I believe Laborda. I hope she finds peace and healthier community in volleyball moving forward. Assuming this is true, shame on Eve and co.
The only thing I'm confused about regarding her post: "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)"
I don't think she was with the team during all of conference play, not just the first match. Just went and found the UT-A&M game, which was the second game in conference, and she's not on the bench either.
Since she only called out the first game, it leads me to believe she left the team (or was kicked off?) between the Missouri and Texas A&M game. Otherwise, not sure why she would only call out the first game.

With MINN losing to OSU and Hugh leaving -- how soon before we see MINN transfers in the portal??? Inquiring minds want to know.

They've been in the toilet since Marci took over. Players have cited team drama, poor coaching, bad culture, etc. And of course they're losing consistently so who knows how long Byers will hang on. Players transferring out after just one season isn't a good look. I would be hesitant to play there if I were a PSA. Ok. Let's look at the transfer from Virginia Tech. Last Year 1 kid was academic related 1 kid got two codes of conduct via VT that Marci tried to help but couldn't. 2 kids didn't want to follow the drinking policy and decided to leave on their own Only one of those kid went P5 as a walk on everyone else dropped a level which was good for them. This Year 3 are grads that VT didn't have money for. 4 are walk ons who didn't play or didn't play much (one had health issues, that was the call by the medical staff.) 1 scholarship kid who got into 2 matches Virginia Tech has not lost a full time starter to the portal. Character assassination is the norm here, people love to do it behind pseudonyms, if that's how you get your giggles, then by all means do it. Just remember that ED prescriptions are cheap and more effective. So, this appears to be comments from the coach herself or someone very close to her or someone being gas-lit by her. Let's look are your comments from last year to this year, and review. Last Year 1 kid was academic related - Correct 1 kid got two codes of conduct via VT that Marci tried to help but couldn't. - 1/2 correct. The player in question did have "partying" mis-conduct problems. Basically wrong place at wrong time for the player. Coach did nothing to aid the player. The coach is VERY hands off on this team. Particularly the players she didn't bring in. 2 kids didn't want to follow the drinking policy and decided to leave on their own - 1/2 correct. The "drinking policy" was a ridiculous set of rules that kept players from interacting with ANYONE on campus, in the Spring. And basically required them to stay at home during the spring session. Transfer players were complaining about not getting to meet people, or even the team. The coach had her little team spies scouting players to find the rule breakers, and when the couldn't find them out, they would harass other student-athletes to see if a certain player was out and about. (Note the self-described 'Master Manipulator'). One player was confronted about a situation, denied the allegation, but because her little 'spy' said 'someone' saw her out, the player was going to be suspended indefinitely. Player knew she didn't have to stand for that crap, left and is not in the Sweet 16. Only one of those kid went P5 as a walk on everyone else dropped a level which was good for them. - You are correct, but at this point, is VT REALLY a P5 team, even though they are in the conference. I'm mean their non-conference standing this year proves, they are NOT. In your stats that you lay out later, did you compare the non-conference and level. This is the weakest ACC has been in a very long time, but yet, VT sill struggled greatly. And when you talk about the levels and starters, the players that left were not considered starters, because there was never a consistency of a line-up. The coach continued to rotate players and positions. And the level of the players leaving in coming in. She allowed "2nd string" players to leave but only to bring in "2nd string" players as transfers. This Year 3 are grads that VT didn't have money for. - False. 2 got money. Including the joke of her pet/captain. 4 are walk ons who didn't play or didn't play much (one had health issues, that was the call by the medical staff.) - The "health issue" was a direct effect from the coach's mental games she plays on the players. 1 scholarship kid who got into 2 matches - This was because the player, that the coach decided to play above this player, her mother was in direct access to the coach and would bombard her constantly until she played and started her daughter. Even 'threatening' to leave and taking the other freshmens with her. So, as with anything that I see in this forum there are people on both sides of gas-lighting the goods vs the bads. I had a front-row seat to this coaches shenanigans' all season long, and she's just plays to many games with the team, she doesn't want to build up a program and she plan out does not coach. So, if you are thinking of playing for her, make sure you LOVE the school, because you WILL not love the team, while she's there.

I'm calling TTA to Purdue. and here is why.. great engineering school, close to home, she is "the one that got away" for Shondell. I have nothing to base this off of except Shondell posted something on twitter like he got some good news and I feel it could be this.

I just don't imagine Chicoine wants the libero jersey and you have Ali Hornung who could easily be in that spot. Maybe OPP, but then Shondell would have to sit Rastovski another year as well as Heaney. I just think, no matter what, you run the risk of losing quality players for another player you'll only have for a year. I'd love TTA in black and gold, but wonder what's on the other side of the coin? 🤔

Y’all are kinda nuts. If Purdue can get TTA, they will 100% offer. She’s too good of a player to turn down imo
