I mean, he was at Oklahoma 3 seasons and Missouri State 4 seasons before that.

and players love him

Well Wisconsin does too. Just an observation he's been on a few jaunts. Hopefully this is for a long haul. Great guy. Deep Big Ten volleyball roots. Cousin played for Badgers too.

"we're going to be uncomfortable a lot; we're going to push and push back"

I like that.

Class act. Sign me up!

Leah Johnson for president!!!!!!

Add in some eye candy (Jake Barreau) and we've got a pretty stellar staff here to start with.

I kid, but in all seriousness, I expect them to hit the ground running in the B1G very soon

Great hire!

anyone else having trouble playing the press conference? all I'm getting is a black screen

Mike Becker. He's a definite positive. He sees a face and immediately knows everyone's name. MSU is fortunate to have him come along for the ride.

I’m not so smitten about bringing her assistant with her, she’s has a future, but could have done better than JB

I would not be shocked if a few follow her over to MSU. They need the talent at MSU as the cupboard was almost bare.

Yeah on this note. Even if they follow, where does Michigan state stand? Bottom half of big ten. Curious to know length of contract, this is no easy job. They struggled last year and their best player by a mile just went in conference.

It’s a great hire but hope she can get some momentum so she is there to stay

Leah will build a winning organization!!

The question is why would a coach/school/team want someone back that entered the portal for greener pastures?
