I’m sure she’s got big money calling her name. Wouldn’t blame her.

In addition, the 2 position coaches that recruited her have left coaching - Katie Richardson Strehlow and Carly Wynn. But, I'm still hoping it's not true.

No, but sure makes me question following college softball beyond my own kid at this point.

Oklahoma's gonna win every title until Patty retires and then half once her kid is running the team anyways
 

The timing is really odd to me. I wonder if this was coaches throwing money at her to get her into portal. Regardless still think MN needs a more experienced head coach that can develop players.
 

If she's got a legitimate personal reason why then fine all the best to her, but if she's just chasing a ring and a paycheck then I hope karma hits her hard. We've dealt with this before and still haven't fully recovered.
 




The thing I don't understand is:

Why go through Fall Ball, when you are going to transfer? Why not transfer during the summer, so you can play in the fall at your new school?
 



Who on earth is going to play SS now? lol - Hopefully they can find a replacement in the portal. Might be a challenge.

Gotta believe someone came through with money. Enough to change her mind.

I agree with Gopher68....this wasn't about money.... though now she stands to make a lot from it. I think a lot will be shown from where she ends up. If it's anywhere but somewhere in Cali or Arizona, then yes, it's about money. What will really irritate me is if she ends up at Nebraska...her younger sister just committed there, even though they won't play together, I would say it's pretty shady if she ends up there.
 

Hard to believe there's much money in softball still outside of the top 2-3 schools and 5-10 players

If everyone on Oklahoma gets 40k to play there, then certainly there are other schools paying well too. No it doesn't compare to football or basketball.

I'd be surprised if Oakland nil value is above 20k
