Curious why sign her if she has an ACL injury & can’t play this season anyways. Redshirt this year & play other years It makes sense because we graduate Frank and Orzol after this year so we will have 3 OH next season. Her, Quest and TSC If you have a name for "she", why not share it?

Her, Quest and TSC Would you think this hurts our chances at landing 2 elite OH for the 26 class?

We have the scholarship so we should snap her up now. Work on her rehab here, with our medical and training staff and strength coaches. Let her get acclimated to the US and get a solid academic foundation under her before she gets to where she’s competing for playing time.

VB adrenaline “teased” late last night about the “steal” of the class announcing soon. Could be who WI got. No clue who it is though. I think it’s gonna be Taylor Stanley to Kansas. Dude has been silent about Kymora. They were already announced before he tweeted it. Maybe it’s about the new PSU commit. But now knowing who the bingo was referring to, I doubt it was about the ‘24 badger commit.

Curious why sign her if she has an ACL injury & can’t play this season anyways. Redshirt this year & play other years (Keeping in mind that a "redshirt year" and a "medical hardship year" are different things...) That's a situation I don't know the rules for. Can a SA get a "medical hardship year" for an injury suffered prior to enrollment? Or would she have to take a redshirt year. Yes, until you get into a Kayla Caffey kind of career path, it doesn't make much difference. But a question I don't know the answer to.

It's not common for the Serbians.

Do we know when she came down with the ACL?
EDIT: Never mind, I asked that question before the Punzel article got linked above.
It was late February. Sounds like the injury actually helped her decide to come to the USA for a college education.

Do we know when she came down with the ACL? ”But she will spend her first season at Wisconsin recovering from a torn ACL, an injury she suffered in February while playing in the Serbian Cup Final, a match in which she was the top scorer with 24 points and was named the MVP.”

I always enjoy hearing the schools considered by recruits. Wisconsin beat out Pitt & Georgia Tech for Vajagic

Maybe Madden will rejoin VT and give us a bunch more info on Vajagic.

Based on the tape I've seen of her over recent weeks, Vajagic is a really solid 6 rotation outside.
I hope she recovers well. We've had ACLs slow a number of players down over the years. Gregorski, Whalen, Dodge, Juley.. I'd probably include Kriskova in that list. But Duello came back well eventually. Una's recovery sounds like it's ahead of schedule. Fingers crossed.

Hopefully some of the 25’ recruits can enroll early to start getting experience as well.
