    Even though your above post is only your 4th message, I find it very interesting. I have no clue as to what you said is accurate or not but I hope for the sake of the program it is not.

    How many different angles do you need to hear it from? I would gain absolutely nothing from lying as you are suggesting.

    If you thought I was suggesting you were lying then I apologize. I did not mean it to be interpreted that way. I thought I was saying I hope you are wrong.

    No problem. I can assure you that everything is 100% accurate. There is plenty more, but as I said I will not comment to any other girls. I genuinely like every young lady on that team. They are all exceptional people. There is a problem with the program that is increasingly coming to light. It seems no one wants to admit what is obvious.

    Let me ask two hypothetical questions to all the members here:

    1. Would you go to watch young HS girls play travel tournaments if you are not related, friends of her family, her HS coach, a college coach, a college recruiter or affiliated with a recruiting service? If so, how comfortable would you be doing so?

    2. Would you follow these young HS girls around the country at travel tournaments to track their performance and stats on said girls whether they were worthy of playing for UF or any other school, then make a judgement, and state such opinion openly on a public forum, social media, etc.? If so how comfortable would you be with that?

    No problem. That would make me the same as countless numbers of fans and supporters of countless football, basketball and baseball programs across the country. But demented and unhinged people wouldn't consider them to be "creepy old men".

    As I've said before
    As I've said before, my daughter did the travel softball circuit and was recruited and played in college. I've been to countless travel tournaments and showcases across the southeast. I dont recall ever seeing a bunch of random "fans" there. I also know a lot of other college players, including g some who played for UF, and they can cooperate the same notion that these random "fans" aren't at softball showcases.

    Do you go to these tournaments? If you do, you are one of the very, very few that Dothan have absolutely no skin in the game.

    You also didn't answer question 2. I'm curious on yo I r thoughts on that one.

    Signed,
    Been there, done that
