Neither Spears nor Mullen are at Dream Team. When will 🌽 nation acknowledge the obvious? Man, I hope Nebraska recruiting will be okay. If they lose Spears and Mullen (to the other recruiting powerhouses, Texas and Stanford) it's an obvious sign their recruiting is falling apart! (side note, it's not a sign their recruiting is falling apart. They're still the premier recruiting program in the country, with Stanford and Texas not far behind). I'd rank them as follows, but I'm not going to argue strongly for my position: 1. Texas 2. Neb 3. Stanford

It just depends on how each recruit weighs their priorities when choosing a school and program.

If she gets an offer, she'll commit pretty quickly. Will she get one if the Huskers are waiting on Mullen? Definitely if they like her measurables, performance at camp, and whether she has good chemistry with the other Husker players and committed recruits. In person evaluations are always the best barometer.

Who are the big names left? And especially middles. There is quite a bit of talk about pin hitters, not as much middles and others.

Who are the big names left? There are about a dozen big names that get mentioned a lot: Mullen Spears Hunter OH Kaci Demaria - Surfside S Logan Parks - KC Power OH Suli Davis - Drive Nation OH Bailey Warren - Houston Skyline MB Jordan Taylor - Houston Juniors MB Willow Watson - Vegas Aces OH Megan Fitch - Alamo OH Devyn Wiest - AZ Storm And probably at least 2 or 3 dozen more that haven't been mentioned (or not much).

In person evaluations are always the best barometer. Will be interesting given she is scheduled to be in another major school's elite camp after Dream Team Camp this week.

Minnesota making their move this weekend! Ski U Mah! Makes sense. At this point the Stanford/Texas/Nebraska offers are out…the players that didn’t get them are now on to the next tier. Minnesota definitely is in that category. You are never going to let up on Keegan Cook leaving Udub for Minny are you?

Name the school please. I'm hoping it will be poor old, second-tier Wisconsin. They only have 4 awesome 2025 recruits to this point.
Thank you.

I'd rank them as follows, but I'm not going to argue strongly for my position: 1. Texas 2. Neb 3. Stanford I think most fans would agree these are top schools. In the last 30 years they have recruited well, run good programs, performed well and won lots of national championships. I think it's fair to say many young high school players may have slightly or significantly different views. Some may prefer the fun of quieter schools with a little less pressure. Many young players,, I think, would view Wisconsin, Kentucky, Minnesota, Louisville, Pitt, Ohio State, Penn State, or others as equally good choices as my top three, Spears and Mullen, IMO probably have the potential to go to any one of 30 schools and be named an All American.

Probably one of the biggest talks from nationals out of the middles is Victoria Gray from MiElite 16 Mizuno... Looks from UNC, Duke, Notre Dame and San Diego. Potentially more to come with more exposure. Spent first half of the season playing up part time with 18s because she was committed to basketball, now she's all volleyball. Somebody may get real lucky if she's committed before next spring.

The talk of tier one vs tier two schools for recruiting makes me chuckle… what makes NCAA volleyball so much fun to follow lately is top talent spreading out to other schools. There are a lot of great programs out there with great coaches and the potential to win it all and every recruit just wants what feels like the best school for them.
Personally, I’m hoping the rest of the top names go to “second tier” or even -gasp- “third tier” schools… Spears to LSU sounds like a great choice to me
