Did Wrobel ever play left side at UW? Or was her playing time entirely as an opposite? I don't recall her ever playing on the left. I never recall her playing on the right. I believe that Coach Schrödinger could use someone like that.

Shouldn’t the Landfair announcement be out by now? My guess is she is thinking long and hard about the reality of only being a 3ro OH at Wisc. It was very clear she seemed adamant on being a 6ro at Minn. The last thing Wisconsin needs is a liability in the back row next year.

It was very clear she seemed adamant on being a 6ro at Minn. The last thing Wisconsin needs is a liability in the back row next year. If it's indeed between Bucky and Huskers, she's gonna be 3ro either place without improvement, so perhaps if she wants to be 6ro she's decided to look somewhere else besides the 2 Punzel mentioned schools, and will need more visits before decision. If she's thinking she'll start 3ro and wants to become 6ro, seems to me she has a better shot at doing that at Nebraska. However, going to Nebraska gives even less chance of being in the lineup as 3ro. Perhaps these are things she's wrestling with.

I guess that would be my point exactly. If both are 3ro, could be NIL related. E.g.; Wants to go to Wisconsin, but Nebraska pays more. Or maybe she just wants to enjoy Christmas, and decide afterwards.

Not to get all sappy but this year this program gave us a NPOY, a Final Four appearance, 30 wins, and more incredible plays than I want to count. What lucky fans we are.
(Oh and 4 All Americans and a new all time leader in Aces and Wins. I’m sure more stuff too.)

The NIL $ Neb is offering is /significant/ so I imagine she's got a lot of things to think about.

If a player goes to another university because they can make more money, good riddance. I stopped watching college football and basketball because it was too much about money. I've always loved watching volleyball and fell in love with Badger volleyball when I attended a game in 2017; the season after bought season tickets. And I thought it had more immunity to the money trap. It's the last college sport I watch religiously. If money turns into the recruitment tool for volleyball it appears it's becoming, I'll walk away from it too. Yah, I know, it's probably too late. Which makes me sick. We're already to the point where a college volleyball player won't sign a player card for a 10 year old girl because it's not the company the player has a deal with, so I shouldn't be shocked.

The last thing Wisconsin needs is a liability in the back row next year. The NIL $ Neb is offering is /significant/ so I imagine she's got a lot of things to think about. From ESPN +
Nebraska coach Matt Rhule talks about the average cost of a good quarterback in the transfer portal and discusses how the Cornhuskers will approach things
Matt Rhule: "A good QB in the portal costs $1 million to $2 million" He went on to say that "We [meaning NCAA D1 Football] have $6-7,000,000 players out there". He said he prefers "the old way" but "it's not that we won't look at players in the portal" if they can be "an impact player for a single season or develop in our program over multiple years".
I'm sure that kind of money isn't available to any volleyball player, but I'll bet that any money offered by Nebraska VB is significant indeed.
It seems inevitable that the gap between the haves and the have-nots will widen considerably given the growth in VB popularity.So many questions come to mind, the first being "If your team has the money, do you want them to buy a Championship"?

You’ve mentioned the 10 year old girl and the autograph twice in the last few days. In the least snarky way possible, can you tell us who you are referring to? NIL as it is currently constructed can effect any sport where a well funded donor, or group of donors, wants to spend money. In VB I think the list of girls making big money is pretty small. I’d think Texas and Nebraska lead the way with Wisconsin and a handful of others quite a bit behind. That’s just my perception tho.

Funny he doesn’t talk about how much coaches make. Head coaching salary has gone crazy. Now you have a not insignificant amount of assistant coaches also making over a million a year. But there no money to give the players. Also note that within 2 weeks of saying this he flipped the number 1 QB recruit in the country from Ohio State, where he had a SIGNIFICANT NIL DEAL, to Nebraska. I'm thinking now he wasn’t so much as complaining about it as getting word out to his donors on what it was going to take to get it done.

My brother married into a wealthy southern family and is tight with big money boosters from a southern school that has won big the last 15 years in football. The things he’s heard are insane. Especially before NIL.
