Gm 2 & 3: Louisiana softball vs. Oregon

[Turbine]

9 times out of 10 we lose these games? Wko was the first team to go to Arizona and deny them a trip to OKC? AS A FOUR SEED?

Who beat the #1 team in America in OKC? Hint: it wasn't Oregon.

Who has been to 6 college world series, gone deep in 3 of them and played on championship Monday in one of them?

Who has gone to Baton Rouge THREE times and sent a highly ranked LSU team home?

we always lose these?

Shall I continue?

Take a deep breath, everybody.

+1

Very good and accurate post...except for one small detail. That team was ALREADY home...three times!

Let me explain it a little better for you. We are the Gonzaga of softball.

How many times has Gonzaga been to the final 8? Six?

final 3? championship Monday? How many #1 teams have they beaten?

Gonzaga of softball isn't accurate IMO.

Before you #2 team in the country me, how many errors did Oregon force?

That might have been our worst softball in a few years over an entire weekend.

A lot of "learning."

Should they have been number one? Checking their schedule, they were number one and then dropped while sweeping a conference for on the road, doesn't seem like they should have droppwed

[basinbear]

We are an elite softball program...period.....it does not matter how many stars our signed prospects have...what result we get with them is what matters

[31Ragin97]

Oregon only has one player from in state? How exactly are they adhering to the scholarship limits?

[Cajun Soldier]

Say what you want but i'd gladly pay my money to see these young ladies play and if we don't host a super that just mean me and the boys get another vacation, road trip. It was one series for me the biggest thing I take away from the weekend is how valuable Mike is to the program. The girls will forget about this weekend while sweeping Monroe for the conference championship.

No, it's not comical. I am a Big supporter of Cajun softball and what this coaching staff does with the players they recruit. However, 9 times out of 10we lose these games Dan it has been happening for a long time now. In, recruiting you can't always look at the potential for development. Most of the time you have to look at the talent in front of your face that the rest of the nation sees.

This program has been "one of the top programs in the nation for years". So don't tell me we can't compete with other programs for TOP players. It is usually the top pitchers that other programs have that we don't. Yes, I know we have some good pitchers. But you can't tell me we have a pitcher like Oregon has EVERY year

The only programs that beat us have recruiting advantages we don't. It may be the case that we could out recruit them for a national prospect here and there. And maybe we're ignoring that ability. I'm not too sure about that. But to pretend we've done what we've done, and only fall inches short against the giants... that we somehow have a recruiting card we're not playing... is comical to me. We became a powerful softball program despite our school status. We can't just walk into any living room in the country, with our softball pedigree, and take the cream of the high school crop away from the billionaire colleges. "We've been elite for a long time" only applies to our softball results. That isn't the only tool others have when recruiting young ladies and their parents. They've been elite in other areas that impress young athletes. Do you think the SBC is a recruiting advantage for our coaches? Don't you think it alone limits us?
