That goes to Alleva. Looking at her record at FIU, it's crazy to think she's had the success she has had and crazier to think that Alleva even gave her the job.

It all goes to recruiting. When you allow your players to have fun and play loose, you're going to attract top talent. It helps that the popularity of softball seems to be at an all time high in this region. Torina was also smart adding Dobson to her staff. He was with OU and had the World Series experience.

It sucks for Alabama in many ways. Florida has been the only other team that we've been competing with from the SEC. We'd get knocked out by LSU, but never in OKC. The double edged sword of a being in a softball conference. I won't complain, though. I'd rather see an SEC team win it over Michigan. It's better for the conference in what has been a rough year.

good post. alleva haters are starting to shut up, because LSU's athletic program is red hot right now.

I just hope she's happy at LSU, because she will win a lot of hardware in Baton Rouge if she wants. She's actually a Florida alum, but Walton is so young that I don't see him leaving UF anytime soon.


The SEC is just going to be ridiculously staked these next 5 years. LSU, Florida, Bama, UT, Auburn, Georgia, A&M, and Mizzou? DAMN. I don't think Dobson takes the Arkansas job on that alone.

I get the sinking feeling that Alabama softball is going to equal Georgia baseball. The program to finally break the barrier for the SEC, only to see the flood gates open and several other SEC programs pass us. It happened to UGA after 1990. And since Alabama won the SEC's first title in 2012, things have changed dramatically.
