That stinks, but that's our place in all this. Her roots in the SEC were going to lead her back there with success. I wish her luck and thanks for the short term success.

I was told we offered to make her the highest paid volleyball coach in the league . Great run of success. She earned the promotion. We start over now.

This stinks, but if our coaches aren't wanted by the bigger programs then we shouldn't have them anyway. Time to go out and find another good one.

Good for us. Highest paid VB coach in sbc is probably lowest paid sec coach by 2x though.

She's reportedly getting $260k to start with increases up to $285k. For volleyball!

Noble was making just north of $100K a year at App. I don't know what the highest paid in the Sun Belt was, but I doubt that even sniffs $200K, and can't compete with South Carolina offering $260K a year with $15K auto raises each season.

$100k is not going far in Boone with the price of housing in the area...been going up .but since COVID.. skyrocketed like other places. In relative terms, Cola is pretty reasonable for cost of living

Any word on players or assistants following Sarah to SC? From what I was told a year ago the girls loved playing for her and loved her as a coach and role model. Big loss in my opinion. Hope we can find an up and coming young coach to fill her shoes.
