Maybe they'll play the season in phases... That is my guess. I'm thinking that anybody that plays any matches in the fall will most likely just carry those matches forward into the spring.

Just did two segments with LSU coach Fran Flory for my Baton Rouge TV show. Good stuff. Will turn it into a post on VolleyballMag.com for Friday.

The original schedule for the Razorback volleyball team has been significantly altered from what was posted earlier this summer. (Figures -- the one year that the Hogs are not the LAST team to post a schedule, it gets thrown out the window! lol)
Everything that had been listed preseason is now gone and replaced by an in-state tournament the weekend of Sep 10 (featuring A State, UALR, and UCA).
The Hogs' SEC slate is apparently unchanged from earlier in the year. It starts on Sep 25th, and includes the usual, random mish-mash of weekend and mid-week games that characterize the SEC scheduling office's strange perversities.

Not sure if this applies to volleyball or exactly what they mean by hybrid this fall & spring.

Not sure if this applies to volleyball or exactly what they mean by hybrid this fall & spring. I have heard it will apply to volleyball. Some conference matches this fall, some in the spring, all count toward a conference championship.

Well, considering it's basically a free season I'll take what I can get!

I am sure the teams will be practice at full tilt when October hits and then will be practicing full tilt in the spring. These programs will be way ahead of other since they will have been practicing together for much longer.

Also note that in addition to the eight fall matches, the release says "volleyball teams will participate in spring competition as well, with details of formats contingent on final decisions by the NCAA to conduct spring championships".

I am sure the teams will be practice at full tilt when October hits and then will be practicing full tilt in the spring. These programs will be way ahead of other since they will have been practicing together for much longer. Teams that aren't competing in fall will potentially have twice as much strength & conditioning time as those that are playing in fall. Assuming those playing in fall are playing two matches a week, they'll also get 6 hours less practice time than those that are just practicing. They also don't have the immediate pressure of competition, so will have more time for freshmen to adjust. Unless the entire spring season gets cancelled (which is eminently possible) I can't see any advantage to playing in fall.
