She is for sure in the transfer portal already?? Wait, now I'm allowed back in the Texas thread? I thought you banned me cos I don't have the words Texas or Horn in my name? Honestly I didn't even look at the name I just responded to the first person I saw. If I saw it was your name I promise you that you would have not got a question out of me. Lol like your really starting drama for no reason but do you because I can do the same but I'm not because I'm here to talk Texas volleyball 🤣💯 so if that's what it is then it's going to be that. There are no hurt feelings over here whatsoever 🤣 I got the answer to my question a long time ago so have a good 2020🙌

Do you know if it was a case of: 1) wanting to play on a bigger stage or 2) unhappy with coaches or team?
I'm curious when someone that good leaves a team that has high likelihood (?) of returning to the tournament next year, decides to leave. It's not like someone was pushing for her job, was it?
Definitely #1. According to the UCSB coaches she wants to play with/against the best players in the country and in more matches like the ones in Gregory... I don't know if she expected to actually get the opportunity to play home games in Gregory though! Be great if that happens though. As I said in the tea thread, this is where JE excels. Thanks. I see she just finished her 2nd year. Ahhh, I don't want to get too excited. The other schools are just as "big". But yeah, it would be amazing if she happened to end up at Texas.

So I know she loved the atmosphere. Given how many teams have apparently made offers to her, if she's visiting Texas she's seriously considering Austin.

I know that JE expressed frustration in not finding someone for his single scholarship for 2021. They all want to play now and not sit behind someone. IF he picks up Fleck (this seems how rumors are started. More than one person talks about it!) then it would be an odd situation (for Texas) to have so many defensive players on scholarship.
But, all I know is saw Fleck in person digging out yet another kill shot and groaning, "man, she's getting everything!" during the tournament. Iosia....is an internet debate. And, I've seen 2 years of Petersen - and uh.....

Let's hope Fleck visits Austin when there is some nice, moderate weather that will remind her of Santa Barbara, and gets blizzard like conditions on her B1G visits!

That's the other side of this... How will Petersen react to the visit of someone who is clearly not there to DS. I don't know, interesting to see how it plays out though!

Eggleston, Fields, and Phillips are all following Fleck on Instagram.

Eggleston, Fields, and Phillips are all following Fleck on Instagram. No doubt that's encouraging. But, the same situation with her and some Wisconsin and UCLA players. Perhaps others, too.
She's obviously in high demand. Hopefully, she'll make an official visit to Texas, and that gives us a chance.

Why would Fleck go to Texas if the Longhorns just signed Nalani Iosia and Heinrich is coming in? I am assuming Iosia is on scholarship because she sign a LOI.
Fleck would be fight for PT if she goes to UT. It will be a log jam for that spot.

Why would Fleck go to Texas if the Longhorns just signed Nalani Iosia and Heinch is coming in? I am assuming Iosia is on scholarship because she sign a LOI. Fleck would be fight for PT if she goes to UT. Every player has to compete. But, most likely in Fleck's mind, as well as others on this board, she has what it takes to win the start Libero or DS spot at Texas.
Petersen is on scholarship, and has two seasons remaining. But, senior DS Claire Hahn and Autumn Rounsaville have finished their careers at Texas.
Most of are of the opinion that Nalani Iosia did receive a 4-year schoarship; and, most believe Reilly Heinrich will be a non-scholarship preferred walk-on at Texas. Heinrich signing something on NSD doesn't necessarily confirm that it was full-scholarship paperwork.

Fleck would be fight for PT if she goes to UT. It will be a log jam for that spot. I think you answered your own question. If JE is prepared to give Fleck 2.5 years on scholarship (and I've been informed by more than one person that he is) then he's doing it so she can win the Libero job. Remember, he didn't know she'd be available a week ago. He's trying to do this for the same reason Cook, Sheffield, Rose, Fisher and others are. They all believe Fleck will start for them at Libero. She's a lot better than Petersen (both in terms of ability and leadership) and she'd be a great mentor to Iosia who still needs to work on her passing. Heinrich is a walk on who'll compete for DS duties.

Would Jerritt give Fleck a scholarship? I mean that would be wild to give have 2-3 backrow only players on scholarship. What about Jhenna Gabriel? I know she walked on initially but she must be on scholarship too right? Texas seems to have too much talent. 3 scholarship setters(Shook, Cabello and Gabriel..if she is on one) and would have 3 scholarship for Libero if Fleck signs along with Iosia already being on board and Peterson there now.

I don't think one sole person on this board knows the answers to all those questions with 100% certainty. We'll know about Fleck's situation in a week or so, I'd imagine. And, since the Texas semester begins on 01/21, we'll know if all underclassmen return around that time or shortly after.
Our roster, just like everyone else's, is a work in progress, and changes unexpectedly now and again.
What's most likely the highest priority short-term is if Fleck and the Texas staff are all on the same page of her place in the Texas program.

I can tell you with certainty, Fleck has been offered a scholarship by Texas. Starting immediately. If Fleck takes it, I highly doubt there will be three Liberos on scholarship in Austin come the Fall.
