A lot of highs and lows for #MississippiState this season.

All of those emotions came out on the field after Sunday's game against Georgia.

@ShelbyCHilliard You implied fault, thus the bad faith. Have a good one. 🫡

[Pete Smith @drpetesmith]

@ShelbyCHilliard I’m not reading into anything. I’m not a fan of either teams; rather someone who has taught communication classes for 24 years and giving you some advice. It is bad faith on your part.

[Pete Smith @drpetesmith]

@ShelbyCHilliard It is the crux when you try to argue you’re being objective and you’re not willing to acknowledge that you are reaching to give Pannell the benefit of the doubt when she could have ignored the question. It’s not the journalist’s fault, and no one was trying to lead her anywhere.

[Pete Smith @drpetesmith]

@ShelbyCHilliard It was open ended, and asked to both parties. How else should it had been asked. Just think you have a little bit of a blind spot here. “What did Karen say to you?” is open ended.

[Pete Smith @drpetesmith]

@ShelbyCHilliard @mdkothe It was a fair, open ended question asked to both parties, and, as a journalist. It wasn’t a trap, and Pannell wasn’t being led anywhere. Your implication is that she was being led. Thus, the bad faith. This is coming from someone with no dog in this hunt.

Mississippi State's WCWS journey wasn't just about softball.

Here is last night's emotional perspective from HC Samantha Ricketts on the culture that helped bring @HailStateSB to Oklahoma City.

Welcome home, #OKCDawgs!

[Pete Smith @drpetesmith]

Back in Feb., I saw @Coach_Ricketts in the Small-Mart. I wished her good luck in the upcoming season, and she couldn’t have been more gracious and friendly. Don’t tell me any different—I know I put the good luck mojo on the team right then and there! 😉

Taryne Mowatt-McKinney probably needs a raise on her raise now.

[Pete Smith @drpetesmith]

@MrCoachTbratt So happy for you! There are a lot of us who know how long this coaching staff has worked for this moment!
