That's what I don't understand. Where is the money coming from? Wisconsin fans are claiming poverty in the major sports but they have all this money squirreled away for volleyball?
And just like that, 5 Badgers in the portal.
Seems to be known in Madison that if you're not all-conference as a freshman, you should start looking around because you're going to get replaced by a transfer.
I think Sheffield has too many recruits coming in to go too crazy in the portal, unless he drives out a number of people (which I really wouldn't put past him). We'll start seeing today I guess.
Get rid of streaming services. It kills the legacy advertising model and forces advertisers to coalesce around sports which have active "live" viewers. Mo' money, mo' problems.
The fans aren't benefiting from this AT ALL, even if the money looks big, it's going to a tiny group of insiders.
