Nu'u was ranked 2nd...WOW...so much for rankings. Regardless, she got a free education at a good university and got to play with her twin sister. Perhaps winning or getting individual accolades weren't all that mattered to her. OUCH.... headache.....having... trouble... processing.... last sentence..... goes against..... spirit..... of........ modern......college athletics....

What about the fact that Nuu was on the Olympic training team and i heard she had the job, but decided to quit to coach? I mean, being invited to the OTC to train for “JENNY” LANG PING. That shows the talent she has. In my opinion.

I didn't realize that Stanford got the #1 recruit every other year this millenium. That means in 2008, the top recruit ain't going there....at least statistic show...:-) But now that I think about it, Stanford has gotten the top recruit every other year, and either played in the title match or won the NCAA Title oh yes, it was a trend that started in 1999 though there wasn't any prep ranking then but everyone knew the #1 player was Logan Tom. They got the Top ranked player in the "odd"year. for the other years, they still scored a top 5 player like Katie Goldhan (#4 in 2002) and Janet O (#2 in 2006), the "worst" they did was 2004 when they ONLY got Kehoe who was ranked 10th in her class. Man, I do not want to hear anymore Stanford fans complaining about the tough admission to the school. Grades are not near as much a factor in recruiting in vball as they are in football and basketball, that is why school like stanford can compete at such a high level in Vball, for some reason exceptional female athletes tend to take care of the grades more so then their male counterparts, IMO because not as large of a pro influnece and chances as the males have
