Mullen now at #3 according to PrepDig for the 2025 class rankings Would you mind sharing the list (or at least the top part of it) for those of us without subscriptions?

How does his resume speak for itself? He won a title as an asst coach. There's lot of asst coaches out there that have done this. He led LB to a top 4 finish in the Big West? Again, not unique. Most of his accomplishments are on the Men's side. All he has shown on the women's side is that he changes his mind every 18 months. Actually, he coached the setters at Nebraska, and when he returned in 21 he was faced will a very mediocre setter in Nicklin Hames and he set out to redo and retrain her… and it was a roller-coaster the first half of the season, but Hames got better and Nebraska playing with 3 freshman made it to the 5th game of the championship match. How he turned her into a championship setter, even though it only lasted for a year, is still as impressive as anything he has ever done coaching. Of course, the other season he was here, 2017, he convinced Cook to make a huge offensive change after 3 early ooc losses. Yeah, they went on to win the NC, but the most memorable thing about the season, outside of beating Texas in the Regional final, was the massive improvement in the team from August to December in KC. He turned really good talent at Nebraska into championship caliber teams, but at LB he turned mediocre talent into competitive but not championship level teams. I think he just realized if he wanted to coach the best college talent it would probably never happen at LB because the best players are following the NIL money, and less than 20 schools have substantive NIL volleyball set-ups and 80% of them are in the B1G/SEC and the others appear to be Louisville, Pitt and maybe Florida State. I guess he could have grinded it out LB, but the easier path to final fours and championships is SC. I believe SC also has fixed limitations, but it’s clear that’s where he an Kristen want to raise their family and run her business. 🏐 So your argument for Tyler's impressive resume is that he was able to help the #1 setting recruit in the country and the #4 overall recruit in the country into someone capable of winning a title? I still don't get it. DBK is probably giggling to herself as she takes USC's backup and third string setters to Final Four appearances.

For sure. And Hildebrand has nothing to prove. His resume speaks for itself. IMO this is likely all about the $$$ and he'll be short listed for whatever job he 'applies' for next. How does his resume speak for itself? He won a title as an asst coach. There's lot of asst coaches out there that have done this. He led LB to a top 4 finish in the Big West? Again, not unique. Most of his accomplishments are on the Men's side. All he has shown on the women's side is that he changes his mind every 18 months. Not many assistant coaches have a better resume or a depth of experiences. Yes, still has something to prove as a HC but thats true for all assistant coaches. usavolleyball.org/coach/tyler-hildebrand/#:~:text=Tyler%20Hildebrand%20was%20named%20the,among%20BNT%20athletes%20and%20coaches.

How much weight are really put into these list? I get the spark conversation. Ryan Hunter is being slighted and there are a few extremely questionable above her. and who on this list of 25 do you think are "extremely questionable"? Personally, I've always questioned the legitimacy of a flat ranking of players in any given class - if anything, it should be by position. How anyone can rank players who don't do and aren't asked to do the same skill on the court is beyond me, however, I can say that this class is deep with pin talent. I'm not sure where I put Hunter among the pins in this class, but what I do know is that the following players from the top 25 list are very very good and should not be on the list of "extremely questionable": Sigler, Vander Wal, Mullen, Spears, Damaria, Davis, Quest, Tindall, Vinson, Kinney, Jager.

I’ll say this if she replaced anyone on the list nobody would question it. But let’s say slide her in at 12,which I personally still fell Is too low.
