There is a big pin in the portal. if you know avid 2.0 well enough, you'll know this is a puzzle to figure out. But it's pretty simple one. You just break "big" down into: "B" = Bloomington "I" = Indiana "G" = this one is a little more tricky but if you browse through the Indiana roster, you'll find one of the player's hobbies includes " Going to the Beach" Final answer: Candela Alonso-Corcelles from Indiana transferring to Long Beach (also known as "The Beach") State! This was amazing 🤣 avid 2.0 just give us the tea!!! |

im not making anything up lol. when they offer the 3.5 the player isn't on scholarship for the first semester of their college careers - and then is put on scholarship for the remaining 3.5 it can be your opinion that im making that up, but im comfortable knowing what I heard straight out the recruits mouths lmao ok i'm just gonna say -- i also know this happens and the program(s) doing it are doing it so they can say "the athlete didn't start out on schollie but earned it later" so they have justification for yanking it later if they choose to. it's easier than telling the SA they aren't going to get any playing time and freeing up the schollie that way. i have no clue why any parent or SA would agree to this deal in 2023. If a coach isn't sold on you at a major program, go find another program. go join Houston or Western Mich and make those second round upsets happen. we don't need top recruits being told to "wait and see". Try telling a prospect and her parents that. "Well, they really want to give me a full, but they have all of the money allocated right now and just don't have it to give (or they have to get a setter/etc). They aren't like "other" programs and pull the money or try to talk their athletes into transferring". It is my dream school, and they really want me, and they see me playing right away". Although I have to say, most* every school that has offered the short money has stayed to their word. Although sometimes the playtime isn't what they expected. |

Sometimes the answer is right in front of you but you get too creative |

It's Kari Geissberger. 6'5 OH from LMU you're welcome for the first troll of the season (also i will contest that she'd be very good for a lot of P5 teams)  |
