Well yes, I also realize that many schools out west aren't turning over many schollies in 2018.

56 is a really good get for Northwestern. I expect her to start right away. If the Iowa program is going to turn around, it'll be with the help of 54 & 52. Look forward to seeing what they can do. Me too, but Iowa is already headed in the right direction. 54, 52 and 22 will be much welcomed turbo charge. So, lol, what happened to number 22 who was rumored to be Halle Johnston? You said she'd be number 22.

And Texas. Our only 3 recruits are all top 10 Can any of them pass? Well considering one is a middle and one is a setter, I'd say no it's not an exceptionally strong passing class. But honestly Sun is a much better passer than she was a year ago so even her passing isn't terrible.

You must have a PhD in volleyball to figure that one out. IMO Sun will come in being the best hitter/passer on the team even with as much scrutiny as she's been under. I think with a year under her belt, Rounsaville will be the answer to who passes next year for White and I truly think Sun will go all the way around.

In fact, it is so obvious, that even I noticed it.

I guess if "getting buried" means advancing to the Final Four more often than not, I'll take it. Those teams who pass better than Texas but don't advance to the Final Four as often have plenty of weaknesses that they must be trying to address, as well. I mean, up until last season, Nebraska hadn't advanced to a Final Four since 2008. I guess all that good to great passing they had just wasn't enough to make up for all the other glaring weaknesses in their players.

The reason Nebraska had problems getting there was because of the ---> big 10. put texas in the big 10, they loose 2-3 games more a season, they'd be a top 10 seed, wouldn't have made it so easy, so many times.... #truth. futhermore, putting them in the big 10 would have helped them actually WIN championships when they did make it to the final 4 instead of getting spanked so often in there. big 12 doesn't help Texas any!

Yeah, Texas winning regionals against the Huskers in Lincoln and Omaha was easy; everyone knows Texas gets the easiest regional trips. And, Texas repeatedly beating B1G teams during the regular season and in the post-season counts for nothing, obviously.

In one breath you don't understand the concept that there are seven listed starters on the court and in the other you swear that recruiting rankings are just as good as winning a national championship. Winning last year's championship has really emboldened some of the most annoying and clueless Nebraska fans. Not all of Nebraska fans, just you in particular and some of the other stooges.
