Nebraska and Wisconsin have 2024 filled, but Nebraska got top recruits again, and Wisconsin hit Poland and Canada, as well as former LBSU coach and player legend Joy's (too lazy too look up last names) daughter, for its quick verbals in that class. Probably still a lot of talent out there with the new regulations, and, yeah, transfer portal. Oh, yeah, "small" crowd of 4,000, with great tv coverage and streaming, in flipping Hawai'i! Always an option! I live in Wisconsin. Hawai'i broadcasts are the only ones I don't "mute" once I figure out who the players are, watching live, but our radio guy is great! Great crew, all around. Sorry for Kanoa for his loss! He is very much living up to a huge legacy with his work! Charlie Fuerbringer is Joy's daughter.

Wondering when we will be hearing about any more 2024 commitments. Robyn still has 3 or 4 available scholarships to give out for 2024. Don't we have 2 middles spoken for already? Or is the 3-4 in addition to that?

Figuring Robyn will have, in 2024, 3 Middles (Bamis, Sylvester, and Way), 2 Setters (Lang and Matias), and only 4 Outside/Opposite Hitters. Robyn will still need to bring in 2 or 3 Outside/Opposite Hitters, 1 Setter (Redshirt), and quite possibly 1 Middle. The Setter should be willing to redshirt the 1st year to learn the system and players., since Robyn will still have Lang and Matias, in 2024. The Outside/Opposite Hitter positions will be thin with only Alexander, Hakas, Adeyemi, and De Goede.

For some reason I am thinking Robyn may just hold on to the last 2023 scholarship, so that she can use it in 2024. Not unless a quality Outside/Opposite Hitter enters the Transfer Portal during the 2nd Opening.

Got so quiet in here?! It’s like when I eat too much Zippy’s Chili.. nobody stay!! Here’s a Topic... seeing how I definitely know how many of you are much more knowledgeable on logistics than I...where do you think the NCAA/RPI have us next Year? And what’s your personal expectations on our potential? Top 25? Hosting a couple rounds? Depends on what the schedule for next season looks like

I think this will be a top 25 team for sure. They need to start out strong though. This is the year where they know who they are. There shouldn't be a lot of early season juggling or trying to find out who the lineup is. They need to gel in practice and come out winning. And I think this is the case even if they don't pick up a right side this spring.

With the experience coming back and only needing to fill one pin hitter role along with ADDING depth to the middle and Libero spots, I like our chances of breaking into the Top 25, especially if the schedule is challenging again. I think the only added question mark for me is if Matias can push Lang enough to see her really step her game up

If they get a Jolie type pin and another middle steps it up then I think they’re Top 10. 2023 will be a good year regardless

Go all the way and be #1 with an NCAA title. Think big.

Photos from spring practice http://instagram.com/p/ConYoH8ylbs I think we won’t see Riley or Chandler for the matches against Minny since I don’t think they are doing spring training with the indoor team?
