Miranda Elish transferring to Oklahoma State — Justin's World of Softball
Wow!
This really makes me mad.

What a B****, hope she sucks

What a B****, hope she sucks

I understand the sentiment but this is uncalled for.

 

[NBhornfan]

I understand the sentiment but this is uncalled for.

We can't yell for equality in sports then treat them different then men. She did a shady move because of "mental health". I refer to her from here on out that's what I'll call her.

I don’t think you should treat male athletes like that either. It’s called class and respect. Have some.

Just call her Shady Elish

While I've become an ex-member of the Elish fan club, I always remember the phrase "what's good for the goose is good for the gander"

We celebrated when 4 Oregon transfers came over to rejuvenate our program. Oregon fans called the 4 all sorts of names.

And as well, getting Molly Jacobson from another school.

Oh well. OSU with Elish will now have 7 pitchers and 1 pitcher/utility on that roster. That's a lot of not-playing time.

When Hope Trautwein from North Texas committed to ou I was extremely let down. I felt like we really needed her caliber of pitching to advance to the level Texas fans expect and are hoping for!
Then Coach White picked up the pitcher transfers of Estelle Czech who I feel was a very good pickup and Logan Hulon who I considered a good seasoned pitcher that could give us some help.
Now with the addition of Hailey Dolcini Coach White has hit a HOME RUN! She is every bit the caliber of Hope Trautwein. I am so excited about this upcoming season and the possibilities! WCWS here we come.

 

[Ellis21d]

It’s official!

 

[Moooooo]

I hope Coach White is speaking literally:

"We're excited to announce the signing of Hailey Dolcini to our roster for the 2022 season," White said. "She is a highly-decorated pitcher that will bring a lot of experience and depth to our team. She is a fierce competitor who plays with passion. Her personality will blend well with our team both on and off the field."

Softball adds Fresno State pitching transfer Hailey Dolcini to the program - University of Texas Athletics

 

[racerx5908]

Happy for her. I wish she'd had longer success at Texas.

Somehow, I was triggered into thinking of the players who were on the roster for 2020-2021 and left after the season. I wondered if some of them caught on at another school and how they were doing. Using the NCAA database, I found information about where they went and what their stats indicate.

So here goes:
Bailey Williams - transferred to Fresno St. Starter. Hitting 0.182. Team is 0-4

Ryleigh White - transferred to Tennessee (where she originally committed to). Closer. Played in 1 game so far on a 4-0 team

Taylor Ellsworth - transferred to Arkansas. Starter at catcher for a 3-2 team. Hitting 0.267

Colleen Sullivan - still retired from softball. Enjoying life as a full time student at UT

Ariana Adams - starting pitcher on a 5-0 Syracuse team. But only finished one complete game. 5.40 ERA. Listed as a Junior

MK Tedder - starting player on a 3-2 Samford team. Hitting 0.267

London Marder - Not playing softball. Student status unknown

The Kansas games aren’t on ESPN+?

Nope. Checked from Kansas side, from UT side, and then Softball America had a viewing guide for the upcoming weekend and Kansas wasn't listed. Radio only.

Great update! I know this took some research but I always enjoy following the careers of former Longhorns who depart our program.
