No game tomorrow wouldn't doubt if Karen doesn't come back with Pickens again Sunday. I think she wanted to sweep this series because it is UConn. The fact that she brought Pickens back kind of backs that up.
Dayum! A reasoned, discerning voice of dissent! Kudos!And the difference between a coach that preps a team for a playoff run and one that doesn’t. Karen Weekly never ceases to amaze. It’s difficult to understand how she would be worried about sweeping UCon because it is UCon while a coach like Gasso leaves a true freshman in that’s getting slightly beat up by South Carolina (a conference game, no doubt) in order to prepare another pitcher for the playoffs. OU may have been lucky to win that, and maybe because Landry wasn’t available, but the fact remains, Gasso was willing to take a conference loss to prepare for dividends later. It’s irksome to see Pickens having to throw more innings, especially against UCon. I could probably understand better if it were a conference game, but dadgum.
I'd like to see us play this bunch every year like in basketball. I think it could develop into a very good rivalry. UConn gave us everything we could handle in that second game. We obviously don't like each other. That animosity creates good competitivenessNo game tomorrow wouldn't doubt if Karen doesn't come back with Pickens again Sunday.
