Re: 2021 Volleyball

Wow. What a complete @@s

If you have read my post I’ve only informed on how the team is doing. I’ve been encouraged by people on this board to continue it after I moved to Dallas.
But it’s not worth my time.

Tulane has something great happening within this VB program. Enjoy it.

Re: 2021 Volleyball

Wow. You are a piece of work. And uninformed. I’m pretty sure of Tulane football beat any PAC 12 team it would be a big deal. And if you are paying attention Tulane VB beat them with their starting senior setter out. All conference middle Dinkins out. And all world Libero out. And they beat them in ...

Re: 2021 Volleyball

Cal was 20-10 in 2019. The last real season. They play in the PAC 12 and have a storied program in VB.
If football or BB beat Cal it would be a national head turner.
VB is even better in the PAC 12.

Re: 2021 Volleyball

Hope everyone is doing ok back in NOLA!

Amazing 1st weekend for VB. Beating Cal is a national head turner.
This weekend they have some tough teams. VCU is really good and FSU is a perennial power. Glad they are safe and get to play!

Re: 2021 Volleyball

I was a little bummed we weren’t picked to finish even in the top 3 of the conference. Looks the the conference is top heavy with a clear line between the good teams and the below average teams. Fingers crossed we break through, but I agree it’s been a bit like Fritz tenure- now or never Pre-season...

Re: 2021 Volleyball

Just watched the scrimmage on ESPN replay. So impressed by the newcomers. Bumpers led all players in kills and looked amazing. Urquhart playa the game with such command. She is special. Harvey the setter is really aggressive and can hit as a setter. She has a bright future. And really likes the seni...

Re: 2021 Volleyball

He's going into year 6. Time to make the tournament. That’s interesting. I would argue going to the national championship of the NIT is more of an accomplishment than making the ncaa and getting knocked out in the first round. Last 3 years they’ve made the NIT postseason but have very close on the ...

I’m in Orlando coaching at the AAU volleyball championships. I watched Tulane’s 2022 recruit Nia Washington and her NOLA team win the 17’s division championship. She was the mvp. She is a special player. Not sure a Louisiana team has ever won this. I believe Wattle Daub (WD Nation) Volleyball has w...

Re: 2021 Volleyball

Just saw on ESPN + that the VB Olive and Blue scrimmage will air live. That’s got to be a first.
Lots of excitement over this team. I haven’t read much about the team but have heard the team looks great.
Love watching the scrimmage and get a chance to see all the players and newcomers.

Am I missing something. Don’t all the team sports at Tul...

Re: 2021 Volleyball

Tulane’s facilities are good for the VB program but until they get a Teraflex floor they are behind several schools in the conference as far as gym. It’s by far the best floor for VB. But the main 3 reasons these top players are now going to Tulane is because of Coach Barnes, winning, program and ac...

Re: 2021 Volleyball

From what I understand no one burned a year last year. So everyone gets 5 years who played during 2020 Covid.
So this is partly why so many are in the portal transferring as well.

Williams was a top 50 recruit out of HS. She should be a force in the AAC.

Re: 2021 Volleyball

The Rich Kern volleyball site just listed Danyelle Williams from Northwestern transferred.
I looked her up and she happens to be the daughter of Aaron Williams who played for the New Orleans Hornets NBA team.
Major athletic player coming to Tulane.

Re: 2021 Volleyball

Just saw a post about a commitment from a transfer from the Big 10.
Not sure who it is but the Big 10 is by far the best league in college volleyball. Excited to find out who. This 2021 team is going to be really loaded.

What about Skyler Bumpers? She is very highly ranked from Alabama. Bumpers signed back in November and is in this incoming 2021 class. Look further back in the thread there is info and video on her. She is a big time athlete. Potential to be the best player in the AAC. Nia is in the 2022 class. Hig...

Re: 2021 Volleyball

Well Tulane just got a great recruit and she is from New Orleans. I saw her post on Instagram. Nia Washington.
State player of the year and her mom was a former Tulane great VB player Kim Sentmore!

I heard this player was going to an SEC team but looks like Tulane grabbed her up.
Huge get!

Re: 2021 Volleyball

Just saw this on Twitter. VB will play LSU, Florida St, Texas Tech, Cal, Miss State in non conference games. LSU will be at Tulane this year because Tulane went there in 2019 and whooped them.

Re: 2021 Volleyball

They shrunk the ncaa field from 64 to 48 for spring. So not many bids to give out. If Tulane had won they would have been in.
VB will move back to Fall. This team will be really good next season.

This volleyball team almost pulled off the impossible. Playing #8 team in the country UCF who hadn’t dropped even 1 set and Tulane beat them 2 sets and was up by 9 points in another set but losses in 5! What and incredible run by this team. They were 1 kill away from winning this in 4 sets. With 3 f...
