“I have heard that Taylor can’t transfer to another school for the spring semester. She will be a fifth year in the fall and academically she cannot transfer until she receives a diploma from the University of Minnesota. So she is not eligible to transfer to another university until she graduates which she has not done and cannot graduate early due to being an art major. Sounds like Taylor will be staying in the spring…”
From the Minnesota thread, maybe this has something to do with the tweet from Punzel?

You can transfer anytime, but you needed a waiver to transfer without sitting out a year if you transfer between divisions. Your first transfer now doesn't need a waiver, so she wouldn't be transferring necessarily as a grad student. She would just be using her first waiver. I did hear that Minnesota was being difficult about processing her transcript, though.

Do we look at bringing in Kubik with the Landfair news?

Do we look at bringing in Kubik with the Landfair news? Past history says probably not. Everyone that has been brought in as a transfer has proven themselves with playing time on the court before they came to Wisconsin. I have no insider knowledge on this, however.

Do we look at bringing in Kubik with the Landfair news? Never say never but if Landfair is indeed headed to Nebraska I would think it would be more likely we look at whoever leaves in her wake. If Krause or Batenhorst decides to look for a clearer path to playing time in their final season I'd be on board. I'm also fine with moving Orzol back to the pin, but in that case it might be prudent to look for a veteran libero in case none of the freshman smalls are ready to play.

Krause sure, but why would we want Batenhorst? Her career hitting % is ...0.178, and this past season she hit .189. Orzol's worst season as an OH (not counting this past season where she played like 10 sets at OH of course), is better than Batenhorst's best season by a good margins, and Orzol is waay better as a defender, a better passer, and just as good of a blocker.

We have only three OHs (Franklin, Orzol, and Shadd-Ceres), since Wrobel intends to transfer-out. So we still need another OH, presumably the best one willing and available to us; if that’s Batenhorst, we’re still in good shape.

How about a veteran libero from a conference champ elite-eight team?

Great lesson for you youngsters out there… Don’t send that F-You social media post to your Coach & teammates until you have diploma in hand, or better yet, don’t send one at all..

Sigh. I am heading that TL has decided to join the Sith Lords. I am assuming the NIL money is too tempting, and while disappointing to me, I absolutely understand she has to make the decision she thinks is best for her. What a rollercoaster 🎢! milkmandan??? If this is true, then something must have changed pretty recently. As late as Wednesday, I was hearing Wisconsin was pretty confident she was theirs. And honestly, I thought that was the best fit for her. I don't think she makes Nebraska materially better in the ways they need to be better, and she's very much not the type of player Nebraska has tried to develop before. She (or her family) also sound like they're not great additions to a team culture. If you're Nebraska, bringing her in is a pretty big gamble on how she fits on a team that by most accounts was pretty tight with one another last year. It would also lend credence to the rumor that Batenhorst is graduating this spring and will grad transfer somewhere else. It's pretty risky for all involved.

I said it before and I’ll say it again—If TL wants to be Badger and Kelly wants her as part of the team, she would do great and Badger fans would love her.
Team chemistry is a touchy thing. I’d still love for her to be a Badger, but if she doesn’t want to be here (whether it’s culture, coach, classmates or cash) or Kelly doesn’t want her, then I wish her well wherever she ends up. . . . but I’ll still root for the Badgers to beat her and her team.

Oh well. If Landfair isn’t all-in with the Badgers, then it’s better for all involved if she doesn’t come. I hope she finds success academically and in every game where she’s not facing the Badgers.
I still hope we can bring in an OH for depth, but I’m not worried. Oz won us two Big Ten championships and a natty at the left pin. She’s a baller. Love her.

They aren’t just persnickety about it. They are very strict. Art majors often have to complete some sort of project for evaluation. It may be that other school’s art programs won’t allow her to transfer credits and just do a project out of the blue that they haven’t vetted? Or she is invested in a particular project and would have to change projects with entry to a new program? Whatever the case I wish her luck. I still have a lot of confidence in this squad, though I do worry about depth at OH.

So maybe TL must stay at Minnesota for the Spring semester, just like TTA did at Northwestern. In effect TL is a grad transfer. Doesn’t seem like a big deal.
