Your point still stands. Not sure how they divide the scholarships, whether any of the 16 are walk-ons or some other type aid. But as you say, because of volleyball demographics, there are probably those that could go to ND without the scholarship.

I think the toughest breakthrough is to convince recruits that ND as a program was a serious contender. Hard to crack into that 20 or so top teams that have been top teams what seems like forever. I think hiring McLaughlin was a great move - a shame he wasn't able to continue - we will see whether Johnson can take us to the next level. A good core and some good recruits.
