Fair point about the softballs....

But I'm still hoping its for the Groff Twins instead.

That would be a nice tip of the ball cap from Rhonda. Thanks for that optimistic view of it. I don't know what her history of doing those sort of things are, so kinda in the dark there. Also, I don't know if she sends out little tweets when she signs recruits like Patty's bombs....or if she does do ...

Do not forget about Mallia Groff, a Lefty, that is in the portal. She was the NE Player of the year from HS in 2023-2024. She will be Soph after her fine freshman year at So Illinois. She also has a twin sister that can catch. More of a defensive player, but NE needs a good catcher. You make a fair...

I saw this on another Board: https://x.com/rhondarevelle/status/1794571734164840671?s=46&t=Ul_xsPCm2gElLVhk3HWZMw To me, this can only mean one of two things (or maybe both!) 1. Jordy Bahl has been pronounced fit for duty and has returned to the roster and starts practice and strength and condit...

Here are my picks for today: Can Baylor pull another upset win over the Gators? I'm going to say probably not. Agree it will be Binford vs Rothrock again. Walton is going to ride Rothrock until the cows come home. And yes, yesterday she never made it out of the first inning--only threw 12 pitches to...

I had allowed myself to get my hopes up after reading some encouraging comments from someone supposedly "in the know" about these things. Now I wish I had just ignored him and moved on. I get that new HS grads and freshmen to be this coming fall have signed NLI's that you can't get out of....

Saw on another board a posting by a Washington Fan that Meylan was "Whooping it up" at Stillwater today for their game with Ariz.

That would make me physically ill if she wound up signing with them.

If she doesn't want to be a Sooner, fine---I'm ok with that. But OSU? That would be awful.

And the overflow from the infield will probably find a home in the outfield.
We should be in good shape fielding wise.
But I would always take a top flight pitcher. Or two.

Excellent.

Six foot blonde I hope.

I don't know about Groff. Taking a poor hitting catcher that is not needed to get a pitcher seems not worth the spend. Since we do know how good some Nebraska HS pitchers can be, it is notable that Groff "holds the all-time high school career strikeout record in the state of Nebraska." Go...

Short and direct. I'm outta here! Don't know if she's any good....but there's no messing around with...

Another pitcher in the portal is Maddia Groff from southern Illinois. she is a lefty that was 30-5 this season as a freshman with a 1.11 ERA this season. https://siusalukis.com/sports/softball/roster/maddia-groff/8633 This was one I was interested in - the X post I saw indicated she and her sister ...

Ruby Meylan.

Was never developed at Washington.

Coach Rocha will do wonders for her.

Nic is the closer I want for the rest of the way. She's always had 'ice' in her veins....going all the way back to her freshman year.

Stats from SA: Danley throws 36% Curve ball, 30% Drop ball, and 20% Changeup for her top 3 pitches Gooden throws 39% Drop ball, 19% Curve ball, and 18% Screw ball for her top 3 pitches These would suggest OU want to have a line up with Drop ball and curve ball hitters (e.g., Brito) higher in the or...
