I must also say: I'd have an easier time accepting that they are not in the pool because the team voted as whole to not go to the NIVC or if they decided not to participate based on injuries. If Sagula declined based on pride just like Hatchell (WBB) did, I'm not cool with that. The seniors deserve it as well as the underclassmen in gaining postseason experience. Not UNC specific, but from what I've heard, seniors often would rather pass on the NIVC. It is finals time, so that would be a lot for everyone to handle

true to finals being an issue....
I just know that players were unhappy with coaches and the morale the first 10ish or so games....then things turned around and most players then became happier and more at ease with success. I hope the latest set back does not cause players to rethink their future at Carolina. I can tell you if Joe loses more players to transfer like the past few years, esp our star players, we will have a new coaching regime in Chapel Thrill next year.
Hope it doesn't come to that but the first one needing to hit the road needs to be Assistant number 2....

I guess I overestimated the importance of the tournament. I know it is by no means as prestigious as the NCAA tournament, but I thought more people would be excited for a postseason experience they might not otherwise have. But then again, you look at the field and see that they really had to scrape the bottom of the barrel this year with 9-17 TCU...

I truly wish we could find a way to keep KIKI as more than a volunteer....she and Mike are the ones that really helped with the growth. That would require some commitment on the part of the school. They would need to sponsor a Visa for her, since she isn't a citizen. Hopefully, they can find a way!

I don't have much knowledge of the coaching staff and missed the games you all are talking about, but to Susan's credit, I think everyone should keep in mind how much of a strength blocking was for this team this year and which coach took the lead in that arena. Obviously coaches should not be fighting over on the sidelines, but there was a lot of improvement this season prior to the final two-match collapse According to my knowledge and source, Mike took over the front row during the time of the improvement. I could be wrong but that was what I was told. There was still a lot of improvement all around before the last two games, but just because things go bad, you cannot disrespect and degrade your players. Criticize yes.

Lauren Harrison is on the portal and from what I have heard she will not be the last.. another possible exodus is coming for the Tar Heels.

Such a shame after the come back this team made this year....from last to 3rd in the ACC. Goes to show players will work with you if you respect them. those last two matches led to some true colors being shown. Pieces were there to be Top 25 next year but I agree, she isnt the last probably esp since she is close to several other players. I think a coaching change is probably on its way.

Welp.
That's the one I was most afraid of. Here we go again.

I had hear rumblings from some of her former club teammates that she wanted to transfer last year. Would not be surprised if she ends up at UGA. I think she has a sibling there?

If more players end up leaving, it's time to let this current coaching staff go. Do what wbb did and go out and hire a young successful coach and start over. It's working out just fine for wbb so far.
