It looks like in 2026 we'll be getting a pitcher who had an ERA of 0.22! In one game, she faced 15 batters, no- hitter, 14 strikeouts! I can't wait to see her! Ayla Turner is her name. She also batted .492.

She isn’t ranked as the #1 player in 2026, but I genuinely think she has a strong case with how dominant of a two way player she is in the circle and at the plate.

I think she will be a program changing player when she arrives along with the rest of the #1 ranked 2026 class.

LSU has 7 commitments for 2026. Impressive #1 recruiting class. 5 are 5-stars in top 11. Beth continues to get top recruits.

Torina gets the studs but can't coach em up.

She coached em up good enough to have the lead in the 6th inning or 7th every game vs Texas and Berzon blew 2… is that Torina or the pitcher?

She also coached them up enough to lose 2 against SELA

Yes she did, all I’m saying it’s never all one way…players have accountability too…Speaking of SE who was the pitcher that couldn’t hold them after we tied the game?? Oh yeah it was the same pitcher who gagged all season and the 1 that went in the portal!! She was checked out mid way through the season and LSU is far better off without her.

I get the feeling she really struggles balancing the lifestyle a head coach demands at this level and missing her kids growing up, and I'm not being critical if her priority is her kids then maybe she needs a lifestyle change


Her kids are at school all the time and she helps coach their teams. Her being a mom has nothing to do with whether the team is successful or not.

Plus she has strong family support that helps her and gives the time she needs to be both a very dedicated coach and mother. Her family is large part of the success of the program and why we have so many top recruits seriously considering LSU.

UCLA sophomore pitcher Kaitlyn Terry is in the portal. She was 41-8 at UCLA.

I am sure OU is all over her but she follows LSU softball on instagram

ETA: in fact I think LSU is the only program besides UCLA she follows. Could be nothing but could also be something

she follows Georgia as well and those are the only two she follows.

Nick Torina, BT’s husband, followed her a couple days before she entered the portal, so I think there’s been some contact. He typically only follows players if there is some interest in them being a Tiger

Unfortunately, no chance in hell we get Terry. Best shots: Texas Tech and OU. I'd put us a firm 5-7 option for her.

UCLA fans also worried pitcher Addisen Fisher might leave. She was Nat'l Gatorade Player of the Year a year ago.

You don’t have any basis for this at all. also Torina annoys a lot of us but that doesn’t mean the program isn’t a really attractive option and experience for players.

I seriously doubt Tech is going to throw another blank check for a player and just like Alabama football it wouldn’t be shocking if girls might want a different experience from OU.


Just thought it was interesting she follows LSU.

People love the low hanging fruit comparison of Beth to Les Miles but I feel like UCLA wastes talent at a completely different level

I’m sure she would not want to go to Texas Tech and not pitch in any big game next year.

Actually, I do. Not just pulling statements out of my arse folks. Short of the kid saying it, about as reliable of a source as there is.....

So could it be wrong, yes, but those were the exact words.....
