I agree with the doorbell on this one. It is not fair to the girls that work so hard to have to play under a coach who knows less about the sport than teenagers! FCS has a long history of making bad coaching changes/hires. From what i gather they have just stuck someone in there to coach and comply with title 9 and to heck with the girls. Its a complete insult to the team and school to not even conduct a coaching search for someone that has at the very least coached softball on some level. But as most people that are close to the situation know this is just how they operate up there. I have never met any of the coaches that will be coaching but do know a "yes man" when i see one. A yes man that will do whatever the athletic dept wants, will do whatever the board wants and will not question anything or anybody. And to the previous post saying that softball and baseball are the same except for pitching, you must be out of your mind! The coaching of a softball game and baseball game are night and day. Do they slap bunt in baseball? Do they bait and switch in baseball? Do they have a courtesy runner in baseball? Do they have the ability to steal bases like in baseball? These questions i'm sure the coaching staff now have never even heard of or know until now. Just hope they make a "Coaching Softball for Dummies" book for him to read. Coach Powell cared very much about those girls and trying to make them better women and christians. FCS was lucky to have her as long as they did. She went to school there and poured her heart into that program, to only be forced out and never given the support that she needed. Well they have what they want now, a mediocore program that can stay out of the way of baseball and football. Congrats!!!!
