Have The Five Softball Players Officially Entered The Portal?

Please help me. I cannot find anywhere online, on any softball site, that any of the five players have officially entered the portal.

They all said they were "going to", but, I don't see where any of them have.

If you know that any of the players have 100% entered the portal, please post a link.

How interesting could this get. Hmmmm

FWIW: I looked myself and didn't see any of them so I made a phone call to someone who has more in depth access and this is correct. None of the five are officially listed in the ncaa softball portal as now. As Coach Deggs said its about to get real fun around here.

Wonder if that was a shot across the bow from the players to keep Maggard from cheaping out and hiring a community college coach

They should be in the portal tomorrow if they haven't change their mind. Let's see if any comes back.

What?!?

As I understand it, when players ‘enter’ the portal, the university has to actually submit it, and that can take 48-72 hours. I would be happily surprised if they aren’t all in there eventually, but the fact they currently are not appearing isn’t unusual.

Ellestad may stay. But I believe the others are gone.

All five are in now. Allred and Davis both have a Do Not Contact Designation.

Still not a word from Sam Landry. ??

Sam is waiting to see who the pitching coach will be.

Come on man ...

Sam Landry is an elite softball pitcher and there is no telling what we have missed out on by the short lived tenure of Justin Robichaux as a softball pitching coach

when a Cajun athlete enters the portal to test the waters in an arena which we are unable to provide (NIL worth) and is not successful, under today’s climate, we should always do a complete evaluation and if that athlete makes the team better if they are accepted back, they should be accepted back

Are you insinuating that he hindered her progression?

Are you saying one more year under Justin is what Sam needs?

Personally I think Justin was fantastic at calling pitches but sometimes wondered how he could be good at teaching a new "softball" pitch.

Somehow he did it.

ps That was an underhanded comment. ;)

I am suggesting that Sam is an elite player

I am also suggesting that Justin was working his way to being an elite softball pitching coach and his legs were pulled out from under him before he fully achieved that status

neither of which have a compelling relationship to the other

go talk to Karley Heath’s dad and find out what he believes Justin meant to Karley’s accelerated performance on the mound and it would help one understand

Is it a secret? Seems like, his testimonial would have been a good recruiting tool.

I don’t think it is a secret at all . . . he told me . . . but that boat has now sailed

I agree, that does not read well . . . so I am definitely not saying that . . .

That would indicate that Allred and Davis already know where they are going? (Following GG I'd assume)
