This charade has gone on long enough. Beth cannot recruit the caliber of players needed to win championships. She is a middle of the road coach who luckily comes across a few talented players once in a while. Her demeaner shows a lack of energy and excitement, qualities that many of her fellow coaches show when we play them.
If this year is like the past few years, let's start shopping!

Not to defend her but the only team raising any hardware lately has been Oklahoma and that juggernaut, everyone else has been playing for second place.

It's been awhile since SEC has won one.

She at least needs to get back to WCWS with this veteran team because next season will be like starting over.

I feel like the opposite is true. She gets great recruits and then squanders their talent. As a former pitcher, her pitchers have been mediocre. Their offense was a little improved last year, but overall they generally under perform at the plate. The decline of the softball program has been gradual, but consistent.

Here we go with the demeanor again. How did Tom Landry ever win a Super Bowl? Or Andy Reid? Or dozens of other HOF coaches/managers over the years? Demeanor has absolutely nothing to do with winning or losing.
