We found out kidnapping is illegal.

Hopefully doesn't raid us for any more pitchers - 2 is enough

It's best just to say she wasn't happy in Blacksburg
Let's just leave it at that. Life is just too short to stay somewhere that you're not happy and she made a decision that she felt was best for her. It looks like it turned out good for her. I'm not sure that she would have had the year that she had if she stayed in Blacksburg AND I'm not sure the Hokies would have had the year that they had if she stayed. We'll just never know. She's happy, the Hokies are happy, things just worked out.

I started to post something similar yesterday but your post is a great
summary, better than i would have done. Are you "running" a postseason $/per HR? I will donate $10 per hr if yes. If it's easier for me to just send you a check now, lmk. Enjoy the rest of the season .. for some reason i feel confident we will get past the Bama pod.

Very diplomatically and well said.

Well, I'm sure Chip could give you a pretty authoritative answer but . .
. . . general vibe seems to be she felt she should be #1 and likely was going to be #1B at best. I doubt (but don't know) that NIL played much if any role in her not staying here but might have influenced her landing in Eugene as I suspect there was $$ there for pitching.

I thought Chip has said in the past it wasn’t about being #1 or NIL.
It was something else. That could be any number of things. Including stuff that goes on in the locker room that we don’t know about.

No really good pitcher wants to be number 2 in the number one business.
