Right. And it's not an assumption. As others have mentioned, out-of-state (and even out-of-city) taxes on pro athletes are a real thing. It’s actually on anyone who works outside of their home state; when I worked at a larger corporation we had to mark our location in the payroll system if we were not in our ‘home’ location (i.e. traveling for business). I ended up having to do 3 state taxes one year because of that, and yes, it’s annoying Why doesn't that apply to any college coach (in any state, any sport) that recruits across state lines or plays in other states? I'm not arguing it isn't true for athletes, just wondering why it doesn't apply to MORE jobs. Especially for big money coaches in NCAA football/basketball.

I think it does apply to coaches (and other support staff that travel with the teams). It's just more talked about with athletes.

Either Kelsey and Brian Cook are mistaken or LOVB has been disingenuous when asked about if LOVB youth clubs will help fund the pro league.
Around 48 minutes, Brian explicitly talks about the club teams providing a source of funding to ensure the pro league is afloat for a couple years if it isn't profitable initially.

Anyone got way-too-early rankings of the LOVB teams based on announced signed players?

Salt lake looks like an early contender for top team based on who is announced so far. Really strong duo of middles but might not have the ball control to use them enough? Poulter/Casanova Dani Drews/RJP Washington/S Gray Kojima Omaha also with a very solid cast so far: Dijekma/Drewniok Larson/Kubik Herrera/Thater JWO Houston also looking really solid but only one middle announced so far Hancock/Thompson Kingdon Rishel/Loda Folie/ Pogany

This seems like a good rank order of the teams so far. But being not familiar with the international players that didn’t play in the college game, it could go about any direction. The player distribution seems to be happening with purpose to make parity quite probable.

I think they want to have around four players per team, but there could be more or less.

It's interesting that Madison only has six players announced so far. Every other team has eight (Austin, Omaha) or nine (Salt Lake, Atlanta, Houston). I wonder if this means that there are a disproportionate number of PVF players who will be playing in Madison.
Edit: Austin and Omaha now have nine players announced, while Madison is still at six.

Around 48 minutes, Brian explicitly talks about the club teams providing a source of funding to ensure the pro league is afloat for a couple years if it isn't profitable initially. Avid 2.0 posted the LOVB Adidas sponsorship article. Sounds like dues are not the primary source of org funding, salaries. A good thing. “Founded in 2020, LOVB raised $60 million to date, including $35 million in Series B funding last year in a round led by Left Lane Capital. The round also included support from Ares Management and individuals, including Olympic skiing gold medalist Lindsey Vonn, four-time NBA All-Star Jayson Tatum, Fenway Sports Group partner Linda Henry, comedian Amy Schumer and two-time WNBA MVP Candace Parker.” redirect.viglink.com/?key=71fe2139a887ad501313cd8cce3053c5&subId=2107859&u=https%3A//www.sportico.com/leagues/other-sports/2024/adidas-league-one-volleyball-multiyear-partnership-1234784271/
