Geez, mid-week baseball games get cancelled just because it is cloudy, so they don't have to make a long trip for nothing in case it rains. It is a mid-week non-conference game that would be nice to play, but not completely necessary. I also hear about HUDS team all the time, that I completely agree with, so I'm okay with the softball team being referred to as the Head Coaches team.
This issue does not need to be blown up. This team has been through enough. Let's support our University's Softball team.
No I wouldn't. Like I said, mid-week non-conference games are quick to be cancelled, especially if there is a long driving distance, just because there is a possibility of rain. And that makes sense. This is a long grueling season for coaches, so if they have some personal issues that they have to deal with, especially if they or there family have medical issues. I can't disagree with that. These people are human.
He may have some personal issues to deal with, but wouldn't an assistant coach be capable of heading up a road trip?
Coaches in other sports have personal issues from time to time but scheduled games are played. I am certain this team would have competed hard, without the head coach, if given the chance to do so.
Just my 2 cents.
It would hardly be fair to the team to make a road trip with a single young coach. Granger has had the red A ever since she was demoted to assistant after being told this was her chance by Farmer. She did not make either tourney events, WKU, or USA.
About the only thing you can hold Lotief accountable for was the staff he assembled for the 2013 season. I am pretty sure he did not expect to lose Joy Webre Leblanc, hiring Granger to replace her. I cannot think he hired this guy Joshua Johnson to go play ball in the middle of the season. So he kind of dropped the ball on those things. One Joy? It is clear now seems to be unfortunate, then of course Granger came in at the last moment, who would think she would get Vermilon flu, and Johnson is a total mess up.
More successful than Robe, more succesful than HUD, way more success than anything our AD has attempted to date.. and you guys are questioning him for cancelling a midweek game?
seriously??
