Dusty, Here's the part you may not want to hear. Most schools looking for transfers are looking for major conference kids sliding down to get more playing time, or maybe a kid from a winning program who can help build their culture. When the player is sitting on a 5-24 team, a lot of school's aren't going to be interested, and the ones that are may not be willing to bet a scholarship on her. She may be be looking at a partial scholarship to an NAIA or something. For the record, a lot of seniors enjoy the spring before without having another season because they love to play volleyball. In exchange for her education, she needs to play a game... that's hardly slavery. Full funding is 12 scholarships but those teams don't play 12 players, they pay people to sit there and be ready to set 61 assists if need be. I think it really depends on the player. Some really good players have taken a chance on going to a program without a winning history - hoping perhaps to be the player to change that. Alaina Bergsma was at Loyola Marymount. She redshirted 2008 and led the 12-17 2009 team in kills. That didn't stop Oregon from taking her as a transfer.
