Is Mili Sylvester(HAWAII) transferring? Do you have a reason for asking this? Otherwise you're gonna get yourself banned Mili follows the transfer page. But she has since high school so thats why im assuming they are guessing it Wait I lied, stella does. But still, Mili aint leaving. Hawaii has and always has been a dream school of hers. Shes the last person on the team I could see leaving |

I know it’s a completely different sport, but I wonder if it is happening in volleyball. Bryce Underwood, the number one recruit in the country in football flipped his commitment from LSU to Michigan, basically was bought by a donor of Michigan. Barstool Sports just posted how it happened. My question is if people think this is truly happening in volleyball? I just really don’t think the money is quite there in volleyball NIL to influence players that much to either transfer or flip commitments. Maybe people have insider info that this is happening in volleyball that I definitely do not, but I can’t see it. IMO players chase championships in this sport more than they do NIL money. I posted this in this thread because there are lots of posters who think players didn’t transfer to their team because another school had more NIL money. I spent some of my childhood in Michigan so I still follow some of the high school sports there and have been watching this develop. I think it's worth mentioning that he is from Belleville, about a 20 min drive from Ann Arbor. Last year, the broadcasters in the state tourney were mentioning that he was debating staying or going away for college. All of that aside -- NIL is absolutely out of control if we're really at the place where another school can publicly offer someone else's recruit a larger NIL package and everyone's like "¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ok alright then!" Why are they even allowed to speak to him if he's already committed to LSU? I know it was probably like someone sliding into his DM's like "Hey, Bryce, random Michigan booster here I'm hearing there's like 23 million good things going on for you haha hope you open your recruitment!!!!  " But it's still so crazy to me. When Canady left Stanford softball, everyone was like "Oh okay that makes sense, Duke's ace is graduating and they're a way more competitive program, cool" only to see her transfer to Texas Tech with a first year HC and then we find out about the $1MM NIL deal and it's like... what are we even doing? A kid is truly being advised by adults out there to chase a $1M paycheck today in lieu of a Stanford degree? We're operating in weird times. Sorry for hijacking the thread, but I think this is somehow the most relevant thing to be written in this thread today. |

i genuinely miss when this was the wildest things ever got -- I remember when Nwanebu announced going to Texas the whole d*mn sport went berserk. That would be buried in page 7 of the transfer thread these days. it had its own thread at the time and it was MASSIVE. I remember that thread so vividly. Even holmans one got some momentum Now you have former POY leaving and its like 3 post lol. We all just want Lexi to be happy. |

I mean, the school/coaches technically weren’t involved so that’s not tampering, right? Maybe I am underestimating the “big dog” NIL volleyball schools, but I would be shocked if this is actually happening. |

Maybe I am underestimating the “big dog” NIL volleyball schools, but I would be shocked if this is actually happening. I was pretty shook by the softball situation, but I don't see why someone leaves Stanford unless they already know there's serious money waiting for them on the other side before they burn that bridge. So, my point that I didn't really successfully loop back to (lol) is that if it can happen in softball, I guess it is something that can also happen in volleyball. |

Canady leaving for Texas Tech was a probably one of the worst things I’ve ever experienced as a softball fan. NIL or otherwise, I was just extremely disappointed. All those goats I sacrificed on behalf of her going to University of Texas died for nothing. I must’ve got the ritual wrong 😩 |

I just can't understand the point of transferring to a program that will finish at best second in the worst power four league. |
