Players are mostly a direct reflection of their coaching, good or bad. So if said coach says ad nauseum that they "f---ing suck", she/her/it should look in the damned mirror as well.

Got swept at LW this weekend, 6-0 and 2-0 yesterday and 7-0 today.
6-0 game Saturday and game today were no hitters, LW pitcher lost perfect game today by walking batter with 2 outs in 7th. Struck out 16 of 22 batters faced.
In other words…..

Head Coach Bailey Wigness tells a player who she is not renewing scholarships for before having the conversation with said players. Said players overhear it in there apartment from this player who is" CLOSE "to Coach Wigness. In their exit meetings each players confronted Coach Wigness about this UNPROFESSIONAL BEHAVIOR. Hitting Coach gets his training from YOU TUBE....no wonder we hit so badly.

And crickets from Burch and Downs as expected. Like I said before, good luck to the young ladies leaving or deciding to leave on their own. They deserved better.

You are right on the money about Burch, Scruggs,& Downs. One player went to compliance and got her scholarship money back to finish her degree next year. Coach Wigness had promised this money to new players coming in and now will have to go back to them and explain no money.....Doesn't follow the process and looks / IS Bad. And all these issues Burch, Scruggs, & Downs know about.

Based on what? I've never met her or seen her coach in person, so I don't really have a dog in the fight here, but how can you say that staff hasn't gotten the job done after one year? She took over a program that won 5 games the previous year and tripled its win total in her first year. Sure, 15-win seasons aren't the ultimate goal, but how can you categorize a tripled win total in the first year as not getting it done? If anything it demonstrates that the new staff are significantly better coaches, since they're succeeding with a good percentage of the previous staff's players.
I know there's a parent on here who doesn't like her use of language and coaching tactics. I'd be careful letting one anonymous poster color your entire view of the coaching staff. To be clear, if a coach is being verbally abusive, there's no place for that, but I'm not putting much stock in an anonymous person posting secondhand versions of stories. If we're looking at the objective facts, it looks like the program is on an upward trajectory. Anyone who knows college athletics knows that the next 2-3 years will tell you everything about how good the program will ultimately be, since the players will increasingly be the ones the new staff recruited. Feel free to attend or not, but it makes no sense to say they aren't getting the job done at this point.

She has no tact!!! She doesn't respect her players and her only way it seems to reach her players is to yell!! I don't see how you think the program is moving forward....Wow!!! We haven't improved and nor won't until she is gone!!!!

Played Georgia this fall lost 23-0. Agree with "garbageman80" program not going in the right direction.
