Buckle up Amos this will be a good upcoming season. I have these two inserted into my starting lineup as of now.

So, what you are saying is she should still be on the roster.

So, what you are saying is she should still be on the roster.

Her being in the portal is a result of our roster being very deep in talented players. While I would love for her to still be here, her leaving is not a mortal blow to our team. The additions of Ellestad and the girl from STM give us two more solid middle infielders, so Griffin's absence should not have much impact in us defensively; though it remains to be seen what either of those two can produce offensively against good D1 pitching.

It is really tough to see some of these ladies with talent that we have become accustomed to transfer out. However depth without absolute results is not what is demanded here. Also, too much depth in one particular area has diminishing returns for both the team and the player at the end of the depth chart. It is neither an indictment of the Coach or the players. We made an additional step under Glasco this year to raise him to Super Regional Glasco. Getting him to CWS Glasco appears to need yet another level of adjustment. When you have only so many pieces to work with, tough decisions must be made . . . May the good lord be with Glasco, Justin and staff to make the right moves with its pieces and elevate Glasco another level this upcoming year . . .

Is everyone forgetting Lillian Soto, the All State Player from the Ruston, LA area? She is listed as 1b/3b and has a big stick. She will be a Freshman in 2024. Don't count her out as Lauren Allred was counted out last year.

Sometimes we lose one that makes a name for herself elsewhere. Hope that’s not the case with any this season.

I get that VO, but generally when we lose athletes in other sports questions are asked. Generally, if the coaching staff is winning I seldom question player attrition in that particular program. Considering this young lady was a top 75 recruit I find it a bit peculiar t that one would suggest she will do big things in the Big 12, but she didn't get many opportunities here this past season.

Yes, I understand the depth but Stormy has now transferred along with others. Wouldn't her opportunity to play increase this fall. Seems to me there is more to the story.

Me and Tim sure ain't counting her out. Tim also had a big stick at La Tech.

We brought in two transfer infielders and bringing in two high school infielders. Seems to be a crowded area.

A player leaving here and making an impact elsewhere, especially one who was not a major part of our success, reflects very well on our program. Softball at UL is not just another sport; we are an elite program and recognized as such nationally. It is expected that we will lose a few very good players who are unhappy with their playing time; that is one of the downsides to being elite. Being elite also lets us reload rather than rebuild.

Griffin has a huge upside.
