Re: VB HC Matt Ulmer leaving for Kansas
Unfortunately they are located mostly on pay sites, so no! There was definitely a downtrend when Robert Johnson was let go and coach Shumacher took quite awhile to get it going. The women on the other hand hardly missed a beat and when Shalane came on board ... boom! The track ducks board is great for recruiting. We picked up a 1:42 half miller Kenyan olympian recently and a Nigerian 9.93 sprinter and a 244 foot Romainian named Vlad (the impaler).

The internationalization of track and field (and collegiate sports not named football) has been fairly astounding to see.

Re: VB HC Matt Ulmer leaving for Kansas
We'll see how good this hire will be since Ulmer set a pretty high standard and the roster is pretty barren (seen that they may pull players over from the beach volleyball team in case they can't get enough players through the portal.) Next few seasons might be really rough with how good VB is in the Big Ten.
