Exactly. So TBH I'm unsurprised that more 2023s haven't committed already. It seems wise to me to wait. Narrow it down to your Final Five, take your official visits, then make your decision. Yeah, I’ve heard the same thing from a couple different recruiting directors. A lot of 2023s want to take their official visits. Only problem occurs when; while you're waiting for your visit, a school goes another way and you miss out. It's happened to one 23 already. First come first served. |

That is nice in theory. But alot of schools don't have blank recruiting checkbooks to just allow PSA official visits. They will only pay for the ones they are most serious about and vice versa. Most aren't going to pay for someone who is shopping around. On top of that - finding one weekend for an official visit in the fall when they are in the midst of their HS season is very difficult let alone trying to find multiple free weekends. And most schools try to have all of the commits come the same weekend so they can hang together.
Devin is a stud so she may be afforded that luxury. The majority of PSAs will not.

Just like the state of Texas shouldn’t be judged by the desperate political moves of their governor and some state reps, i don’t think the entirety of Texas’ fan base should be judged by a few drunk college kids. No politics! |

The amount of hate Texas gets is just pathetic 🤣 any thread where Texas is brought up, majority of the comments are from jealous fans who are upset their program is not and never will be on the same level as Texas. Sorry your teams can't make it past the 2nd round🥴 The dislike is earned. I was in Austin for the 2015 match that Texas won 3-2. It was as unpleasant an experience as I have ever experienced at a sporting event. Texas fans were out of control. Vile nasty comments directed at the Nebraska parents . . . And this was before the match began. When Nebraska won the first set it only got worse, complete with objects being thrown at Nebraska fans every time Texas scored. And it got really bad after Nebraska won the 3rd set after dropping the 2nd. I have never been to a place where fans have successfully made the transformation from fans to hooligans, but Texas fans certainly have. When we were leaving the match three of these hooligans appeared in a full run and knocked at least one elderly Nebraska fan down as they grabbed he and his wife’s is red hats as they were going down the steps outside of Gregory.
Three months later when Texas and Nebraska met in Omaha for the national championship Texas fans were not abused. . . they were welcomed to Omaha. We were in the same hotel as many Texas fans and they were treated as fans, not some enemy invaders. I also know people in Louisville and Ames who have been to matches in Austin the past couple of years who mentioned the boorish behavior of the Texas fans. . . Before. . . During . . . and After the matches. Even in places like Washington, Wisconsin and Minnesota, where competition is hot and heavy, their fans are/were civil. . . and those fans understand these events are great sport, great volleyball and should be treated that way-not like a Liverpool soccer match. So, yes, Texas is probably unduly attacked on VT, but I can’t say it’s undeserved. . . Sorry Did you find an usher and report this behavior? We have ushers who have zero tolerance for that kind of behavior and would have monitored a situation of things being thrown at any fan once let alone on every point scored. All fan bases have bad eggs and at all Texas venues there are ushers there to deal with those people. At some venues there is even a texting service and you never even leave your seat. On other threads you've also attacked the student body for screaming or approaching players on the court. This behavior is also not tolerated and I have actually seen our ushers address issues with the Hellraiser group. I have been in a lot of gyms across the country and unfortunately this type of behavior is far too common just so you know. It doesn't happen as blatantly at Nebraska because y'all don't have any real student presence; not because you're above everyone. |

I can't imagine investing in something sight unseen. Which brings me to Carvana... |

The uncommitted 22 & 23 classes have blurred together in my mind. Who are the 22s you're looking to hear from? And, is there a site that's keeping a list? Thanks.

I don’t think anybody is keeping a list…. I think the only like highly ranked girl who isnt committed is devin kahahawai. I might do a little research and put together a list when I have time! |
