She’s from Leander, TX which is relatively close to Waco. She’d be a good fit for their program. Sit a year and take Pressley’s spot at OH1. Baylor should get all the transfers! Never too much!

I hear an outside frog is looking to hop to a new lilypad.
Spill the tea, John Cougar.

This is what happens when you lift restrictions on transfers. You have a carousel of player movement in offseason. College is suppose to be about education first but seems to me it’s become more about sports. It’s so annoying when people say this. It’s not about either, it’s about THE ATHLETE and where they are going to be happiest. That is all.

If there were no sports you really think all these athletes would be transferring all over the place? Give me a break

If there were no sports you really think all these athletes would be transferring all over the place? Give me a break There are plenty of students on the campus that are there solely for the education and atmosphere. An athletes education and perception of their atmosphere are going to be affected negatively if they are not happy where they are playing sports at. Why should anyone stay somewhere they are not happy if there is somewhere they can excel athletically and be happy at? There will always be athletes on a roster that don’t mind not playing much and will enjoy where they are at no matter what. Others won’t. It is NOT a big deal and tbh should only ever be respected as a tough decision made by a young person trying to enjoy the beginning of their adult life.

Because I’m my opinion students should put education above sports

I had a great college experience, but I wasn't the happiest. The environment was very stressful and competitive in a very crappy town (and it was at a time when that town was at its crappiest). I was also "working" part-time. But I learned a lot and came away with increased self-confidence and the feeling that I could design and build almost anything except a time machine. (No flux capacitor.)
If I had to do it all again, I'd say 80% I'd do exactly the same thing and another 20% I'd go to my second choice school. When I look back upon my college years, I don't have a smile on my face but a "This is a necessary step" feeling.

Everyone is entitled to a wrong opinion 😊 The notion that immediate happiness is the be-all and end-all of experience is horribly misguided. It leads to an unwillingness to perservere in the face of short-term adversity. I hope that the current notion that whatever doesn't bring immediate joy must be instantly rejected is fad that we will all outgrow.

McCall? Didnt think she was with TCU long this year, any updates on her? I didn't believe it, but I don't see McCall on TCU's online roster. That's a huge loss for TCU. EDIT: She played in their first match in the NIVC, but didn't play in their last three. Her individual roster page returns a 404 error. She's gone. NittanyLions ^^^

Why would you get up at 5AM everyday, put your body through the ringer for 2+ hours straight at least once that day, not to mention pay attention in the classroom, study, and still try and live a life if one major part of that equation is draining on you. If an athlete knows (or coach lets them know) that their experience might not be what they want it to be then please for the love of volleyGod, tell me why an athlete is obligated to stay? Again not every athlete who could have had more success somewhere else wants to leave(Orie A. @ Texas) so why demonize an athlete for thinking for themselves? Sorry I get that you don’t like when an athlete leaves your favorite program, but it’s not about you or your “feelings” about the matter.
