Dad isn't happy. From what I'm gathering, he might be right. From what he's saying, Maddie was still having headaches from a recent concussion, but was still pitching. In my experience with my DD's concussions. if you're still having headaches, you aren't ready to return to action.

Another stick on the pile of concerns with the new Ducks program.

It is troubling but I suspect the truth lies somewhere in the middle as I'm sure she passed concussion protocols but it does't change the fact that there are more personnel issues at Oregon.

If you have a minute, go to the dad's twitter. He clearly has a need to complain....about everything. I mean everything. It is crazy. The guy definitely was made for twitter. He is not happy about much.

Considering how well they handled Paige Lowary at Oklahoma, I'd be shocked and very disappointed to learn Lombardi was forcing a pitcher back into the circle still suffering from concussion symptoms.

With a parent who can't seem to find the good in much... you have to wonder if the apple fell directly under the tree.

Fair. That said, the mass exodus indicates a larger issue with the program. Maybe Lombardi can check out some of the 18u programs and find a pitcher or two

Didn't Oklahoma have more pitching depth to rely on, though? Oregon is in a bad spot in that regard.

I wonder how many players who left Oregon did so because Mike White left along with (theoretically) any chance of winning the oh-so-elusive national championship. If Lombardi is at all good at recruiting she'll be able to recruit some pitchers for next year.

Their summer camp is full so I’m sure they’ll find someone and the transfer portal will be hopping too.
