"Knowing that college volleyball is a "full head" scholarship (Jerritt's words - which mean they can't be split amongst players) of 12, that means that that 8 of the players are walk-ons." Even if it's all or nothing I believe that there is a way to "split" scholarships, by giving a full for one year but giving nothing for another year. So if player X gets a full for 3 years and nothing for her 4th year, she has effectively been given a 75 percent scholarship. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think this is something that is done. I believe the rule is that if a player is given a scholarship as a true freshman, it is for four years (as it can't be revoke without cause). So, this would be the majority of our players.
But, for those who are not given a scholarship as true freshmen, they can be awarded one on an individual annual basis. Perhaps this was the situation for Jhenna Gabriel. And, maybe Claire Hahn received one this season as it seems (based on assumption) that we only had 11 scholarship players on the roster.
This isn't true. Being a head count sport, unlike, say beach volleyball, simply means you either receive 100% scholarship for a year or nothing. Schools CAN and DO frequently offer partial scholarships consisting of one or two years and those can be in any configuration. So you can get 1st and 3rd years or 1st and 4th. It's also worth noting that technically a school is only able to guarantee a scholarship for a forthcoming year. So although a player may have a commitment from a school for future years, that commitment can be rescinded (for a variety of reasons). Regarding Gabriel, given that JE has previously said that she was lightly recruited, I would doubt she's got a full scholarship. At most I'd anticipate it was 2 years, especially since Shook was a much higher recruit.

Once it’s offered freshman year, it’s a for sure four year deal. It cannot be taken away. I vaguely remember reading about it somewhere on this site

For Jhenna Gabriel, most of us believe she was not a scholarship player her first semester at Texas (Fall 2018). But, she was most likely awarded a scholarship Spring 2019 or shortly afterwards; Texas was below the 12 scholarship maximum the last year or so, making it pretty reasonable to award Gabriel a scholarship based on her performance on the court.

are we going after Jordan Middleton and Adonia faumuina? There’re both with the 2022 class. Jordan is an OH and Faumuina is an OH and a S. Jordan is 6’2” and Faumuina is 6’1”. Maybe not Faumuina since we don’t need another setter until 2023 but... who do y’all think we’re going after?

At most I'd anticipate it was 2 years, especially since Shook was a much higher recruit. What you say is true for non-power 5 schools. The Power 5 schools + Notre Dame voted to forbid taking away scholarships for performance reasons from any athlete who got the scholarship in their first year
"In 2015, the NCAA Division I “Power 5” Schools implemented a rule that has the effect of “protecting” Division I student-athletes from having their athletic scholarship cancelled or not renewed for any athletics reason. Quite simply, a coach cannot take away a scholarship for poor athletic performance. The rule will NOT apply to athletes who are not receiving an athletic scholarship in their first year of enrollment at their university. (Example: a volleyball player not receiving an athletic scholarship in their freshman year, but promised one in the following three years, will not receive the protection of this new rule.)
– Other Division I schools and conferences can choose to follow this rule, but are not required to do so. So, an athlete receiving an athletic scholarship from a university that is NOT one of the 65 mentioned here might still receive a one-year scholarship which a coach can choose not to renew for the following academic year. – It is still possible for universities to cancel or choose to not renew a scholarship for reasons that are NOT related to athletic performance."
If a power five conference team wants to give a partial scholarship (i.e. not all 4 years), they should not give a scholarship in the athlete's first year.

Heard anecdotally here that Faumuina is interested in USC. Not sure about Middleton.

More props for Nalani
Nalani Iosia Height: 5-7 Position: Libero Year: Senior School: Redondo Union (Redondo Beach, California)
Longtime Redondo Union coach Tommy Chaffins pulls no punches when talking about Iosia’s abilities on the court. “There is no other player in the country who can set and play libero at the level Nalani can,” he said. “I would argue she is the best libero in the country and would be a top 15 setter nationally, even though she has rarely set since her freshman year. That is how much skill and talent she has.” Iosia finished the year with 291 digs and 94 service aces en route to sharing the CIF Southern Section Division I player of the year honor with teammate Kami Miner. A second-team VBM pick in 2018.

I watched those two videos in full to review the college serve being discussed about her, but by the second set she was already stand serving due to numerous errors. Her classmate #10 I believe was a better ts server. I am compiling a list of upcoming players with wicked top spin serves so if you guys have a link to other players please post them. Thanks.

I don’t think any coach would pass on her but maybe I’m wrong. However, I’ve heard she’s very pac-12 interested, particularly LA schools.
