I'm still curious about two top-100 recruits from the high school class of 2018. Can anyone tell us if Lexi Johnson (formerly of IU) and Erin O'Leary (formerly of Michigan) are in the transfer portal? O'Leary dropped out of UM for health reasons and is not coming back. Haven't heard anything regarding Lexi yet.

Just noticed that Kyla Waiters isn’t on the roster for Oregon State anymore. Anyone know where she’s going?

Didn't that happened to Kashauna Williams? I believe she enrolled early at Nebraska and then ended up at Long Beach State last season.

Did Trinity Castaneda, 6'1", Sophomore, from UH find a school to transfer to?

So, the 'transferring for beach' idea was wrong. She's transferring to get a final chance to set? Or just going for grad school? Edit: Nevermind. I see her Instagram says Northwestern Volleyball '20 She's going in as a graduate student. (Via her Instagram)

Why is it interesting that she chose Wisconsin over the other schools? Do you think that Wisconsin is not as top of a program or is it because of players they already have? Because I consider Wisconsin a top 5 program. I think it is interesting she is going to Wisco because 1) Minny has beaten Wisco every match Barnes has played against them 2) I would think she would go to washington or another school that would use her as a libero right away Barnes is good, but if she becomes libero at Wisco she still is not going to better than her counterpart CC

I also thought it was odd that one player would transfer from their school to their one of their "natural" rivals.
Like......Sun -> Nebraska.
Anyone other transfer to rivals anyone can think of? I know that there are rules to highly discourage this type of transfer/poaching with most conferences.

Transfer to a rival increases interest in future match-ups, which would seem like a good thing from a fan support basis. More tickets sold is a good thing for any program/conference.

Player intensity probably increases as well, if that is possible in a MN vs WI match.
