We dive deep into some sensitive subjects, dealing with hot topics in our world of recruiting and helping athletes and families have the experience that is best for them.

We tackle topics like athletes being unable to attend Select Camps due to club practice, overpractice, and too long a season, as well as the insane month of June for 16s.

Then we dive into our yearly topic of WHY would any club ever tell prospects that they ARE NOT ALLOWED to talk about camps they are going to or schools they are looking at ? We discuss why that benefits the athlete and the reasons why the clubs may be doing it in their best interest, not that of the athlete.

Other topics covered...." Anytime a coach or club person tells you 'you are not allowed to... ' that should probably be a RED FLAG," and why athletes should and need to speak up about their experiences MORE in HS and College.

This aligns with what we teach in our Str8 Talk Recruiting Series, which focuses on educating people on the process and asking why. This is an individual process that clubs shouldn't have blanket policies on.

We talk about the happenings of Spring around volleyball, and that definitely includes college volleyball. We bring in Anders Nelson, head coach of Vandy Volleyball, to talk about Year 1, how things are going with his new program, and everything exciting leading up to their August start date. What an exciting time in Nashville. Then we bring on C.C. McGraw of Louisville to talk about everything new and old in The 'Ville as the Cards go through Spring under Dan Meske. She talks about the program in great detail and everything that makes it one of the best.

Matt Ulmer sure has had a busy week. The former Head Coach of Oregon gave college volleyball plenty to talk about last week when he took the Head Coaching position at the University of Kansas. The last week has been slightly hectic, but the new leader of the Jayhawks is taking it all in stride and he took a few minutes to talk this morning.
He describes the process, WHY KANSAS, his immediate goals and long term plan. Plus why this seems like such a great fit. Then we talk about what all goes into taking a new job, from moving your family, to assembling a staff and then recruiting.
You will hear how busy Coach Ulmer is and why it's even more classy of him to take the time to talk with us. This seems like a Home Run in Lawrence and a move that could put #RockChalk on the verge of being the "Next Big Thing" in college volleyball.
Then we conclude filling you in on a couple of new projects coming for our fanbase on the site. Thanks for following.
