Except for the 5th year senior transfers that Robyn brought in, mostly Shoji's last recruits. Robyn's first true recruiting class will be coming in next year. Unfortunately, this year may be too painful to watch. If I'm not mistaken, even true freshman Trinity Castaneda committed under Shoji's watch. Losing Emily Maglio to graduation was a huge loss as she was probably the only true terminator on last years team. No one is even coming close to replacing her production this year so far.

Yeah, seems to have things missing - vibe, cohesion, flow - not sure. Hopefully Gaskin, Burns and Castillo can do what they did against SDSU the rest of the season. Akiu is awesome. Not sold on 6-2, Wahine better off with Iosia as full time setter?

Wahine put up a better fight against Oregon on Friday night compared to Thursday, but you can really see the disparity in the level of talent between the two teams. Other than Akiu who is the real deal, Wahine passing sux hairy ballz.
