new thread up for Tuesday.
16. not sure what the ‘formality’ of an announcement closed means. there is paperwork to be approved and signed off on. the school year is 8 days old.
but probably this week. not sure why you say ‘typical UH’ Not like there was a huge rush on the hire other than to give Hall an assistant while he also wears the beach hat.
the hire was not done before the hiring window. As mentioned previously, they had about 20 applicants, and several other inquiries. The job doesn’t pay all that much. I think part of the reason Berg didn’t stay. Her businesses in L.A. gave her a much larger income.

17. thanks.forgot that was at the end of the May 31 announcement.

10. ” The Big West also announced Tuesday(5-31-16) that its 2018 conference schedule will be a double round-robin format comprised of 10 matches. All six teams will qualify for the Big West Tournament at the end of the regular season with that event’s champion receiving the conference’s automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament.
That regular season format will give Big West teams an opportunity to schedule 18 non-conference matches each season — a 12 non-conference match increase compared to last year’s MPSF schedule.”

The formality of a UH announcement closed a while back, but still nothing heard from them. The hire was probably done before the announcement closed. Waiting for signatures from the uppers for Baxter, I guess. Typical UH.

I wonder why the womens teams don’t do the same to save money, especially basketball.

warriorfan – #10 – UH doesn’t have home and away games against BWC opponents in baseball, so I’m guessing that’ll be the case with MVB.

I love the thought of MVB not having to go to Provo every other year. 👿

they are taking 14. Fey could play libero, and of course Worsley.
9. pretty easy to go check LBS page and see there are no links for coverage, including game tracker That might be updated after the holiday but not yet

10. haven’t see anything on the schedule. money wise, makes more sense to keep what the MPSF has done with 2 home and 2 away alternating.

I wonder if next season mens volleyball will do a home and away with the big west teams, so UH plays every team once at home.

8. I’m glad that article got the previous UH coaches to notice Brian, sounds like maybe they wouldn’t have recruited him without that article.

Does anyone know if Long Beach will have a livestream of the match Wednesday?
Hope in the future the Big west gets mens volleyball matches on tv ( like womens volleyball) so we can see this matcup on the primeticket channel next season.
