2022 SB and beyond.

Didn’t miss any softball. Well aware of our slapping and singles. Our home runs and extra base hits have dropped in the last 4 years. What has gone up - total hits on the season.

All three.

Give me your opinion if your were the coach? Do you expect these kids to be immediate impact players?

As a player do think you will sit the bench, be a role player or start as an incoming transfer? What about the current players what do they think? A lot of kids that are in the portal aren't experienced and they entered the portal mostly because they weren't playing. But there is also the high impact transfers eg.. Bryan.

This should be interesting what do the fans think?

I can't imagine any player transferring from a situation they committed to going somewhere and wanting to sit the bench or expecting to not play. I think its pretty much the same across any sport but the player is looking for a better situation that may or may not develop.

Well sure, they may EXPECT a certain scenario, but then reality becomes different.

Look at that QB who transferred here from Maryland. Lots of people were excited and thought he was going to come here and be the next Cajuns starting QB. Levi Lewis had other plans, and now that QB is gone. Can't remember his name off the bat.

You must have missed a lot of softball because we have had some of the best slappers I've seen in past years. They could slap, bounce the ball or bunt. We use to refer to them as the softball track team because they were so fast if they put the ball in play it was difficult to throw them out.

Slapping is what you do when your kids can't hit.

There is no correct answer as how many transfers should be brought in. I personally would like to see the team as all freshman to seniors, but the truth of the matter is, if a transfer will better a position, no matter what position that is, and no matter how long that person has occupied that position, then you bring in a transfer. That may be 1 to 9 transfers. Winning the world series is the goal every year. So what ever it takes to get there and win, you do it.

Coach Glasco knows what's doing. I was upset at some of the girls who left last year, and wished them well. We faced a couple this year. However, and this may or may not have to do with the transfers brought in, but I never felt this team this year had the "it" factor. I knew they would be good and never give up, but never did I feel like they had "it".

So is it because the amount of transfers brought in, or was it just one of those years? Don't know, but I am definitely looking forward to next year.

GEAUX CAJUNS!!!

Give me 9 Sophie Piskos.

[CajunSaint08]

She has elite stuff already. Her fastball is at 70, she changes speeds well and most of all she spots her pitches. Barbers Hill (Mt. Belvieu, Texas) is ranked #2 in the county. If everything pans out we will have 3 big time pitchers next year. The future looks bright and with kids like this the Cajuns may not be shopping the portal as much.

I like the thought of 3 big time pitchers. We need big time pitchers. I know they are not easy to come by, but great pitching will over ride sketchy fielding. The other thing we need is gorilla ball hitters. But pitching should be our #1 priority each and every year.

Please tell that to Nerrisa Myers she could do both do you remember the Katie Smith hit to beat Kentucky in the regionals I could go on and on. We had slappers that could put it in the hole and get triples out of it just saying.

Slapping is what you do when a player has extraordinary speed!

Keli Milligan was pretty effective for us leading off.

That leadoff batter for LSU (also wears #4) is a slapper and pretty darn effective. Went 5/11 vs. us in the three games last weekend.
