Nieto and Pekich are only beach players now. Supposedly they were added mid season last year due to all the injuries on the indoor team. Harward is both beach and indoor.

This is a moot point. Of course he's recruiting players that would play both indoor and beach so he can get more bang for the buck. He doesn't have the funds to separate the programs, so he needs players that want to play both sports. However he will take a quality player that plays indoor only. The reason for these girls leaving has nothing to do with being only indoor players. We need to start a Long Beach thread on transfers so not to hi-jack this thread.

Most transfers happen because of lack of playing time and I am sure the majority of LBSU's transfers fall in that category. Transferring has become too frequent across the nation and the numbers seem to increase every year. Wish all the ladies leaving the program the best and I hope LBSU brings in some great new recruits. Actually kids leave for a myriad of reasons. Some get homesick, others have family issues that bring them back home. Some get disgruntled and want more playing time. Some just find out that they didn't fit it and decide to seek out greener pastures. Some just end up getting too big a head and feel that they are better than the program that brung them to the dance. In the case of LBS, I understand, all of the aforementioned apply to the kids who are leaving. They will be better next year than this year, IF THEY CAN FILL THE SETTER VOID. Personally from my sources at the school it was my understanding that their setter was not the most popular player on the team in both the eyes of the team and the fans. I am also being told from sources that I know within the school that they have a good number of kids asking to transfer in, so only time will tell how this all shakes out. Blaming coaches is always convenient but rarely the real reason that these young ladies move around....it you just look at the number of kids who don't stay with their original choice the numbers are staggering and getting larger every year.....

I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not, but you do realize that men's basketball, with just 15 more D1 programs than volleyball and a comparable roster size, had over SEVEN HUNDRED transfers this season, right? So hopefully that was sarcasm.

The Transfer thread for 2016 said there were a total of 259 transfers last season (in no way an official number). This article from ESPN states that in men's basketball there were 700+ transfers in 2014 and at the time of writing there were 475+ transfers and growing. It took longer to log in and write this post then it took to find those numbers. Are you sitting on information that says volleyball has higher transfer numbers? insider.espn.com/blog/jeff-goodman/insider/post/_/id/4899/top-10-transfers-and-complete-transfer-list

Don't 25% of all college freshmen transfer at some point?

FWIW: college.usatoday.com/2015/07/15/one-third-of-undergrads-transfer-colleges/"Transfer rates among U.S. college students are at a high, with a recent report showing that more than one third of students choose to transfer universities at least once during their academic careers. A July 6, 2015 study published by nonprofit National Student Clearinghouse Research Center shows that of the 3.6 million college students surveyed nationwide — all of who started their undergraduate careers in 2008 — 37.2% transferred between universities. In addition, of the students who chose to transfer, 45% decided to change schools more than once." All colleges report their freshman retention rate, and a few schools retain over 95% of students, while others lose 20% or more after the first year.

Don't 25% of all college freshmen transfer at some point? Over 30%. Transfer rate among athletes is significantly less than the national average.
