Hats off to McCloy for pulling this off. It was fun and allowed a lot of people to participate ... and the alternative was nothing.  Appreciate that criticisms were constructive ... the tone softens the “no good deed goes unpunished” reality facing any first time program.  

I would like confirm two things I think I heard:  First , Tara said that Ki called the play that got us to Overtime against Colorado .”Nashville” if I remember correctly and Second, Tara was very upfront and out in front in predicting great things for this team next year .  I’m more used to coach speak that says “we have a chance to be good if we work hard but the schedule is tough and the conference is tougher”. I don’t remember Tara ever being this positive about a team this early.

Did I hear what a I thought I heard?

You did.  But I have noticed that as Tara has mellowed out in recent years that she is often more upbeat about the season ahead than she used to be.

At this point my greatest fear is that our rising talent and Oregon's losses to graduation put us in the best position in years to win the Pac 12, and we might not play any games.
