I'm sure I didn't say this publicly as it isn't something I would say about a kid coming in to play for UF. But I know for a fact that I said it privately to at least 5-7 people who are on this board just prior to Mia actually arriving on campus. I've watched her play since she was in 14U playing with Keagan for Tennessee Mojo. I said, "I expect Mia to be a decent player and don't expect much more than that." I stand by that comment going forward. We will see.
Great match. Both are super people. I'm hoping for a boy and a girl, eventually, to cover all opportunities.
She announced it during one of the postgame interviews. Said something about going out to find a wedding dress. I must have missed all of the great and comprehensive reporting coming out of Gainesville for softball.
You and me both. Technically, he apparently isn't violating any rules since there is a way to constantly tamper with kids through other avenues. Ethically, though, I have big problems with it.
Taylor Pannell has made it official and committed to Texas Tech. Where is Mia going to play??!!! This article says she's an OF, but I'm pretty sure she played 3B at Tennessee. She was not only the Vols leading hitter, but only made 5 errors and lead them in RBI. Former Tennessee Softball Standout Taylor Pannell Commits to Texas Tech
Tech is making a mockery of the sport. Because they have unlimited money and they can. They are almost making Oklahoma look like paupers. So, go buy yourself a national championship. Didn't work this year. Perhaps, even throwing multiple millions around won't get it for you next year either. Not sure exactly how but I have a feeling that in the end this absurdity will come back and bite them in the butt.
That could also mean she is going to a wedding and needs to pick out a dress to wear to it. If DJ lagway was going to get hitched everyone would know. Given their age what 20 chances are they were just going to attend a wedding.
That's the rules in place right now. There is nothing illegal, immoral or underhanded about it. They have the money and want to spend it, so build their to to the best they can. I love someone other than OU competing now.
Why do grown adults wildly speculate about early entry young women student athletes, or any student athlete for that matter??? That's just sad, to be honest. Let them find their way without throwing shade on them. Geez.
