Cindy – it’s in the NCAA manual. 🙂 http://www.ncaapublications.com/productdownloads/D111.pdf

the conference tournaments are excluded from the 28 competition dates limit for volleyball.

In reply to Cubicle1126. Don't believe conference tourney dates are exempt. But I could be wrong. There used to be an exemption for the NACWA.

as i understood it, for volleyball, conference tournament matches are exempt from the 28 play dates limit. but i could be wrong. someone correct me if i’m wrong.

there is a Fox tv deal for the Big West basketball tournament, albeit it may just be a regional deal.

In reply to Cubicle1126.

Don’t think it has anything to do with TV. it has to do with the number of playing dates.
besides, the Big West has never had a volleyball tournament.
but things change.
The WAC had a tournament, went away from it while the conference was in flux, went back to the tournament.

the other reason there’s a bball tourney is money. Fox is willing to pay to televise the basketball games. not so much for volleyball. sadly.

In reply to Alohilani. The Big West didn't have one for volleyball. I'm not sure why other than Hawaii's late addition to the conference created a situation where you would have had too many playing dates with a tournament. The WAC went without a tournament for a couple of years.

Just curious – why is there a tournament for the women’s and mens basketball but the volleyball didn’t have one. Not that I want the volleyball to have one but just curious.

In reply to warriorfan.

Regular signing period for this fall starts April 17.

Hawaii signed Higgins and Taylor during early NLI in Nov. Also added Kyra Goodman and Keani Passi

The 2014 class not allowed to sign until Nov. 13

Were you expecting more signees for 2013? Don’t believe there will be. But you never know if there were be a transfer or two before fall. Not to start a rumor. Just saying that you never know.
