Quote:Taryn Kern broke out as a freshman sensation on the Indiana softball team in 2023, but her Hoosier career is over after one season.
The second baseman announced Monday that she will be transferring to Stanford to continue her collegiate softball career.

Looks like she has a shot to break into the starting lineup.

I nominate BobK Cardboard Poster of the Week. This news deserves its own thread.
Who says NIL is everything in college sports? Maybe outstanding coaching and a decent academic institution can outweigh NIL money. The conference is not dead yet.
I need to find out her GPA to see what admissions is allowing these days. I assume the admissions thing is a done deal for Taryn.
Thank you 82lsju for the link. Here is an excerpt:
She led the Big Ten in eight statistical categories — slugging percentage (.930), on-base percentage (.575), OPS (1.505), walks (45), hit by pitch (23), runs scored (68), RBI (68) and home runs (23).

Kern was in the portal for more than A month. No doubt in my mind Kern has been admitted

We really needed some power and she seems to provide it. She is on GoStanford's webpage so there is no doubt she is in. She hit almost as many HR's as our whole team hit last year.

If Kern chose Indiana over Stanford in the first place, why was that?
Why assume there is no NIL component to her transfer?

Absolutely fantastic news (though still sad about Alana's fifth year). Alana + Kern etc. would have made Stanford the definitive favorite to win the national championship. As is, Stanford will definitely be among the top contenders for the crown.
