Burnt Roux: Donna Bourgeois Transferring

[jerrymac]

_ If what you say is correct, then why wouldn't everyone on the team be looking to get out? I can't imagine that so many young women would put up with that kind of abuse if it indeed happened on a regular basis. I guess some can handle a little more toughness than others. _

WHILE DONNA IS THE BIGGEST NAME TO LEAVE FROM LAST YEAR'S TEAM,SHE IS ACTUALLY
THE THIRD PLAYER TO LEAVE.WONDER WHY?

What gives...gotta me more to this story, with all her accolades and wins over the last 3 years to leave....NOW? Whats the real story?

I hope the real reason does come out in time. It should be noted that David Walker was the one to give the release, not the coaches. I also hope the real reason for Britni Soria leaving surfaces also.

Imagine how bad the situation must have been, to want a transfer in the middle of a senior season. To have to leave your home and family. Having to go to the AD ment that the coaches were being mean spirited. Why not grant the release? She couldn't hurt you within the conference. Why have a meeting with the players to tell them that "there is a special on releases, if anyone wants to go you can go." This because the AD directed the lotiefs to grant releases to those that wished to go. Don't be fooled by words, because the actions of the coaches speak much louder. Good luck Donna, and the others that have left. No doubt not the last. Whispers from some SEC people that its not players that are trying to go to that conference.

Great post guys/ladies, really made for good reading. I was getting board watching future DWTS champ Palin act surprised that she's still in the mix.

It was a pleasure to watch DB handle batters for the cajuns. It will be bittersweet when she puts on another teams uniform but you can't help but wish her the best except if her new team plays the cajuns.

I'd have to go back to read some of the parting shots taken on Yvette when she bolted but her leaving didn't kill our program. DB's leaving will not either.

One day the Lotief's will retire, leaving behind their impressive accomplishments and guess what, the team will survive.

To sum up, the Lady Cajuns will survive and if all goes well so will DB, the Lotief's and yes, even LSU. I guess when all is said and done, life goes on and so must we.

David Walker is a trip.

Players are invited to leave at will and coaches are given forever contracts.

From what I understand Soria just burned out on softball and no longer wanted to play. It was said that she is still part of the team just not as a player. So I don't think there is a problem.

Ashley Ray transferred to Nicholls State, but she started only seven of 43 games played in the previous two years.

[Sonsissymia]

my lasting memory of her is from that wcws game where an out shoulda been made at third [if i recall correctly], but wasn't, and the camera then caught her on the mound dropping one of the most apropos f-bombs i've even seen an athlete drop. i'm not being critical, i thought it showed her fire.
