Barring another 0 win conference season, I can’t see anyway he doesn’t get 4 or 5 years for sure. Even another winless conference and I think he gets more than 3 years.

One more match to go. How many hit the portal? I'm guessing at least 3 leave. Off-season should be interesting. Barnes has to be feeling some pressure likely going 0-20. Let's say they improve to 4-16 next year which would put him at 8-52 in conference over 3 years...will that be enough to get another year? Where will they go?

I'm not saying he does or doesn't. Merely curious to what others thought. Ultimately it will depend on if the AD (assuming Beth Goetz) feels like he's making enough progress.

With all the transfers out after last season, and likely more to come after this season, its indicative on how the players feel about them as a staff and Jim as a coach. Going 4-16 your first year and 0-20 your second year with a team he built himself is not a pretty sight, especially for hawk fans. It is a tough conference, but with the additions, it will only get more competitive from here. I can count on my hand how many conference games could have been won this year and none of them were pulled off. Time will tell for sure.

Ortega is in the transfer portal—probably a mutual decision.

Former Hawk Addie VanderWeide plays for a D3 national championship tonight against perennial power Juniata.

Claire Ammerral—setter Central Michigan—is in the portal and being followed by Iowa VB. I was impressed with her when we played them. I told my daughter she would look good in black and gold during the match. You never know.

Guessing Meitzler would not get a full 4 years. Also, I would expect at least 2 libero/ds types as Cole and Dennis are not likely to be back. I would say there are 4 possibilities for backrow help so far. Cautiously holding out hope for an athletic pin & middle as well.

A coaching friend said Cole and Dennis both went into the portal but I cannot confirm? Any other Hawks?

Moravec would be a true loss. She has a bit of funky mechanics, but has true potential. She is the one 1 would not want to lose.
