The name of the tournament is actually "Division I NCAA Women's Volleyball Championship". I know. How many other programs use that phrasing to refer to tournament appearances? Does it matter? The name is the name. |

It matters for clarity, but a close review of the press release is probably the least of their problems. I'm sure WSU realizes they're already screwed with her departure, among all their other problems. |

“The athletic director, Wren Baker, just wouldn’t take no for an answer,” Greeny said. “I think that shows their commitment to building a quality program and competing in the Big 12 Conference.” That sounds to me like they threw a lot of money at all that she couldn't say No  Good for her. |

How tragic to have to leave your alma mater like that in order to remain competitive on the national scene. Really a shame. Best of luck to her though.

Savvy self-preservation. That's how bad the Northwestern job is: people like her would rather go to West Virginia. or its somewhere easier to bring in intl students and to collect a nice check before an SEC gig opens up lol Yeah, I think that's what this is about. She maintains a P4 position until something better comes along. Or maybe she really decides that she wants to be in West Virginia (unlikely but who knows). Her recruiting style (read: heavy on international players) is exactly the kind of thing that program needs. |

wonder if Ung and Ryan follow her. 2,400 mile drive by car, Pullman to Morgantown. About 4 days if you don't want to stress yourself. |

And I was done until you opened your big fat mouth. |

Coug fans are UPSET in the comments (I don’t blame them) I get it, but both this and Jonathan Smith leaving his alma mater Oregon State for Michigan State are due to the Pac-2 getting relegated. Instead of being upset at the coaches, they should be upset at the poor leadership of the Pac-12 (including their own presidents) that caused this. |

Yes, but to do it so last minute with no 2024 recruits and just 4 players left on the roster! Brutal. |

I’ve been to Morgantown. It’s really pretty, and it’s not actually that bad of a travel destination - it’s what, a 45-min drive from the Pittsburg airport?
Good on Greeney. The WSU program is on fire. Can’t fault a lady for getting out before it burns down around her.

Hmm. Now I'm wondering if I'd choose Lubbock or Morgantown if I had the choice. Tough call. Lubbock is a MUCH bigger town, like 10x bigger, but Morgantown and environs are MUCH more scenic. |

It's referring to "guiding Cougar Volleyball to 8-straight NCAA Championships." ok, thought I was blind….who interprets guiding to winning? The terminology is correct on both accounts, but it can easily be misunderstood. |

Good for her.
