I have no inside info other than following the team and attending some games on football weekends. I knew one graduating player who didn’t play much (she had played at same HS with a niece).

All this caught me completely by surprise other than something didn’t seem right with the underperformance of a team with high expectations.

My worry with the coach firing and mass exodus, that something more damaging would come out, especially in this day and age when there is a new abuse story seemingly every day. So while not happy with what has happened with the program at least no indictments like that have arisen.

So, still not sure what happened, I thought Johnson was doing a good job coaching/ recruiting and this last season was just a hiccup - but obviously there were more issues.
Moving forward I guess

Thanks To All For Feedback....

I was aware that the team got off to a very sluggish start (with the mid-major losses MPG described), but they seemed to be coming back. Wasn't aware that players were hitting the portal prior to Coach J's non-contract renewal. Obviously, players were aware the program was wafting, as well, which was a shame because there was some talent there.

Let's hope Coach Rockwell and her staff can get the current players to play well and get the team pointed in the right direction, then use her contacts from throughout the volleyball world to recruit at the level necessary.
