Respectfully, you're the one that doesn't have a clue in this case.
Rodriguez knew what her role was going to be with Mealer, Faw and Dodge in front of her in the middle infield. She stayed to be a part of place she likes and was only a few credit hours away from a degree, which she got a year early last week. Most of those upper-level credits wouldn't have transferred to another school.
You seem to have forgotten that Brockenbrough was playing last year until she was suspended and was passed by while she was out.
