I respect people NOT programs! Actually, I guess I respect programs, too.

Any D3 program....and to a lesser extent, but for the same reason, any D2 program.

Any D3 program....and to a lesser extent, but for the same reason, any D2 program. I cannot say the same thing. There are many D3 programs that I view not so kindly. Those who really don't care. I have spent way too much time in the last two weeks trying to find scores for D3 matches. It's not just about winning and losing. I find plenty of scores for D3 schools that lose almost exclusively but then I can't find scores for teams that win. When we used to pull scores from the AVCA site, we used to run into teams that wouldn't even turn their scores in there. I realize there are limited budgets and coaches have to do this on their own, but I find it sad that coaches don't think fans are interested in more than game scores (i.e. 3 - 1 or whatever). That's the kind of shortshrift I expect from ESPNU, but not from someone who is interested in promoting their volleyball team. Unfortunately, I find that is the culture in certain conferences.

All service academies.
Those young adults are achievers and some achieve AA status in various sports but not always Football or Basketball and probably not VBall. Then they put in a minimum of 5 years service protecting our country so others can play VBall or whatever.
That works for me.

I haven't seen any great programs recently, but the 2001 Long Beach State media guide was really well done.

Well, I for one respect Wisconsin. I've been to a few games up there and either win or lose they were always nice to us. And classy when they come to visit at Huff.

Minnesota - obvious reasons, Hebert, players have always been solid people Isn't this a violation of the guidelines laid out for the thread? I have to believe ugopher already supports Minnesota. No fair promoting your own team! Hmmm....can I remove the violation by replacing MN with Ohio University?

No respect for Purdue University? Have you been there? It's awful! Define "awful". I think it's a pretty campus. No, it's not like Virginia's campus, but it's nice. To me, Rutgers-Newark is awful.

I've been there quite a few times and I wouldn't call either the campus or gym awful. The gym used to have this really weird set up where we played "awful" but then that's the whole idea of home court.
