For the 2012 2013 class, Texas only had one scholarship to award, and it was gobbled up by Chloe Collins pretty early in the process. Not sure how it all went down, but the summer of 2011 2012, Texas had a scholarship free up. Soon afterward, Chiaka Ogbogu committed. I know Nwanebu had wanted to leave the state for college, but if all 3 of them for the 2012 2013 class had signed with Texas out of high school, things could have turned out differently in so many ways . . . ooo it was Ashley Bannister, she had stopped volleyball... that’s right! Wow, I had no idea! |

Kind of surprised we haven't heard of any 2022 commitments.

Kind of surprised we haven't heard of any 2022 commitments. There’s not been any 2021 commitments either. We have zero recruits committed after this year’s incoming class. That’s a little scary. |

I suspect the coaching staff will look for a transfer for 2021 because they will only have one scholarship available. |

I did see Ella Swindle like the tweet! Which would be an awesome get for us next year! She’s one of the top setters for the 2023 class. Fingers crossed!

It's been mentioned on here that the 2021 recruits we offered wanted to play immediately, and they didn't see that happening at Texas due to youthful depth at their positions; so, those recruits committed elsewhere.
Coaching staff can be very selective with only one scholarship available for 2021 with Ashley Shook being the only senior at Texas for the coming season. It wouldn't surprise me if the pandemic causes an in-state recruit who committed to an out-of-state school over Texas to reconsider their verbal commitment and decide they want to play college closer to home and family. In all honestly, I can't even determine at which position a 2021 addition (out of high school) would be ideal. Perhaps the coaching staff is still holding out for Kami Miner (even though just about everyone believes she is Stanford-bound); but, it is already mid-June for Miner not to have publicly committed, and the early signing period is only 5 months away.
I don't know how the future recruiting classes will ever get "balanced" numbers-wise, especially if we don't sign a 2021 recruit; it appears incoming 2020 Madison Williams will likely take a medical redshirt season, so that does help the numbers a bit.
Obviously, the transfer portal has changed the landscape immensely. And, it's almost imperative to keep an open scholarship available for an elite incoming transfer; that's just not as easy as it sounds with only having 12 scholarships total to award.
For 2022, we'll have scholarships vacated by Eggleston, Davis, Butler, Petersen, and possibly Gabriel (if she is on 'ship). So, I'd expect a signing class of 3-4 players. OH would seem like a huge necessity; but, the 2022 OH signees would be batting Melanie Parra and Madison Williams for those two starting spots.

It depends on what she wants. All things equal, she would probably go to Nebraska, but with Orr, it just doesn't make sense unless she wants to sit for awhile. |

Are you assuming that Gabriel is still not on scholarship with one 2021 ship open? I thought that Davis likely took the last open ship. |

Has anyone heard of any 2022 offers Texas has given out? Or has seen any 2022 player tweet or say anything about being contacted by Texas? While it would be nice to know as a fan, I am glad that volleyball PSAs don’t tweet about every offer they receive. |
