Since we haven't really seen her play, it's hard to say whether or not Taylor Johnson is a loss for Long Beach. However, with Juley apparently healthy, Johnson would have ended up watching for three years before getting a chance to play full time. Probably a good move for her. I guess Long Beach is in the market for another setter since the heir apparent Claes decided to play sand instead. Or do they already have a freshman setter coming in? That was the dumb move. In a down year for LBSU, BG had the opportunity to bring in a fresh face with good attitude that would change the team chemistry for the better but he didn't. It's his call and we can see if it was the right one next season. I would have gone with my 5'11" lefty with good attitude instead...

I had seen the thing about Hudson and completely forgotten about it. I've gotta think that Johnson looked down the road and saw a lot of tough competition for the setting job at Long Beach and saw an opportunity to go to a program that will be rebuilding for a few years. I think she may very well be able to start at Tennessee, while she probably wouldn't have started at Long Beach anytime soon. Either way, I hope she ends up in a situation where she can play and contribute.

Some real interesting misinformation re: the LBS setter situation. last year's setter still has only one good knee...and that situation is NOT going to change...no cartilage left. The setter who left was never going to start and the coaching staff helped her find a good fit elsewhere, which is something that BG is very good at doing. The transfer that they brought in, who will be the starter next season, in all probability and who is already enrolled and practicing, is the real deal and will make LBS a much more competitive team next year...lots of coaches scratching their heads wondering how BG and his staff pulled this transfer off!!!

Bill - I can say this with 100% accuracy that you do have most of your information correct. TJ could have been a starter at LBSU if the transfer did not happen. I also have to add that TJ has an upside and it could have been fostered but decision was made not to invest...

It was discussed somewhere on here a few weeks ago.

The addition of Jenelle Hudson led to the dropping of Taylor Johnson's scholarship, which led to Johnson's transfer to Tenessee.

No offense to the player but I saw Iowa State play many times last season and she was just okay, not sure most of the coaches care.

A good get for Tenesse and a dumb move by LBSU!! Tenesse will surprise a few after the incoming class gets a year under it's belt. I am sure by now, they know what they are walking into and have decided it is a good fit. So watch for TN to make a decent comeback in a couple of years.

If you did not want to be offensive you would never have posted this. You obviously have an agenda
