Agree that we need more pop in the lineup, but thinking that Kinch, Evans, Valencia, and Chavez are going to provide it seems a little premature from a group that only has 21 homeruns in their collective careers (with Kinch having 11 of those 21). I think Evans is on the cusp of being that type...

Falling behind in the count is a pitching killer. Especially with the zone college softball has. Combine that with the number of walks they are giving up plus the homeruns. They are in a tough spot right now. Free bases and the long ball with make winning games difficult. Starters whip...

She was also hurt last year and they weren't sure if she would even be able to play this year. My guess is it's still not better.

Saying the U didn't have the guts to keep JA isn't seeing the whole picture. They wanted to keep her, really tried. But after her 56-5 (55-3 regular) season and not getting a top seed, or getting out of the regional, it's easy for anyone to see that winning a national title as a team from the...

Just to be accurate...Charlotte is good, maybe not quite top 20 (they are receiving votes), but they just knocked off a talented Virginia Tech team that was ranked #5 5-2....Rochard pitched for VA Tech, so it's a legit win.

Extra Inning team Profile Golden Gophers team profile Last paragraph: "One of three B1G teams to earn selection to the NCAA tournament last season, the Gophers enter 2022 with more than a few questions about what they’re made of and where they’ll shake out in the conference standings. Some...

I agree, but she only hit 4 innings in a game twice last year. Hardly enough to be considered a legit Saturday starter. Unless I'm missing something that should suggest otherwise.

I'd bet Dueck leaving has nothing to do with Pease.

I wholeheartedly feel the same way. I don't know if Hollifield showed enough for them to not go out looking in the portal for some help, both this year and maybe next.

Also, just from what we saw in the fall, I think it was safe to assume that Leavitt was going to be the #2 anyway.

Michigan is going to be tough to beat this year. But like most of the B10, programs are still sitting on a bunch of kids that are using their extra COVID year. Look for a big turnover in talent after next season across the B10. As far as who we are losing, losing the possibility for kids that...

Pitching got a little thinner. Dueck is no longer on the roster. You’ve got to think that the portal will be in play around semester time.

That was the year they beat Oklahoma in Norman in the regionals if I remember correctly. That win alone probably got them the invite.

The team doesn't get to choose to go to Clearwater. That is by invite only. And from what I've heard, that field of teams were the ones invited to go when COVID messed up the schedule. So the teams invited this year are based on the seasons they had 4 years ago....the 2019 season. That would...

I've got both the 2021 and the 2020 seasons in unopened boxes. :)

Not sure if this was noted elsewhere, but Partain quit before fall started.

I also agree with the unimportance of recruiting rankings, but it looks as though some future Gophers are getting some respect. No mention of Burnett anywhere...seems a bit odd, but again, I don't take too much stock in the rankings. These are from the most recent extra innings top 200 of the...

My guess... there is more to it than just the softball.

Word is.....Hostettler is in the portal. Already gone from the roster website.
