I must have missed it!

Don't think the sky's falling, just not impressed. Everyone keeps taking in top transfers and we keep striking out

Non-ag tag checks out.

Not every coach is going to walk in the door and pull a schloss. Give ford some time. We may go through a full bottom out first.

I didn't see it anywhere either.
Just by coaches telling me.

No I wasn't accusing you of sky is falling stuff.

Just I guess a poor attempt at a joke - look at previous post before this - I was accused of sky is falling mentality which was just total BS LoL

What is alarming is that it doesn't look like anybody from ASU will follow her here!!!!!

She can't keep Herzog or Lee!!

Dude ????
Hahahahahah

So exclamation points means the freaking sky is falling ??
Catch a grip !!!

In my opinion yes it is ALARMING!!!!!

Do you have another term that you would prefer that I use???
Maybe it won't unnerve you so much????
Maybe it's the exclamation points????

Yes she couldn't get either Herzog or Lee to stay!!!!

Factual statement…..

Does that mean the sky is falling ???
I wasn't even thinking along that line..

But yes to ME it's Alarming!!!!

I thought Coach Ford's 2 assistant coaches were labeled as "elite recruiters". If so, what is taking place with recruiting?

Can we all take a step back and remember this team was not good the last 4-5 years. We are naming said players on that team. Lee, is a huge loss, as for others not so much.

As for recruiting, just wait to all the musical chairs get put into place…

In the words of Aaron Rodgers to the packer nation a couple of years ago "R-E-L-A-X"

That's just laughable!

We need to land some players soon. If we lose 4 or 5 to the portal, that means we need to add 6 or 7. Our roster was already small.
AgDad77
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
According to my figures?
We had 18 on the roster.

6 are not returning??

That leaves only 12

So need probably 13 to reach 25??

As a senior, Herzog hit .248/.341/.395. Of the regulars, that slash line puts her as about the 8th best hitter on the team.

In the circle, she was 9-8. By the end of the season, she was arguably the #2 pitcher on a bad staff.

KBA is correct; her departure isn't devastating. Remove the emotions. Objectively, she was maybe an average SEC player as a senior only because she was a two-way athlete. That spot can be upgraded.
AgDad77

Hahahahaha - PLEASE

Don't you even follow this team - She was Hurt!!!

If you seriously dont think Herzog not coming back is a major loss and can be replaced easily then you are beyond reason.

Thats is just so bizzare!!!!

Remove the EMOTIONS???
Emotions dont have a damn thing to do with it...

Old man yells at clouds…in all caps…with all the exclamation points.

Your posting history is pretty clear in that you're emotionally invested in this team and highly opinionated. That's ok. Just accept that there are alternate opinions and quit trying to shout them all down.
AgDad77
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
Not trying to shout anybody down actually - but to say that herzog is not a big loss is just not being very informed.
That's just a knock on a great kid who couldn't hardly play the outfield because she could barely throw overhand.

Wicked Good Ag
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I think both Lee and Hertzog are big losses.

But I will wait to see the final roster be developed.

We will know shortly who is in the portal both coming or going in next few days.

Yeah but I was figuring on 5-6 incoming freshman.

Yes - you are so correct.
Let's hope for that many anyway - lol

That's what I'm saying and it isn't laughable if she wanted to continue to pitch, and be a DH every game, as well. I would've taken her back with her understanding your just pitching for us this year. We'll see if we can fit you into the OF/DH once a week but your here to pitch.

This team needs more than 5-6 freshmen. The team must add some SEC type transfers.

No one said otherwise. We are talking 5-6 transfers and 5-6 freshman.

Wow, I hope you're not spreading your thoughts to incoming or potential recruits. Honestly, I wish I would've put on here when Ford got hired who would be leaving, the names that have come out aren't surprising and I thought we'd lose 2-3 more.

It's always been my understanding that our recruiting class plus her recruiting class would intertwine( not all of A&M or ASU's would come to Aggieland) and sprinkle a few transfers in.

Let's be honest, realistically in order to offer some full rides to studs especially pitchers we had to lose some. You would be surprised how many are/were on the roster that have/had full rides and hardly contributed. Some never even seen the field, which I'm sure Ford is scratching her head about right now, looking at the books from previous years.

If there is a bright side to losing Lee and Herzog, which at the moment may not be, it'll be freeing some additionally money to offer more quality recruits.

You are just so correct!
We have had some kids with some big $$ that just didn't contribute at all!

And yes you are right - the bright side to losing Haley and Mak is the dollars that will be freed up!

You are spot on.

Need to be recruiting 2025 #1 nationally ranked softball player from Conroe, Tx, Alisa Sneed. 5 tool beast. Power and a burner. Also runs track and plays basketball. Great kid and family.

For every current or now former player and recruit there is a backstory unknown to most of us. If any are not thrilled to be part of the new regime, they and we are advantaged by their leaving or not coming to Aggieland.

The absence of impressive, public talent acquisitions thus far is surprising, but Ford deserves our trust that she will, given a couple of years, rejuvenate a highly disappointing program. Let's embrace the change we greatly desired.

We need to give it a rest. At least for 3 days.
