probably. soros needs to ditch AU and go after an actual league. I would literally support any actual volleyball league in the US, even if it was the “mid” players out of college😭 I just cannot get behind the AU at all. I like having actual teams to get behind, not fantasy draft rosters every week (although that’s probably a plus for some people, I just think for volleyball it’s atrocious) im kinda over it too.

I also think a volleyball version of TBT (The Basketball Tournament) would be AWESOME too. For those unfamiliar, basically former players from a ton of colleges get together and make a team and play in a massive tournament for a grand prize. Not every person has to be from that college, that’s just usually how they form at first. TBT has gotten so big that ESPN got the rights to it and puts it on their main channels every year. But yeah I’m anti-AU volleyball tbh. I would genuinely rather have something that would resemble the NBA’s G-League or MLB’s minor leagues instead. A place for younger players out of college (maybe even high school) or wherever in the world to come and develop and play higher level volleyball. It would be sold on the fact that they want to develop you and get you signed by a better, “actual” pro league.

P-State fans (some) and Micha Stans will be the ones waiting with baited breath for the opportunity to bash Lauren Carlini the next sub in. So I think ur 'only Badger fans'is a hoot. On the other hand, depending on playing time Carlini has the opportunity to clearly separate where that discussion would then be a moot point. Let's see what happens. Should be an entertaining finals. There are like 2 Penn State fans on the forum lol. And maybe one or two “Micha stans.” It’s bonkers to compare the Carlini homerism to the non-existent Hancock homerism.

Maybe add a few U of M fans and the Kumbaya enforcement Klan to the mix. lol

ah well yeah maybe guilty as charged I struggle with team abbreviations sometimes. If Michigan is UM or U of M then Minnesota can be Minny. Wisconsin and Washington both referred as UW so Wisconsin gwts called Wisky. Penn State I go with P-State or Nitny Lions. 🙂

Most of them are not very nice so i will abstain. Penn state is generally abbreviated PSU, i usually see Minny or Wiscy or just saying the full name of the state lol

I have no problems with fans of international volleyball share their critiques of players and what not. Several of the posters that I refer to do not fall in that category. You can call them 'the love to hate' types.
