UW Big Al

@ctrlcock @DennisPunzel Actually I think the early losses are what hurt our seeding. It was separator with us from other top seeds

@UWBigAl @DennisPunzel last year we played like nobody and that hurt seeding too 🤷‍♀️ losing to pitt, kentucky, and/or texas wouldn’t be too bad. plus if charlie stays healthy i only see them losing to nebraska in b1g play

Toughest non-conference schedule I can remember. Plus Nebraska on the road. A challenging road ahead.

@ctrlcock @ToddMilewski Would be culture killer

@ToddMilewski i wonder if a move to the kohl center is in the future

Demand for Badgers volleyball season tickets is exceeding supply. The economics on pricing seems simple from there, especially in the bigger picture of the need for revenue generation at Wisconsin. badgerextra.com/sports/volleyb…

@abeyerl06 @DennisPunzel @BadgerVB Agree, 100%. Was just concerned about a setback

@DennisPunzel @UWBigAl @BadgerVB Better safe than sorry on a 2nd ACL tear! I'm guessing she's also rehabbing with longevity in mind (for a pro career)

Some @BadgerVB stats from 3 spring matches: Badgers hit .392 as a team, vs. .092 for opponents. Among MBs, Tarnow hit .531, Auguste .510, Wardlow .400, Scott .263. Wardlow led in aces with 6 to go with 9 errors. Teams passed 1.37 on her serves and UW scored on 66%.

@Brian_Butch32 True Badger legend

Nolan Winter says the returning group played a role in him coming back 👀🔥 A really good sign for Badger fans. #BadgerBasketball #WisconsinBadgers

@DennisPunzel @BadgerVB Thanks. Sure has been.

@UWBigAl @BadgerVB Only time will tell. Expectation is that she should be ready but it’s been a slow process.

@JSteppe1 Worry a bit about impact on seeding for ncaa tourney but I suppose it cuts both ways. A lot for a young team

#Badgers volleyball adds another SEC foe to the 2026 schedule

@jessetemple @Genetics56 Is Hopkins a better pure passer? Seems like it may be the case

@Genetics56 Not as long as Joseph is healthy. Joseph has been steady this spring. I think Hopkins has opened a lot of eyes, in part, because you don't see a freshman this advanced.

Do you think Hopkins could start as a true freshman?

@ErikLambert1 Reiger! But the Pack will probably take him first

I know the risk I'm taking by doing this again, but there are STILL some interesting DL options for the #Bears today. Gracen Halton Kaleb Proctor Zane Durant Zxavian Harris Darrell Jackson Landon Robinson Joshua Josephs Dani Dennis-Sutton Nadame Tucker Mason Reiger

@ggabefootball Take Mason Reiger. Next stud Badger edge following JJ, TJ, Herbig, etc… will be a sack monster.

Graven Halton is not an ideal fit because of his short arms but at this point of the draft, will Bears throw that out

@braddavi34 @tbuss3 Had the pleasure of meeting the D’s on the field at the Camp last year. Great people, adorable daughter. Happy birthday from Badger Nation!

@BadgerExtra DP, will Grace Lopez ever suit up and play for UW? Was she at the match? Thought I saw Egan on tv.

The Badgers got contributions throughout the lineup in their sweep of Northern Illinois in their final spring tuneup. badgerextra.com/sports/volleyb…

@JakeKoco Is Grace Lopez ever playing for the Badgers??

Will have takeaways from the match tomorrow morning, but for now, here's Badgers volleyball coach Kelly Sheffield talking to reporters about transfers Jaela Auguste and Eva Travis, a few freshmen, international recruiting and more. badgerobserver.com/p/wisconsin-vo…

@jacobinfante24 Mason Reiger at edge rusher will be a stud.

Defensive end for the #Bears in Round 2. Go WR/CB with that other second-round pick. Kaleb Proctor in Round 3. Center in Round 4 with this deep class. Let’s ride.

@barryisthedon @CBBAnalytics @tyler_morgan28 My issue was always body language when he was struggling.

@CBBAnalytics @tyler_morgan28 Still won two games at or near the buzzer

John Blackwell is a strong addition for Duke, but he struggled in clutch time this season. Blackwell shot 26% in clutch time (7-27 FG), the last 5 minutes when the score was within 6 points. He was 1 of 6 major conference players to score 30 clutch time points on sub-30% shooting this season.

@THEbadgermaniac No chance

I also wonder if we will see a decline in collegiate coaching salaries. Is it better to just have a solid coach with a lower salary/buyout and great players, or a top end coach with lesser players?

@CBartWSJ Thanks for sharing.

@BadgerExtra Nice tribute, Jim. May his memory be a blessing.
