I get the nostalgia for the glory days of the past, but the truth is that it’s hard for any mid-major to out-spend or out-recruit the big money schools—but it’s still possible to out-coach them. And regardless of whether fans like or appreciate Robyn, she has consistently out-coached every other Big West coach (and will probably continue to do so), and a lot of other coaches along the way, even the splashy hires (I’m lookin’ at you, Tyler). As long as she continues to make the NCAA tournament, there’s still hope and potential for the Wahine program. Agreed. Aunty can be stubborn at times, but her knack for understanding the game, and what needs to be done is second to none The wahine have had been down with her talent wise (minus 2019) and that’s not her fault but they still fought. They have rarely ever been dismantled. Sometimes yes but for the most part, they have always fought. When she had her best team, she guided them to a regional semi and would have made it father of Jolie was never injured. Robyn would land ALOT of power four jobs if she wanted too She’s also hilarious Robyn doesn’t like to play the public relations game, and that is, and will be, the biggest drawback for her, whether it’s at Hawai’i or if she went somewhere else. But the fact that she barely plays it at all, and still manages to win is a testament to her actual coaching ability.

It’s ok to be critical at times about the team. It’s ok to analyze and say ok their block needs work
Tali need to jump a little better etc
Totally understand that.
it’s not ok to disparage or talk %*$# about the team

Ya’ll must still be living in the past. I love this young Wahine team. They find ways to win. I get the nostalgia for the glory days of the past, but the truth is that it’s hard for any mid-major to out-spend or out-recruit the big money schools—but it’s still possible to out-coach them.

As long as she continues to make the NCAA tournament, there’s still hope and potential for the Wahine program. I still get chicken skin sometimes watching Na Wahine. My 1st match I saw at Klumidia Gym was against UH Hilo in the 70's when I was a junior in high school. Off and on, I was blessed to see thousands of matches being televised and the addition of Volleytalk added an exceptional opportunity the experience Na Wahine volleyball with other faithful fans. Keep on Keeping on!

She’s not going to be like dan Fischer, or Elliot. The staff themselves are very to themselves ok the club scene too. They aren’t rude, just not super interactive like others are . The one thing I want, is robin ti go back to California I believe our two 2026 are CA kids (one from sunshine and the other from wave?) So that’s good. CA is still good and we can lose that pipeline (Sorry purcer is from Vegas)

Well, there’s only one member with the moniker of “wahinefan”. He could be next in line. 😀 You would give my inheritance to PHOEBE? I get to choose my beneficiary.

I took a team there to scrimmage her Vegas Aces squad early in the 2017 club season. It was there that I found out that she was taking the Wahine job. I'm not sure if I'm recalling this correctly, but either she and her then husband were in the midst of purchasing or building a home there in Vegas. I always thought she gave up a lot to come home and coach this team.

Speaking of Purser, there was a picture of her standing next to Ayanna Watson and Watson is 6'3 but Purser looked taller than Watson. expecting Purser to be 6'4 or 6'5 by the time she graduates

Robyn doing a public radio show, I think it's a start to doing the PR game.

Oregon State is not very good and hasn't been good for a while now so not sure what that says about our team that we struggled and had to reverse sweep them at home no less. The funny thing is my daughter and I were talking with some of the other boosters last night and one of them was mentioning that the talent level of this team is down compared to years past and one of them joked that with the talent level we have on this team he would kill for a player like Tai Manu Olevao...and we all laughed. Ya’ll must still be living in the past. I love this young Wahine team. They find ways to win. Agreed. How gross to be talking about our Wahine Team like that? And you call yourselves boosters? Yikes!
