If you're raiding a beach player (whose not Glagau if she's even available), Alana Embry is the one you want. I know she was the starting setter at NMSU but she can clearly pass and hit and is a phenomenal athlete.

I'm surprised we haven't seen more crossover since Ah Mow technically oversees the Beach team too (is the correct)? Given Hawaii's lack of depth, you would think the Beach team would have at least a few smalls or bigs open to playing for the indoor team. Go figure.

Since Angie left, Robyn had no say with anything beach related. Angie was the indoor AHC and beach HC at that time so the ties to the beach team was thru Angie. That's not to say Robyn and Evan are not on friendly terms but Evan needs to look out for his best interest first and foremost and does have a day in whether players can cross over. I get the sense there will not be many or any cross overs now with Wagoner gone.

I get the sense there will not be many or any cross overs now with Wagoner gone. Imagine Robyn, Evan, and a beach player in a room. Evan tells beach player and Robyn to pack sand, he won't allow one of his players to pick up a full indoor scholarship and play both indoor and beach. Just can't happen, can't be done. Despite the fact that some of the best Hawai'i beach players have been dual-sport crossovers. Is Evan that guy? Is the AD that guy, that he'd back Evan? Is the Hawai'i volleyball fanbase such beach purists, they'd rush to back Evan? He'll never want an indoor player to dual-sport crossover to beach, never ever again? Hmmm. Evan looking out for Evan, might think a little longer and harder before a flat out no, never, ever, can't happen flippant response. That would be my guess, but I could be wrong.

From what I remember/heard, the beach roster was already so big--early on a bunch of indoor players were also training with the beach team and the players on the beach roster were complaining that they weren't getting enough reps. So I think the general rule is that indoor players can only cross over to beach if they have a legitimate chance of cracking the starting lineup right then. (Plus Robyn does want them working on indoor)
I don't think there's any rules against beach players crossing over to indoor, except for the reason that many beach players already chose beach over indoor for a reason. (I hear we did go after Scoles but she did not want to risk another concussion)

Shoot, sorry for some reason I thought Beach was under Ah Mow's oversight.

I don't know why but the print on that uniform is giving me Haili's Golden Masters in the worst way.

I think it’s ok, if I could see an inverse in black with green instead of the red, I could fw it 🤔🤔🤔

I much prefer the previous years' designs that use the distinctive UH branding. This is okay as a one-off but I hope it's not going to be the primary uniform. It looks like what Adidas cooked up for the University of Miami last year.
