The best way they keep the recruits and really get the program going is to hire a coach with really good D1 experience. Not a politically correct applicant or local player/club coach but a real coach with some proven success. And do it quickly.

Paula has led UCI to 4 of 5 losing seasons since 2010. I realize she was a coach on the US National Team; however, her record at UCI has been mediocre at best. I don't believe Weishoff is the "#1 draw" at UCI. The program is floundering and the only reason she brings in quality recruits is because of the academic reputation of the school.

Pretty much the entire history of UCI volleyball can be described as "mediocre at best." Two NCAA appearances in what, 35 years? An Ali Wood/Kris Roberts (RIP) squad back in the day, and (I think) once during the Kelly Wing era? It's not just Paula, tough to win consistently at UCI.

It shouldn't be difficult to win there, should it? Great school, great location. Yes, you have to fight for recruits, not easy, but USD has had a lot more success.

I lived in Irvine for 15 years and was a big fan of UCI sports. I was thrilled with the choice of Paula as coach. The future looked bright when Paula's first match was an upset victory over Cal. It has been an uneven road since then. I think a new coach could be a good change. The problem is UCI like other UC schools is in a yearly battle to balance the budget. I don't think volleyball will be a budget priority.

Volleyball should be the only priority!

Defending on the time of say and lighting. But the dress really is black and blue

Why would she make this move?? A better question: Why would UCI have given her a new 3 year contract?

Paula takes the Concordia job for two reasons: Job security and I believe UCI only gave her a 1 year extension. Concordia absolutely LOVES Paula. I honestly think Paula's skill set is made for a Concordia where I think she will do very well until she retires.
