Were our ladies provided with/offered and extra year due to Covid?  If yes, do we know if any are coming back for their extra year?  Based on the "Senior Day" activities, it appears all are moving on including two juniors.

It seems from experience....that most gals in softball.....once they get that degree they move on. Plus....I asked a parent....how many schollies does softball get? Was told it's 16 spread out amongst all the players. So not everyone gets a full ride. That's probably one reason....many move on. Because the extra year of "school" isn't free.

Extra Covid year is over, none of the girls have any more eligibility. Softball only has 12 scholarships that are spread out, not 16

Thank you.......for the correction. 

 

And let me add....that as someone who hates the NIL.....I would much rather give to a fund so that all our softball gals, had all of their schooling paid for......instead of giving it to players in football and basketball......who are already getting a full ride.

Right there with you regarding the NIL.

      Who was this? Nothing is showing up in the attachment and I hadn’t heard of an SFA transfer.

      Another NIL Coaching Casualty

      Please move if needed, posting here as it's related to NIL and is probably more applicable to football than basketball. Miami basketball head coach is resigning. The following are quotes that should be of concern to any fan but especially some of your blue blood programs. What happens when you can no longer outspend your peers so your legendary coaches leave? Saban was the most name worthy retirement but there's been plenty others and here's another big name leaving. NIL will be reeled in when the big money boosters lose their favorite coaches, no longer see the wins on their records, and see they can no longer just money-whip their way to success. From the Miami Herald: “At this point, after 53 years, I just didn’t feel that I could successfully navigate this whole new world that I was dealing with because my conversations were ridiculous with an agent saying to me, `Well, you can get involved [with a prospective player] if you’re willing to go to $1.1 million, and that would be the norm.” ... “What shocked me beyond belief was after we made the Final Four just 18 months ago, the very first time I met with the players, eight of them decided they were going to put their names in the portal and leave. “I said, `Don’t you like it here?’ They’d say, `I love Miami, it’s great.’ But the opportunity to make money someplace else created a situation that you have to begin to ask yourself, as a coach, what is this all about?’’ He added that he tried “every which way” to make things work, but “last year was a disaster”, and this year was not going well, either. He felt the new players were not buying in as transfers had in years prior." https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/college/acc/university-of-miami/article297597538.html
