    Gopher volleyball 2024

    I see she didn't play much at all last season. Does anybody know why? Injury or low on GA Tech's depth chart of MB's?

    Gopher volleyball 2024

    I remember how much of a surprise Miyabe was when she transferred here. As stated somewhere, this coaching staff could certainly look at the Junior Colleges and see if any MB and/or DS/L want to transfer to Div 1 and would be capable of playing at that level. Now that Pedro is on board KK...

    Pedro Mendes Returns as an Assistant

    Sorry I don't believe what I have read necessarily was meant for a Former Defensive Gopher player but one who has held such a position throughout the NCAA....just clarifying. One thing for sure it would be wonderful to see someone here with the talent of Paula Gentil.

    Pedro Mendes Returns as an Assistant

    True..However, they are a package deal and I believe KCook can see that now with the rehiring of Pedro. I am reading (of course it could be all smoke) that he is looking at a former defensive player for the other Assistant Coaching position.....I say bring back Gentil.

    Pedro Mendes Returns as an Assistant

    I totally agree and IMO there wasn't any real individual player development this past season for this program to "hang their hat on". I am questioning their hire in the first place seeing as they only stayed 1 year. I really have no idea how often this happens throughout the NCAA., but I found...

    Gopher volleyball 2024

    Right now KCook needs a back court that can pass. I can see where you might be thinking how we could be going back to the Mike Hebert days, when it comes to recruiting. However, I would love to have two of his DS/L's on this team right now...Gentil, Peniata, Tan, and Granquist. I will take MB...

    Changes coming to Gophers volleyball coaching staff?

    We really need the two Assistant Coaching positions that are open to be filled and announced. This would be a great step forward in trying to stabilize this Gopher Volleyball Program ASAP.

    Changes coming to Gophers volleyball coaching staff?

    I made a similar comment one time and got a negative reaction. Someone responded that coaches are not over one specific area of the sport. However, I felt that Pedro being an outstanding National MB Player himself, was over our middle game and I too felt he had a lot to do with the progress...

    Taylor Landfair has entered the transfer portal.

    I will admit I am quite surprised she ended up in Nebraska. But like some of the talk on another forum JCook recruited her so nobody else could in the BIG, which I believe there is truth to that. I really felt she would end up in Wisconsin and IMO it was a better "fit" for her. But as we all...

    Gopher volleyball 2024

    Well the dust is trying to settle, but with no added players to this roster besides Olivia and Stella it isn't making me feel any more positive that more will be added for this upcoming semester and Spring roster. My understanding is that as of today Mendelson is still visiting colleges. What...

    Taylor Landfair has entered the transfer portal.

    Just remember reading something about her having a clothing line. I have absolutely no idea where she is at with it and if it continues to exist or not....The Sunny Crew.

    Taylor Landfair has entered the transfer portal.

    IMO this is A typical of JCook. He always talks out of "both sides of his mouth". He has had some of the highest ranked recruiting classes in Division1 year after year after year. It is not a concern for him. He is going to put out there the best players he can to run his system. These...

    Gopher volleyball 2024

    Right now I am hoping the Minnesota administration can provide us with an updated Volleyball Roster by the beginning of the next Semester starting in January 2024. At least we will know who will be enrolled practicing with the volleyball team and available for matches during are 2024 Spring...

    Gopher volleyball 2024

    Wanted to wake up this morning to some definite news. I sure woke up to news but absolutely not what I was expecting. TayLa will be here at Minnesota for the 2024 Spring Season and Mendelson supposedly now visiting Kentucky. This program just keeps struggling, when trying to move on. TayLa's...

    Gopher volleyball 2024

    I have only read that Morris is possibly going to Oregon and Foster has committed to SMU. Also, because Nebraska's Caroline Jurevicius has transferred to Penn State, Mendelson could be following her there. Mendelson is the two sport athlete out of Utah that had narrowed her college preferences...

    Gopher Volleyball 2023 Season

    This is an example of how tough it is to keep up with Texas and Nebraska in the recruiting process. It has been going on for years and will continue. I know the following very interesting link is not Gopher news but I also have no idea where Wenaas will fit into this picture next season at...

    Gopher Volleyball 2023 Season

    More than likely many Christmas wish lists are in the past and New Year wish lists are now in effect. IDK Gopher fans this is worrisome, at least to me, that there hasn't been any word to fill needed positions on this roster for the 2024 season. Also, when players visit and then decide to...

    Gopher Volleyball 2023 Season

    Davis is in the portal too. She transferred in from Ohio State and was their starter. I have no idea why she left there but I never felt she improved to where she was effective for us at the net in the two seasons she was a Gopher. IMO she always seemed to play with nervous energy and...
