I think Kauling transferred in before Tread made the decision to come early Here's the thing though, didn't the coaching staff know? There was an article about Tread and the others (Blanchette, Larson) leaving school early. Tread stated that the coaching staff had discussed and asked him to do it all along. So, they at the very least should/would have shared that information with Kauling. Idk. I don't have any insider info. That's just what I thought and seen

I think we all knew but Oguz leaving. Can’t blame him. Wade didn’t give him valuable playing time or any incentive to stay.

I think saying Kauling wasn't given an ample opportunity is correct. But Oguz proved time again when he was put in, he couldn't for some reason terminate. His timing with contacting the ball during live game situations was always off. And the only thing that worked for him was his serve. I wish him the best but Oguz was given opportunity at times even against weaker competition and couldn't put it together. He looked uncomfortable and you could see it in his facial demeanor every time he was put in. Like he couldn't get use to playing in front of a large crowd or something.

All the best, obviously he’s game wasn’t at the level to compete in the Big West. his first school at Jamestown was a good fit, but maybe he can thrive at a smaller SoCal school to be in a more exciting place

From what some people have been saying, you may have to add Kurt Nusterer to that Hawaii list.

Next season, it will be a two way battle for the BWC Tournament Title, between LBSU and UC Irvine. Both teams will have enough coming back that they will be head and shoulders over everyone else. Do not see Hawaii challenging for the BWC Tournament Title, or even getting into the NCAA Tournament next year. Main reason, Hawaii will have talent, but they will be extremely young. Being so young they will not be consistent. But watch out, come 2026 and 2027, Hawaii will be a team that will be awfully difficult to beat. Hawaii could even win back to back National Titles, maybe even in 2028, if Charlie Wade can come up with a Setter, for that 2028 team.

UCI won't have any experienced setter at the helm with those returning pins. That's a question mark if I ever saw one. LBSU losing more starters than us! Hawaii will be young but talented. It will be a dog fight next year. But to count Hawaii out is crazy.
