I believe Earl and Bernard have coaches in mind.  Just like the positions for men's tennis, track & field were filled quickly. 

However I'll say again if nothing by 5 pm tomorrow it's the same as it ever was. 

For the record I'm a of exceedingly large proportions Stanford softball fan who goes to games.  Just in a three year funk

To echo Bob's point, what makes this so thoroughly unacceptable to both the players and the fans is how coveted Pac-12 jobs are in the softball community. Once again, all 8 other Pac-12 teams other than Stanford made the tournament, even teams with no where near the resources that Stanford has (Oregon St. etc.). As such, a coaching staff with even basic competence just has to schedule a reasonable OOC schedule, win a decent portion of those games, and not get skunked in Pac-12 play (i.e. Cal's resume this year, which they even turned into a No.2 seed in their regional). This program has the resources, history and extremely talented (both athletically and academically) student-athletes to contend. A 2-22 Pac-12 record, with 5 healthy pitchers, the three exceptional seniors that we had this year, and the talented freshman class, falls squarely on the coaching staff.
