Question is does Bubba even pay attention to womens vball? The smart thing is Joe to retire but it doesnt sound to be in his plan. Time for something to happen before we lose significantly more players and recruits. As AD, Bubba has to know his vball program pnce thrived is now struggling to compete.

Sadly, probably not. Volleyball is one of the only sports Carolina has that does not have a consistent winning tradition beyond ACC titles. Zero NCs, zero FFs and one Elite Eight in how many years? Wouldn't be on Bubba's radar unless something seriously wrong happened. And going back to wbb - it took a long time before Hatchell was removed and that's only because there were serious racial and medical allegations that were made against her and her staff by multiple players. And it was that coupled with Hatchell's second wave of mass transfers that led Bubba to force her resignation. It would take something like that coming to light and multiple transfers again (God forbid) in order for anything to be done with VB. The best we can hope for at this point is, like you said, Joe's retirement or at least Joe replacing Susan.

Fully agree. But i hope admin knows how much it would help our program grow again if we reached stability and enetered back into the national stage. Vball is rapidly growing in the south and we are going to lose more home grown kids to better programs and big time recruits arent even going to consider UNC until we get more recognized success. To do that we have to keep our top players more than a year and need current day relatable coaching. Joe wasnt like this til recently. Maybe is the influence of another and the pressure...
I do know there was more to Lauren transferring than just volleyball.

I think there is going to be a lull in "Stars" entering the portal for UNC at least until the spring. I think some are waiting to see how that goes as well as the quality of transfers that come in. We have one potential big transfer in that has not made a decision yet between UNC and a few other schools down south. So a lot of wait and see.
However, I do hear there are a few players not happy about playing time that are entering the portal soon.

While it sucks to lose anyone, playing time transfers are a little more easier to stomach than say, you know, the other stuff.

I hope the exodus has ceased for UNC. Time to focus on the bright future and that coach Joe rights the problems

Unfortunately, it is not going to get better until he mans up and puts Susan in her place or gets rid of her. The girls are not learning from her and do not like or respect her. Now, they all are high on Mike and Kiki and even Joe when he is himself. So, that dynamic needs to be addressed.
Otherwise, I think the next few weeks we still see a couple of roster changes with possible minor transfers and some transfers in. The portal is probably going to explode across D1 once the tourney is over.

That sucks that it's just one person standing in the way of this team having success. I don't know how deeply Lauren feels about things, but it would be great to know that if Susan is gone that she would change her mind about transferring. Find a way to put Kiki on the payroll please!

Don't fret UNC fans, There are some good jobs out there that Joe can recommend Susan for. Then he can elevate Kiki.

You can pile on Susan, but Sophie Fischer never played for Susan, so that doesn't explain that departure.

Sophie didnt like the vibe of the team....felt the girls were stressed and not communicating well due to the coaching environment.... I also think she rose in the rankings and knew she could play somewhere not "rebuilding."
