Softball comings and goings?

A minor point is that the newspaper article is from a writer on the Ocala paper, not the Sun. The two papers share a lot of resources and Ocala articles sometimes appear in the Sun. My guess is the author is the high school writer for Marion Co. who covered the girls in the past. There was nearly no Gator info in the article.

There is no effort to find out the real background, just an update on the local girls and what they're doing these days. I won't argue that the Sun sports section has tough investigative reporting, but this one is pitiful. The reason that the pair are news is being booted. I'm surprised he didn't comment on the girls' recent visit to the nails salon.

Wes gator I second everything you said. People who know what took place do not wish to hurt anyones reputation. On the other hand some things are so PC in todays society that folks seem to miss seeing the forest while they're looking at the trees. Some things are just better left unsaid. Good luck to both those girls!

Go GATORS!

It didnt have anything to do with racism. But I agree with everything youve said.

It's not that hasn't been an issue before under the previous regime. Led to a law suit if I recall correctly.

Looks like Schutte isn't coming back for her final year. She has been named head softball coach at Oak Hall

Moultrie has no eligibility remaining.

According to the Gainesville Sun this morning, Brittany Schutte has left the softball program to be a coach at a local high school. Wow, another strong player gone. Coincidence? Or not? Softball's got a lot of rebuilding work ahead of it.

Not saying there is a connection, but they are holding open tryouts for the team today ... announced on softball website.

What softball forum? There is a baseball forum called "around the horn" - it's clearly marked baseball. So it seems to me that softball posts should go in this forum.

[gatorcal]

Think he's joking about the softball forum, but there is a thread on this already. It's right under this one.

[grizgator]

MOds - if you are going to use "around the horn" for both baseball and softball, then at least take the "(baseball)" notation off the thread title so we all know where to post!

It clearly says, Around the Horn, Gator Baseball and Softball.

Is there a "Reading Comprehension" forum?
