My sense is I agree with you, they have plenty of outside help this year. But she was red-shirted last year along with Smrek and while she has a covid year to use if needed, I think that is a lot to ask and have her sit on the bench for two years when she is good enough to play. I think in the Red / White game she had the highest hitting percentage. It really isn't accurate to say either of them was "red shirted last year", because of the COVID rules. Or at least it doesn't have the 'normal' meaning if they technically did. In normal times, an athlete has four years of eligibility and five years (after their enrollment in college) during which to use them. But for anyone who 'competed' during the 2020-2021 year, none of it counts against those limits. For example, Devyn Robinson enrolled (as best I know) in the fall of 2020 and played the spring season. But none of it "counts"; as of the fall of 2021, she has four years of eligibility and five years during which to use it; in normal times, we'd refer to her as a "freshman" with a red-shirt year available to her. Like Rettke etal, Robinson gets an extra COVID year, those as her first year instead of her final year. I don't know when Jardine, or Smrek, enrolled - let's assume it was the spring semester of 2021; ie Jan 2021 - or whether what they did by working out with the team and being dressed and on the sidelines counts as 'competing" or not, but it does not matter. Whether they were on the roster and "competed" or not, as of fall semester 2021, they have four years of eligibility and five fall semesters available to use them. Jardine can red-shirt for fall of 2021, and play four seasons, 2022-2025

robtearle, Robinson enrolled in January 2020. She was on campus for about 6 weeks before COVID happened and everyone was sent home.

The pandemic has just messed with everyone's sense of time. It has dragged so on miserably long, but I still accidentally think of the beginning as last spring - almost as if a year just vanished from my consciousness, or we'd been placed in suspended animation.

robtearle , Robinson enrolled in January 2020. She was on campus for about 6 weeks before COVID happened and everyone was sent home. And that would normally mean she has through the fall semester of 2024 to use up her eligibility. Because VB is a fall only sport, early spring enrollment doesn't "cost" them anything; that would not be the case for hockey, or basketball, eg. But because of the COVID rules, she has an extra year; she has through the fall of 2025 to use the four years of eligibility she currently has available. Likewise for Smrek and Jardine.

My apologies for getting Jardine's eligibility wrong. It gives me a little less of a concern about her future. Still, I hate to see her sitting on the bench this Fall when she is so capable. Thanks for the corrections from everyone.

Come on! Texas fans seem to think they have Byrd in the bag, as well. I wonder how swrious the MB recruit from Ohio is considering Wisconsin. Not sure what other top recruits are left for 2023. Maybe 2024 will be a blockbuster year for Wisconsin
