First time watching Abby Buckingham play, and I was very impressed. She is so smooth and fluid hitting form the outside, and physically, doesn't seem lanky or as if she still needs to grow into her frame. Even though she is just a sophomore, I can see exactly why Coach Elliott offered her a 'ship so early. I think she will have a great career at Texas as a 6-rotation pin hitter. Unfortunately, for Churchill, they were swept by The Woodlands in the 5A championship match. www.chron.com/sports/highschool/article/Woodlands-finishes-dominant-season-with-state-5007036.php

What are the chances Texas could land Hodson?

What are the chances Texas could land Hodson? Probably not very good IMO … her ball control is too good. Texas tends to bring in big physical pin hitters who can't pass or play good D (at least initially).

What are the chances Texas could land Hodson? I don't think she leaves Cali, It's stanford, possibility that Pepperdine pulls an upset perhaps.

Does anyone know who is in the running for 2017 recruits? Sun from Cali, Botkin from Pearland, Warner from Amarillo, Whalen from Wisconsin? Saw in another thread that one of the aforementioned players got Prepvolleyball freshman of the year and has Texas on the radar screen. (I don't want to name who it is though just in case I can't. But I would suggest getting a subscription to PV! Well worth it!) I know a lot verbally committed after the camp this past summer I just hadn't heard if anyone knew of anyone already or someone had already committed.

Yeah and there was 2 or 3 freshman that commited last year too.

Hope Hodson commits to Stanford, but yes, Pepperdine with their new head coach should be in contention. Washington would also be (I think).

Read on LSV that freshman phenom Brooke Botkin from Pearland is close to making a verbal commitment. Anyone want to place bets on Texas?

I haven't seen this posted anywhere in this thread but Orie Agbaji 6'2" OH from Oak Park High School (Kansas City, MO) class of 2016 is committed to Texas.

Now if Texas doesn't win the national championships for the next decade I will be very disappointed! Don't underestimate the SALIMA FACTOR. We will have to see how it plays out.

Nowhere is it stated that they were offered scholarships. Don't know. They can't commit unless they are on campus. Why would Texas agree to a walk-on for a sophomore? Doesn't make sense. I said the same thing about anther team and player two years ago and was informed that sometimes it happens that way.
