Not to be a greedy freako, but we know Sheff expressed the potential for 2 OHs, 2 MBs, and a RS. Do we think Hickman or Watson (as a RS) are still on the board? I feel like the rest of the top 26ers might be taking their time.
I'm assuming Nebraska would be interested in Watson unless the rumors about JJ Robinson are true.
If Watson that won't be until after Aug 1. According to somebody on the commits board anyway. They said she wanted visits before deciding.

Those extra built-in increases are not pocket change either. I though Pete Waite led UW to the first title match??? True.

POINT, WISCONSIN‼️ Kelly Sheffield is here to stay — officially inking a new deal to serve as head volleyball coach through 2028 👑 🏐 The new contract raises Sheffield’s base salary to $575,000 (from $475K) and includes a $25,000 increase every year. And Coach S is WORTH IT ⬇️ 🏐 In his first season (2013), Sheffield took the Badgers to their FIRST NCAA championship. 🏐 Eight years later (2021), he led them back AND WON — the program's FIRST national title 🏆 Other accomplishments include ⬇️ ✅ 294–61 (.828) all-time record ✅ 3x Big Ten Coach of the Year (2014, 2019, 2022) ✅ Volleyball Magazine Coach of the Year (2013) CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHAT’S NEXT🤞🏽 www.jsonline.com/story/sports/college/uw/2024/06/20/wisconsin-rewards-volleyball-coach-kelly-sheffield-with-raise/74157230007/Minor quibbles, but Sheff led us to our second championship match, and SIX years later led us back again (Stanford loss) before bringing us back to ultimately win the title in 2021. It definitely should be noted that he's brought us to 5 Final Fours in that time.

How many roster spots does Chef actually have? Based on the roster, we anticipated being able to offer scholarships to 2 OHs, 2 MBs and 1 RS in this class, given a limit of 12 schollies. That's presuming he wants to run a 5-1. He's gotten 2OH, 2 MB (one might project to the RS). He's also got Vajagic as a 2024 to take Wrobel's old scholarship, we presume, but she's recovering from an ACL and won't play this year, so we'll see how that pans out. He apparently put out 8 offers. We don't know how many committed elsewhere already, and how many haven't committed yet, but many presume Ostavar was one of them.

I'm sure McIntosh and athletic donors are watching the last 6 days of recruiting and probably think they got their money's worth with the raise in salary.

I don't know whose writing these press releases - but they are probably young. EDIT: It's not in the press releases. That's just mad1 who can be exuberant.

Ostavar did decline Sheff’s offer from what I heard. Reason being, she has sisters playing in the Big West and wanted to be close to home.

It was in one of the articles today or yesterday. I can't remember which. I'll go try to find it.

Interesting that Sheff negotiated performance based salary increases rather than bonuses. Does offer better opportunity for higher salary down the road.

Probably really unlikely given that Charlie will be setting, but there may be enough pin talent to run a 6-2 in 2026 and 2027.

It's great that we're getting such nice coverage from Punzel and Stewart and all these other sources nowadays.
