ISU's Christy Johnson-Lynch tweeted yesterday about a commit. Haven't seen any announcement yet. As did Maryland and Northwestern. Maryland is Katie Scherer from SPRY

Wow didnt see that last one coming. I wonder if any of these commitments are preferred walkon offers or if this early its scholarship offers? Good question. Club have always said hitters get the 1st offers then setters then DS/L. At least from the early part of recruiting, there is a lot of love for DS/L. Why would a player commit this early if they are not getting at least a few years of scholarship? Unless it is THE SCHOOL they have always wanted to attend?

The Texas State head football coach was doing a radio interview last week and was asked about the portal. His overall response was he thought it was good for kids but it has turned non power 5 schools into the minor leagues for power 5. Which has advantages and disadvantages . The disadvantage they now have to discuss as a staff is a kid with no P5 offers gets developed and shines is going to be inclined to step up to power 5 schools looking to fill a need and they need to start having those discussions as a staff of who may not be here next year. But likewise a kid that signed power 5 after a year or 2 and isn’t seeing the PT they expected may look to them for a better chance to play and shine. I assume that applies to volleyball as well. The law of unintended consequences. 🤷♂️ I wonder if this isn't overall a good thing. Looking at the players/students point of view. Scholarships are now (more likely) 'earned' based on college play and not on HS/Club play. The Covid extra year sucks - and that screwed up the number of scholarships available, but this dynamic happens unrelated to transfer portal. Holding the Covid extra year constant (or what it will look like once all the Covid extra years are done) - the end result would be the exact same number of scholarships available, but the scholarships would be skewed more by college production and not projection from HS.

While mid major coaches have a tendancy to sit back and wait to see where potential targets land. I would venture to guess that some will take this opportunity to strike while the iron is hot to land some top OH/MB/Setter 2024's. My guess is,they will land quite a few regional targets that they did not think they had a shot at. Good for them and the PSA's.
You can tell this will probably be the trend given the amount of P5 schools where the majority of the commits you see are DS/L.
That to me is not normal and one would guess most of those back row offers are PWO's anyway.

I'm so glad that the liberos are getting some early love, as I know this isn't the norm. My daughter was one of the lucky ones that was not a PWO and received a full ride to an amazing school in a Power 5 conference. I am aware of some other great liberos noted on the first page of this thread that were also lucky enough to receive 3 years if not full rides. It's probably not too common but they're definitely out there.

Oops. My bad. Just knew she was on the 16's team this year so I thought she was 24. Disregard.
