I haven't seen this anywhere yet, so might be some worthwhile tea. Word is that Jordan Wilson will be leaving USC after this semester and intends to transfer to Arizona. Apparently, it was a miserable semester for her. I think she played well, but there must have been some other factors behind the scenes to prompt this move, if what's being talked about in UofA VB circles is correct. If true, that would be a big boon for Rubio at Arizona, which has a commitment from a top 2024 OH. USC featured her in an insta posted AFTER this. #Awkward http://instagram.com/p/Cl4uouOv6x2

She did just follow the college transfers Insta. Her boyfriend also recently committed to Arizona She's a great player but how much is another pin who doesn't pass going to help Arizona? This move could be more about being with her boyfriend than it is about volleyball. If she is happy being a 3 rotation OH at UofA but can spend more time with her BF, then she should do what is best for her. Maybe volleyball is not all that important to her.

Why can't she be a six rotation player at Arizona? Also, sure Arizona isn't a school you think of when thinking about those that compete for an NCAA championship, but it's not like it's some underfunded program playing in a one bid league.

I agree…it wasn’t me who first mentioned her as a 3 rotation player. Someone asked the question of “what a 3 rotation player like Jordan can do for Arizona?”I was responding to that question.

They’re just looking for a fight. Don’t take it personal 🙄

It's just Arizona has significant needs at like 4-5 other positions (L2, S, MBx2, Libero, DS?) so it just seems cumulative to bring in someone who replaces the one thing they have decently covered.

I guess she could walk on if Dave Rubio doesn’t want to use a scholarship on her. She is from the state of Arizona, not Tucson but still close enough to home in Phoenix.

I agree that Arizona needs help at most positions. However, if one of the top pin players in her class wants to come here, you make room.

Heard a report that TTA was in NYC at the Texas vs Illinois basketball game on Tuesday. If true, question is, was she there watching Texas or Illinois?

"...-Isolated because one of the “punishments” was that I was not allowed to be with my team and in the first game of conference they told me to “go ahead and sit in the stands” (while still being on the team)" This was just covered in my USAV safe sport training for abuse of athletes. 100% this is emotional abuse. That’s what stood out to me as well… that’s just unacceptable for a coach to separate a member of their team like that. It’s not only abusive behavior towards the player but also the rest of the team, it’s trying to turn teammates against each other. Really hope that it’s addressed and the appropriate action takes place, would HATE to see any other player treated like that
