Got Samantha Ryan coming in. Canadian national team and JC All-American.

Hope she's as good as advertised.

Yes sir, my post mentioned talent but unproven. She has yet to pitch against an LSU, Washington, Clemson, Florida or even any SBC programs.

Jut should be able to coach her up.

Jut should be able to coach her up.

One of the pitchers interviewed (I forget by whom) was complimenting Justin on teaching her pitch placrment.

What I thought she was going to say was he taught her a new pitch or taught her better delivery.

Since baseball and softball techniques are so different, is that something you think he is good at yet?

So potential. That's fine, but is it the same as getting another pitcher with experience against quality D1 opponents? She may very well be very good eventually, but he will need someone that can help elevate his program beyond a regional again next season. Whether that comes from within the program with improvement from Landry and the JC transfer remains to be seen.

Ryan played with the Canadian National team in 2022 after her JUCO career and also for the 2023 Canadian National team, so she has been pitching against international competition for the last two years. I am not sure how that compares with D1 softball, but I am pretty sure it is better than JUCO ball. If I am interpreting her career correctly, she should have 2 years to play 2.

Sir, would you please put a shirt on

Say what?

Good question. I really am not sure. I personally thought his strengths coming into the position would be mental mind set training and pitch calling. I am sure he has improved on other areas as the game was new to him. I can guarantee nobody will out work Jut as he grows into this position.

T, I have never seen Ryan pitch. I think your statement is fair. Potential just means you really haven't done anything yet. If Coach Glasco likes her then I am good with his judgement.

I'm hearing a lot of, "no worries, we have young players coming in to take their place." Wasn't that a big issue for us? We had a very young team?

If anyone is telling you we have young players coming in to take their place then they are liars. We have 5 transfers coming in, 4 are juniors and 1 is a senior.

I guess those folks that said they had sources that lsu was going to take some of our players were bad sources.
