Softball transfer Carley Hoover


Where did this good news come from? I haven't seen anything posted anywhere on the interwebs about it..and I follow softball pretty closely.

What I have dug up about her:

--6'2" and throws almost 70mph (which is equivalent to upper 90's in baseball)

--Pitched the first week of the season at Stanford, then had some sort of freak injury that sidelined her the rest of the year (couldn't find out what it was)

--Played nose-tackle on a 10-under state championship football team in South Carolina

Stanford's coach retired at the end of this past season which was their first NCAA tournament miss in 15 years.

No idea why she transferred, but if this is true, this is a HUGE grab for LSU. In fact, I would bet she can get a medical redshirt since she only pitched in a few games and be able to have 4 years at LSU.

Apparently there is some politics with parents at Stanford which led to their coach retiring or something. Stanford had behind the scenes drama or where they called for the resignation according to the softball board (Ultimate College Softball). Quite a few threads about Stanford there.

WELCOME, Carley!!!
