a close knit bunch, I mean it. The team traveled around the park in small pods…I have never seen that before. There is zero emotion in the dug out, which is crazy in softball. No cheering, no picking each other up, nothing.
