Yes, but Texas is still paying them a lot.

Good for them that their recruits panned out but Texas has no problem paying big money for transfers in their other sports. And they will do it in softball as well. Your mercenaries comment is just wrong and being done probably bc of your jealousy of Techs success.

Are you calling all the transfers A&M gets in all our sports mercenaries as well?

Texas is rewarding their players with NIL money for performance which is to be commended. As for jealousy of Tech, that's laughable. They have been on the softball map for two years because of the buying of players.

And Texas is buying their players as well.

You do realize they have the highest paid roster in football the last two years. Right?

Do you also make fun of Indianas NC in football?

Are you sure you are not a longhorn nc you sound just like one of their fans. We win and get players bc we are Texas, everyone else wins just bc they cheat.

Yeah I'm going to call BS on that. I don't think Texas even has the best roster, much less highest paid. I could see one of the richest programs, but not highest player payroll. That has to go to Tech where they poached multiple stars off big time p4 clubs.

But no one knows apart from Canady what the girls are paid, so you get a bunch of speculation and tweets as sources.

We're talking about strictly softball on this thread, right?
Signed out of high school
Kavan
Atwood
Stewart
Wells
Martinez
Maloney
Nichols
Henry
Gutierrez
Goode came as a sophomore and Altmeyer a grad transfer.

Take out Kavan and that was the starting lineup yesterday.

They have to replace Atwood. Maloney and Goode in the field.

They have Star pitchers waiting in the wings to replace Gutierrez.

They will be in the mix again next year without a doubt.

Last but certainly not least, Mike White is a top 2 coach and recruiter in the entire Sport. Gasso at OU is probably 1.

And I'm afraid that Trish Ford is only a little bit better of a coach than Jo Evans. When your successor at ASU comes to your home regional and beats your butt twice, it doesn't bode well for the future of your program.

You keep arguing a point I'm not arguing. LOL

I said many posts ago, great for Texas that their recruits panned out.

I think I have been pretty clear, it is that Texas is paying their players plenty of money as well. And you agreed with that. Yet you call Tech players mercenaries.

Texas has the highest paid football roster. They have plenty of money to throw around. But Tech starts throwing money around and it freaks you out.

And as I have also pointed out A&M gets high profile transfers in most all our sports. Especially the ones that are doing well. So by your logic, they all are mercenaries.

It does not take much research to find it. But you go ahead and keep calling BS.

I've made it clear we are only talking Softball and you continue to bring football into the conversation.

I'm sure every athlete at Texas, Texas A&M. Tech etc is getting some money or cashing in on NIL. That's great for all of them. What I'm saying is Texas, for now, Is doing the right and honorable way and winning with actual recruits and coaching unlike Tech who went to other schools and poached their best players with suitcases full of money. If you can't see that then there is no hope for you.

And yes, I have skin in the game for this particular team as a family member is part of it and I couldn't be more proud.
