Rumor that she is headed to OU… praying that is not the case but all signs are leading to there or Florida. Really looking for an experienced pitching coach

It’s true…Maxwell to OU
As soon as I saw Patti tweet….I message a person from D1 Softball and asked this person if it’s Kelly…..they person said it is.
Just last week, this person told me that it could be between Florida or FSU and that OU is not in the picture unless they throw some serious cash her way.

Not confident in the source but hearing $300k and basically automatic admission in to medical school.

Thought she’d be Florida bound, but OU was always in it from the jump. The longer this dragged out, I had a feeling it could be the Sooners.
She’s having a hard time making the announcement because of the backlash. Sadly, this will hurt her legacy here, especially if she wins a national championship there. It’s literally the equivalent of Kevin Durant.

There should be backlash. You don’t get to commit the crime and the want everyone to treat you like the victim. 
It’s an absolute Kevin Durant/LeBron James super team move.

With another All-American season Kelly likely trades having her name/number forever enshrined on the outfield fence for cash and a slightly better chance to win a WCWS ring. And I say slightly better chance because I think an OSU pitching staff that included Kelly might have been the best in the country next season and had a fighting chance at a natty. Team and legacy apparently didn't mean much to her.
So pathetic. At least she didn't try to get others to leave ala Spencer Sanders. I won't hate her for it like Sanders, but yeah, she's burned down much of her legacy here, hope that ring next year keeps you comfort knowing how many people you let down.

If she does indeed go to OU, she has no legacy at OSU. You can't spend 5 years a place, be the face of the team, and then go to its mortal rival and not be considered a trader, a cupcake. It's a shame because she definitely would have gone down as a top 5 (maybe top 2) player in Cowgirl history. Now she's just going to be one among many pitchers on OU's super team for one season.

Like I said, her legacy has taken a hit. How much depends on what she does at OU. If she wins a national championship and beats OSU in the WCWS, it destroys it and more. Either way, fans and probably some of her former teammates won’t look at her the same, but she knew that so it is what it is
Maybe she can become roommates with Trace Ford!!!
I might be murdered for saying this...but I really don't care where she would go. She had a terrible season last year and in her time here she never beat OU. Eberle and Morgan Day beat OU and one of them is our pitching coach now. Going to OU is obviously terrible for an osu fan because she was obviously osu product for these years but let's be real she won't provide to them any extra benefit than they already had. She only just made it less likely 1 other team to be good outside the recent wcws teams.
We will be fine, we have our ace and we have high pitching in the younger players.

I agree, I could care less where she goes, we could not stop her from leaving anyway so as long she is happy, that is all that matters! Thank you Kelly for everything and I wish her the best!

Last comment from me on Kelly- If she does end up winning a natty I can only hope she feels empty inside when it happens.

Don’t get me wrong, she didn’t have the greatest year but how is being a 2nd team All-American equate to a terrible season?
I do agree some of our hitters will have a good understanding how she pitches but at the same time she’s going be coach by the pitching coach in the country so I’m sure Jen Rocha will correct the issues she had last year sadly.

Terrible season compared to our past pitchers and her past season. Watching pitchers like show, eberle, etc, those pitchers are just so good.
I am wondering if coach G is wanting more drop ball pitchers given Eberle as the coach and our 2 pitchers are drop ball pitchers.
