In the immediate future, RPI Futures is liking Minnesota a bit more. It had been "projecting" three more losses for the team but now thinks it will be two (presumably, OSU and Nebraska but PSU now a win). Honestly I like our chances against OSU and Nebraska, especially the NE match. You do?

Honestly I like our chances against OSU and Nebraska, especially the NE match. Pretty low chance Minnesota takes more than a set off Ohio State in Columbus considering they got swept by them 3 weeks ago at the Pav. Nebraska is overrated but that match being in Lincoln is going to make it tough to really have a good shot at winning. That Penn State match is the huge test left on the schedule imo in which i could see it going either way. Winning that one and taking care of business in the others they will be favored in is a realistic formula to solidify a top 10 seed.

Honestly I like our chances against OSU and Nebraska, especially the NE match. I do too actually, it’ll be tough especially for away games but with our block improving that’ll be a struggle for NE and I’m hoping we learned a lot from the last OSU match…. I’m also an optimist 😁 Penn state actually worries me more because they’re more of an unknown, new coach and new players we haven’t faced before Also - Schnicles in her Instagram stories says she’s signing either today or tomorrow 👍

This is why the Minnesota job is such an attractive job, there are top 25 recruits committed to the program without knowing the coach. They know the fanbase and administrative support is top notch and have no worries that a good coach will be in the works.

We shall see. It looks like Schnichels is signing today and also she just won the Ms. Baden award too.

No surprise here but Stella is the Star Tribune Metro Volleyball Player of the Year.

Based on the ending of this article, it sounds like its more likely than not that the two Swanson sisters will stick around. “My heart dropped because I had been wanting to be coached by him since I was 10,” Stella said. “I’ve been to all his camps, I’d seen how he made my sister great, and I want to be even greater.”
Finding out McCutcheon was not leaving but instead was moving into the role of assistant athletic director and sports development coach allayed some fears.
“He won’t be the coach, but he’ll still be there, which is kind of reassuring, you know?” Swenson said.

At least some stayed true to their word. Welcome Schnichels and Minatee! 👏
Totally petty I know, just feeling a little grumpy today about losing Choboy to the Cornholes, er, I mean Cornhuskers.

If there's any bright side to losing Choboy, it's that MN HAS to be the top destination for any liberos in the portal this offseason. With a stacked roster otherwise, any Lib that shows out in the tourney and is looking for greener pastures might see MN as the best possible option. Most of the other top teams have liberos with remaining eligibility, so MN seems like one of the top teams where Lib will be our top priority in the offseason.

Remember that time it was suggested that Olympic Gold Medal winning coach Hugh doesn’t have what it takes to win under pressure?
🤣 This thread. What a ride.
What a group of people.
And then also that one loser who is so far off target with literally every statement she makes, has absolutely no idea that she’s so stupid, thinks she’s funny and edgy and believes she is the only one capable of forming a formidable opinion about anything, because she assumes that the rest of us have spent no time around the sport (for whatever reason - I assume just because she doesn’t know anything herself, and we are all in the same place to talk about it so we must all be similar?) Idk.. but it literally ruins the experience of any Minnesota thread and half the others on the front page, too.
