thanks for narrowing it down. Robinson is following UNC. I never could figure out why she lost her starting spot this year. She came in hot early in her underclassmen years, then slowly faded. Didn't she hit about .200 each of her first two years? That's not impressive for a MB.

She came in hot early in her underclassmen years, then slowly faded. should be Robinson after her recent visit. She was also injured early this season so it took awhile for her to get back to form. Will be a great addition and she knows the Shaffmaster sisters well.

That's a good get for the coaches if it verifies. I was told its not official yet until her Northwestern degree is conferred, same with another setter transfer on top of Neelon. Robinson and Shaffmaster know each other, and Robinson was Indiana Player of the year back in 2017. A very solid player in the Big 10 her first 2 years, a lot of power and pop on the ball.
This makes me wonder what this means for the current pins. I think Buckner and Parker are completely capable of playing, but they were the beneficiaries of bad pin setting....Zinger on the other hand may be a good blocker, but offense is not nearly as terminal....

Because at UNC, the primary focus is on Basketball, Football, and maybe baseball. When all other sports do well, its a bonus. Let's see... NCAA National Championships won by UNC by sport... 21 Women's Soccer 9 Field Hockey 6 Men's Basketball 5 Men's Lacrosse 2 Women's Lacrosse 1 Women's Basketball Hmmm.... I don't see anything for baseball or football. I'm sure that's a mistake. Important sports like that surely must have brought in trophies.

Do you really think schools care as much about trophies as they do about money?

Do you really think schools care as much about trophies as they do about money? Those sports only bring in money if fans buy tickets. If you're a fan, wouldn't you rather see a winning product? The football team has never been top notch, whereas the women's soccer team has been permanently awesome, with equivalent numbers of legends.

So interesting tidbit that could mean nothing....
Nia Robinson came for a visit to UNC; she follows all the coaches on social media and some of the players, including Neelon, but in the past few days has unfollowed UNC Volleyball....
The other setter the coaches were trying to recruit seems to have hit a stalemate as well.

I wont be surprised if the other setter's deal won't happen. With Neelon in, UNC its back to 6-2

I’m convinced the players are on to the whole social media follow leads and know people are watching. I’m sure they get a kick out of the speculations and guesses made based off of follows. Times are so weird now.
