Cool story I have to share about Jordan

My daughter’s hitting coach is Robert “Pops” Young, Marissa Young’s dad. We had a lesson last night and we were talking about VT and he brought up Jordan. Talked about her being a Duke commit at one time, but wanted to start her freshman year, so she decomitted and chose VT. That was a promise that Duke couldn’t offer. He said Duke missed out on a great kid and a special family.

Jordan Lynch had one of the best weekends in the country for a freshman

I think Shumaker is going to be an absolute menace to the SEC.**

Notice that she was the only ACC player

But it was a promise that Tech offered?
dallasvt • 02/12/25 12:34 AM ET
I imagine we discussed the roster

Part of getting the best is knowing ur product

If Duke ruled it out, I would have to think it was due to other promises/
dallasvt • 02/12/25 04:42 AM ET
Imagine how many more she could have had if we didn't run rule everyone**

Have some thoughts on that.

Very interesting proposed "Run Rules" ideas here and below***
A3genhokie • 02/12/25 12:18 PM ET
My thoughts are 2 innings are too much. All games through 6 innings then
UTPr0sim • 02/12/25 09:23 AM ET
Not sure I understand you. Or maybe you don't understand my idea?
laphroaig • 02/12/25 10:50 AM ET
I think I understand yours. Mine is pretty simple. Change the run rule
UTPr0sim • 02/12/25 11:37 AM ET
I like watching more softball and giving more players a chance to play.
laphroaig • 02/12/25 11:42 AM ET
I like this for early season tournaments. A couple of caveats:
MidloHokie • 02/12/25 09:20 AM ET
Those caveats make sense. The idea is more softball for players and us.**
laphroaig • 02/12/25 10:51 AM ET
Right. The costs are baked in (facilities, ump, etc). Why not optimize . .
MidloHokie • 02/12/25 12:37 PM ET
Wouldn't work on those times one team has another game
ColWilliamFleming • 02/12/25 09:00 AM ET
The Colonel covered that. Makes sense.**

No need for apology......
