UL Softball Loses Back To Back Games To Texas

[roarman]

I just saw that the post from roarman that I replied to has already been completely discredited by Mr. Hemphill before I had a chance to reply.

What Mark wrote is exactly right. Elkin had exactly zero home runs at Texas Tech. Her sophomore year at UL she hit 20 something. She is the exception. Most of the players the previous coach had, took a year or two to learn his hitting technique. And, that was part of the fun of watching them play. Seeing them go from diamonds in the rough to superstars.

The only players that Glasco has had on this team, for more than two years, are Kandra Lamb, who does not bat, Raina, who is now injured for the second year in a row, and Taylor Roman, who was injured last year and has not returned to her pre-injury form. Oh, there's also Mayeau. She's doing well, but has not projected to that superstar level.

Coach against the percentages, over coach, run your team out of innings.

Coach against the percentages? Could you give the board a few examples?

Right. They were diamonds in the rough. That's why it took some of them two years or more, to develop.

Wasn't taking them years to develop. Sorry

You can make excuses, you can explain it away any way you want. Our beloved Cajun SB program has regressed significantly in the last 3 years.

We need a stellar hitting coach. Glasco should stick to recruiting

Nice job. Almost 20 years of the previous coach coaching hundreds of players, and you found three that were really successful out of the gate.

[alum81]

Oh no no, I'm sorry, I'm mistaken. Our SB teams have been much improved the last few years over what we were used to watching before. Sorry I mispoke.

Huh.

Guess you heard right.

If you listened to Glasco interview with Foote after the game then you will see that what I said was correct. Have a good day.

"ready to go" is a before the game statement, not after she played statement.
