00:00:00.239 --> 00:00:01.600
<v Matt Houlihan>I feel like I should be quiet.

00:00:02.080 --> 00:00:07.440
<v SPEAKER_06>I just feel like it's turned into like a us against you type of thing because you wouldn't tell us what your drill is.

00:00:07.679 --> 00:00:09.039
<v SPEAKER_01>It happens quickly.

00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:10.960
<v SPEAKER_01>Is this a mob form?

00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:13.919
<v SPEAKER_06>Now we're like now we're like scream, Matt.

00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:25.760
<v Arielle Houlihan>Um, mid-season.

00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:29.120
<v Arielle Houlihan>The mid-season lull is happening, but not for us.

00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:31.359
<v Matt Houlihan>No, it's the start of start of conference for most.

00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:31.679

<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah.

00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:33.359
<v Matt Houlihan>Most people are actually just queuing up.

00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:34.960
<v Matt Houlihan>Big West is just getting started.

00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:38.479
<v Matt Houlihan>MPSF is kind of two weeks.

00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:42.240
<v Matt Houlihan>It's two weeks in technically speaking, but like some of the top 4-0.

00:00:42.479 --> 00:00:42.719
<v Matt Houlihan>That's right.

00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:44.240
<v Matt Houlihan>Stanford, Stanford on top.

00:00:44.479 --> 00:00:46.640
<v Matt Houlihan>Trying to trying to stay there, my guy.

00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:47.359
<v unknown>Yeah.

00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:49.280
<v Arielle Houlihan>How's your week of practice going?

00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:50.240
<v Arielle Houlihan>Is it great?

00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:56.479
<v Matt Houlihan>We had um we we're two days in of practice and we've had two very good practices back to back.

00:00:56.640 --> 00:00:57.920
<v Matt Houlihan>So very happy.

00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:07.920
<v Matt Houlihan>I uh we had a coach's planning session yesterday, and we came up with a new drill, and the boys went loco for it.

00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:09.040
<v Matt Houlihan>It was it was a great one.

00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:15.040
<v Matt Houlihan>You know, sometimes when you're like, I feel like we've got something good coming out of a practice planning session, but you're like, I just don't know.

00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:18.560
<v Matt Houlihan>Like there could be maybe it goes south this way, or maybe you go south this way.

00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:23.760
<v Matt Houlihan>We came up with a very well-balanced competitive drill that I'll make a video about it.

00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:26.400
<v Matt Houlihan>We'll we'll I can't do it justice explaining it here.

00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:27.280
<v Matt Houlihan>I need to I need to dab it.

00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:31.519
<v Matt Houlihan>You're gonna tease your fellow hosts by not even sharing this remote.

00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:45.200
<v Matt Houlihan>The uh the practice theme on Monday was Theron's birthday, and so I believe one of the jokes is that T, whenever he orders from Starbucks, says his name is Frank, so that he doesn't need to tell explain how to spell Theron.

00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:45.920
<v Matt Houlihan>That's fair.

00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:51.840
<v Matt Houlihan>So it was called Frank's is the Frank drill, but it was uh Frank's cutthroat.

00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:57.280
<v Matt Houlihan>So cutthroat is the name of the drill, and it uh it was very cutthroat, and it brought out a lot of good things.

00:01:57.359 --> 00:01:58.319
<v Matt Houlihan>I was very happy with it.

00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:02.799
<v Matt Houlihan>So we'll uh we'll we'll just can tease that one and we'll we'll get it up on Instagram for you guys soon.

00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:03.840
<v Matt Houlihan>I can't wait.

00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:05.840
<v Matt Houlihan>I'm on pins and needles.

00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:07.519
<v Matt Houlihan>You guys suck.

00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:09.439
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh I just want to know.

00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:11.039
<v Chad Gordon>Just tell us.

00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:14.319
<v Daniel Rasay>Can't wait to see South going two different directions.

00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:19.680
<v Matt Houlihan>First item on our docket.

00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:21.360
<v Matt Houlihan>Should I uh should I cue it up for you guys?

00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:21.840
<v Matt Houlihan>Sure.

00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:22.560
<v Matt Houlihan>All right.

00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:26.879
<v Matt Houlihan>We are uh we're we're watching this USC UCLA game.

00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:33.120
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh I feel like I should be quiet.

00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:38.879
<v SPEAKER_06>I just feel like it's turned into like a us against you type of thing because you wouldn't tell us what your drill is.

00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:42.400
<v SPEAKER_01>Is this how mobs form?

00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.439
<v SPEAKER_06>Now we're like now we're like scream, Matt.

00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:48.319
<v SPEAKER_06>We'll have our own our own drills that we run.

00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:50.879
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, I just can't do it justice without video.

00:02:51.840 --> 00:03:01.680
<v Matt Houlihan>So uh the first item on our docket was a discussion about the best heckling you've ever experienced as a player and or and or as a fan.

00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:05.840
<v Matt Houlihan>So just a little queue up of best heckling gyms.

00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:09.360
<v Matt Houlihan>Would you uh would you care to start for us over there, uh Chad?

00:03:09.599 --> 00:03:10.080
<v Chad Gordon>I can start.

00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:16.960
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, as the least athletic person on the couch, uh, I didn't play in any high heckling environments.

00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:31.039
<v Chad Gordon>Um I would say of my favorite heckling um people, Kyle Dagasino sits on the top with the whiteboard.

00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:31.680
<v SPEAKER_05>Yes.

00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:39.680
<v Chad Gordon>And and for me as a as a good Harker student, I just love the intellectual rigor that Kyle is bringing to the whiteboard.

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:41.360
<v Chad Gordon>And you know, he's making you think.

00:03:41.439 --> 00:03:48.319
<v Chad Gordon>It's not just like, hey, your fly is down, it's it's something really substantial and uh you know biting.

00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:51.439
<v SPEAKER_06>Kyle Kyle had a good run for a little while of the white person.

00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:53.199
<v Chad Gordon>This was Kyle at women's games.

00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:53.840
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, yeah.

00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:57.520
<v Chad Gordon>It would be tougher for him to do it during the men's uh yeah.

00:03:57.759 --> 00:03:59.039
<v Matt Houlihan>I'm just painting the picture for the crowd.

00:03:59.360 --> 00:03:59.840
<v Chad Gordon>Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:04.639
<v Chad Gordon>Um and yeah, he would just he'd show up with his, you know, whatever, two by three feet whiteboard.

00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:07.759
<v Chad Gordon>Like it's it's industrial size and strength.

00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:08.960
<v Chad Gordon>And he's witty.

00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:10.560
<v Chad Gordon>And so that's uh gotta get away.

00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:13.840
<v Arielle Houlihan>Kyle's a Kyle's a top tier, top-tier heckler, 100%.

00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:15.039
<v Matt Houlihan>That's a great call.

00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:16.720
<v Matt Houlihan>That was that's the OG whiteboard.

00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:18.879
<v Matt Houlihan>That's uh I stole that from him for six man.

00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:21.120
<v Matt Houlihan>That is that was a clear as day.

00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:23.600
<v Matt Houlihan>I saw that and was like, man, that's brilliant.

00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:29.439
<v Chad Gordon>It's it's just it's sharp and it's killing with kindness, but like sharp kindness.

00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:32.319
<v Matt Houlihan>Do you have a do you have a favorite uh memory of some of the things?

00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:37.279
<v Matt Houlihan>Because I I remember some very highbrow Stanford stuff that was was thrown up on.

00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:42.560
<v Chad Gordon>I I can't think of anything off the top of my head uh specific example wise.

00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:44.720
<v Chad Gordon>I want to I want to say I know how it made me feel.

00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:50.800
<v Arielle Houlihan>I remember I remember the it was the Patriots Falcons game that they blew the lead.

00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:51.439
<v Matt Houlihan>23.

00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:57.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, and I think that it was right when that had happened, and he wrote on the whiteboard like it was like a comeback.

00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:02.160
<v Arielle Houlihan>Somebody was in the in the fifth, and there was a comeback, and it was it was really funny.

00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:06.480
<v Arielle Houlihan>It was like the Falcons blew a 23 to 7 lead or something.

00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:09.519
<v Arielle Houlihan>It was a good zeitgeist joke.

00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:10.160
<v Matt Houlihan>Nice.

00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:10.800
<v Matt Houlihan>I like it.

00:05:10.959 --> 00:05:13.120
<v Matt Houlihan>All right, Ariel, coming down the coming round the horn here.

00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:13.920
<v Arielle Houlihan>I got a couple.

00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:18.079
<v Arielle Houlihan>Uh best heckler of all time.

00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:22.720
<v Arielle Houlihan>I mean, I gotta give it to Jen Joins because that's my uh your girl.

00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:25.680
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, I gotta I gotta give Jen Joins a shout-out.

00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:27.680
<v Arielle Houlihan>Uh Jen Thomas now.

00:05:27.839 --> 00:05:28.399
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yes.

00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:31.120
<v Arielle Houlihan>Uh my recruiting trip to UOP.

00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:37.439
<v Arielle Houlihan>Uh I got to I got to have a great phone call with her as of recent, uh, telling her this story.

00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:48.000
<v Arielle Houlihan>Um, but she was uh had a couple drinks probably, maybe a couple bevies, uh, and was standing down screaming at the men's team.

00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:49.920
<v Arielle Houlihan>I don't even know who Pacific was playing.

00:05:50.079 --> 00:06:01.920
<v Arielle Houlihan>And I was watching, I was on my recruiting trip, I was like six, seventeen years old, and uh I watched her screaming at the men's team, and I was like, I think I want to be like you when I grew up.

00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:05.040
<v Arielle Houlihan>And I was just like, this is sick.

00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:05.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>I'm sold.

00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:06.319
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, I'm sold.

00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:07.199
<v Arielle Houlihan>Where do I sign?

00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:07.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah.

00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:19.519
<v Arielle Houlihan>Um, but like Big West Heckel culture in 2007 and eight was primo, and rules really weren't really in place yet on that.

00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:21.360
<v Arielle Houlihan>Just starting to really toe the line on those things.

00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:24.560
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, I was really, I mean, I'm sure it was better years before.

00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:28.959
<v Arielle Houlihan>It was better in the early 2000s, I would say was like incredible.

00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:44.959
<v Arielle Houlihan>Um, but you got like Long Beach and Irvine, and like all these places that have men's volleyball teams and women's volleyball teams there too, and like you're traveling and going and the men's teams there and the women's teams there, and uh the culture was pretty legitimate.

00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:51.759
<v Arielle Houlihan>Uh, but we my team went down to Irvine and they unveiled the 2007 national championship.

00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:53.519
<v Arielle Houlihan>Did Irvine win in 2007?

00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:55.439
<v Matt Houlihan>For the men's team, probably's team.

00:06:56.720 --> 00:06:57.759
<v Matt Houlihan>2008, yeah.

00:06:57.839 --> 00:06:58.240
<v Matt Houlihan>I think eight.

00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:03.439
<v Arielle Houlihan>Um, but they had the unveiling of the banner at the women's game when we were playing them.

00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:24.000
<v Arielle Houlihan>Uh, and the men's team came in uh all dressed up and ready to unveil their national championship banner, and I heard things yelled at people that I had never heard before that was so egregious and truly hysterical.

00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:25.600
<v Arielle Houlihan>And I thought it was funny.

00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:27.920
<v Arielle Houlihan>My team did not think it was funny at all.

00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:28.720
<v Matt Houlihan>Let's hear it.

00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:30.879
<v Matt Houlihan>I mean, the Statue of Limitations is passed.

00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:31.439
<v Matt Houlihan>Let's hear it.

00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:35.360
<v Arielle Houlihan>These guys, if anybody is on that team, I'm gonna look up with the roster is on the team.

00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:36.720
<v Arielle Houlihan>So this is very incriminating.

00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:44.079
<v Arielle Houlihan>But I mean, we we walk, we're in hitting lines, and I'm like, these guys are screaming, like your legs look like cottage cheese.

00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:50.639
<v Arielle Houlihan>At girls on my team, and I'm like, that's outrageous.

00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:57.439
<v Arielle Houlihan>Like, so it was so funny to me and and also awful, but like it was also mom help.

00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:04.319
<v Arielle Houlihan>Yeah, like it was, but it was like this is what for me, I was like, this is the best culture ever.

00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:06.079
<v Arielle Houlihan>This is what it's supposed to be like.

00:08:06.399 --> 00:08:11.040
<v Arielle Houlihan>So um, yeah, that's that's my primo.

00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:12.800
<v Matt Houlihan>I like it.

00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:14.240
<v Arielle Houlihan>Primo hypo culture.

00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:16.079
<v Matt Houlihan>Daniel, what do you got?

00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:20.560
<v Daniel Rasay>Uh I've got like two very vivid memories.

00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:23.519
<v Daniel Rasay>One when I was a player and one when I was a coach.

00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:25.199
<v Daniel Rasay>We'll start with when I was a player.

00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:38.240
<v Daniel Rasay>We had a guy that transferred from Santa Barbara, where we were playing at, and I guess some of his old buddies came to the game and they just held up a sign that said, Nordberg Eats Poo.

00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:46.159
<v Daniel Rasay>And it was, you know, everyone loves a poo-poo pee-pee joke, and they just held it up, and we were cracking up, and it was hilarious.

00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:51.600
<v Daniel Rasay>And um they let him go too.

00:08:51.679 --> 00:08:55.120
<v Daniel Rasay>Like he held the sign up for the entire match and like a slow burn.

00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:55.919
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah.

00:08:57.840 --> 00:09:10.960
<v Daniel Rasay>And as a coach, Santa Barbara again, we had a guy on our team that was he was a big kid, and they were chanting 2468, Spencer Haley's overweight.

00:09:11.759 --> 00:09:15.679
<v Daniel Rasay>And our entire team was unfocused and laughing.

00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:18.240
<v Daniel Rasay>And so was Spencer.

00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:20.399
<v Daniel Rasay>But you know, it was in good fun.

00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:24.879
<v Daniel Rasay>I think it was just some of his friends that go to Santa Barbara that were there and had a good laugh.

00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:26.159
<v Daniel Rasay>But that's so funny.

00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:30.720
<v Daniel Rasay>Like burned into my memory, like, still makes me laugh every once in a while when I think about it.

00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:32.480
<v Daniel Rasay>But so good.

00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:33.440
<v Matt Houlihan>It's good stuff.

00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:34.639
<v Matt Houlihan>All right, for mine.

00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:38.639
<v Matt Houlihan>Uh I'll go, I'm gonna go when I was playing.

00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:41.600
<v Matt Houlihan>And yeah, and then I'll keep it both as when I was playing.

00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:46.559
<v Matt Houlihan>I'm gonna I'm gonna touch on similar to similar to Chad, it was a very Stanford heckle.

00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:49.919
<v Matt Houlihan>So we're at playing at Stanford, and we're in Burnham Pavilion.

00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:53.679
<v Matt Houlihan>This is the same, same match we lose 14-11 when we were up in the fifth.

00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:55.759
<v Matt Houlihan>Daniel's coaching on the other side of the net.

00:09:56.159 --> 00:10:03.679
<v Matt Houlihan>And the couple of the the KA frat boys had had come in and they're all dressed up in their costumes and whatnot.

00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:06.960
<v Matt Houlihan>But they start looking up all of our profiles, which is normal.

00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:08.159
<v Matt Houlihan>You know, they're checking out the profiles.

00:10:08.240 --> 00:10:12.399
<v Matt Houlihan>They take it a step further and they start looking up, they just do Google search.

00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:25.679
<v Matt Houlihan>And one of our players, the other outside hitter on my team, Adam Troy, in the summers runs, ran a window cleaning business with his brother back home in Rockland, California.

00:10:26.960 --> 00:10:36.080
<v Matt Houlihan>So they have now found Adam's pain-free window cleaning business on Yelp, and they just start going in.

00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:40.799
<v Matt Houlihan>Adam, I just left a one-star review on pain-free window cleaning.

00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:47.679
<v Matt Houlihan>Adam, I'm calling your I'm calling your former clients right now and letting them know there's better options in their area.

00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:50.320
<v Matt Houlihan>Just very highbrow heckles.

00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:54.320
<v Matt Houlihan>Our whole team is cracking up because we all know Adam's cracking up.

00:10:54.799 --> 00:11:02.799
<v Matt Houlihan>Again, next one as a player that was just more like just the overwhelming environment of of the heckle was Hawaii at the Stan Sheriff's Center.

00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:04.000
<v Matt Houlihan>I thought you were gonna say BYU.

00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:07.840
<v Matt Houlihan>BYU, but BYU is very same as a cave aggressive.

00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:08.480
<v Matt Houlihan>It's very similar.

00:11:08.559 --> 00:11:11.279
<v Matt Houlihan>Like I got when I got heckled at BYU, they said nice butt.

00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:13.360
<v Matt Houlihan>That's what I remember from BYU.

00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:15.360
<v Arielle Houlihan>It's pretty racy for BYU.

00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:17.759
<v Matt Houlihan>In Hawaii, that kid was expelled.

00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:24.080
<v Matt Houlihan>Hawaii, Hawaii, the you know, the student section is I wouldn't say the student section is the biggest thing at Stancherip.

00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:26.240
<v Matt Houlihan>It's mainly like the aunties and the uncles, right?

00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:31.039
<v Matt Houlihan>Like, um, but the student section that is there was kind of getting on, they were getting on as pretty, pretty hard.

00:11:31.120 --> 00:11:36.320
<v Matt Houlihan>But then you're also surrounded by just a bigger crowd than you're ever going to experience anywhere else.

00:11:36.559 --> 00:11:44.879
<v Matt Houlihan>So the uh the degree of that heckle and it being on you and there being a lot of noise and whatnot uh definitely amplified the uh the arena.

00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:47.519
<v Matt Houlihan>But those are the those are the two that stand out the most.

00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:53.519
<v Matt Houlihan>And the uh University of Hawaii is also a part of our our next item on the docket.

00:11:53.679 --> 00:11:55.039
<v Matt Houlihan>So I believe it transitions well.

00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:56.960
<v Matt Houlihan>We uh we had a moment last week.

00:11:57.200 --> 00:12:06.639
<v Matt Houlihan>Daniel just kind of off the cuff brought it up, but uh brought up the the idea of the reinstatement of their national championship and then got some more coverage.

00:12:06.720 --> 00:12:11.120
<v Matt Houlihan>We got uh the volleyball recap that posted a video breakdown as well.

00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:13.919
<v Matt Houlihan>So I wanted to provide Daniel a little opportunity here.

00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:15.279
<v Matt Houlihan>Do we is this the time?

00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:21.360
<v Matt Houlihan>Is this is this the moment that we're we're gonna make the push for the reinstatement or where where do things stand for you?

00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:28.080
<v Daniel Rasay>I mean, with the change in the landscape of college athletics where they're just throwing money left and right.

00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:29.840
<v Daniel Rasay>I mean, I guess let me go back even further.

00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:31.519
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah, lay lay the land of why.

00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:33.360
<v Daniel Rasay>Why did why did it get vacated in the first place?

00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:42.399
<v Daniel Rasay>So it was a f I think it was a fairly newly instituted rule that said uh you basically couldn't play with professionals.

00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:54.159
<v Daniel Rasay>So Costus Theo Horides, he's from Greece, and you know, we know in Europe we have all of these younger athletes playing with some of the pro clubs.

00:12:54.879 --> 00:13:16.559
<v Daniel Rasay>And he did not accept any money and did not get anything for his services, but he was playing alongside other professionals, so they deemed him a professional, which was against the rules at the time, and decided that he wasn't an eligible player when he was playing and basically stripped of our our title.

00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:20.559
<v Matt Houlihan>So he took zero dollars whatsoever playing in that league.

00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:20.799
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah.

00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:23.279
<v Matt Houlihan>Just playing in that league for development's sake.

00:13:23.360 --> 00:13:23.759
<v Matt Houlihan>Yep.

00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:29.039
<v Matt Houlihan>Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but the current landscape of that rule is is different, right?

00:13:29.120 --> 00:13:31.600
<v Matt Houlihan>You are allowed to play in a professional league.

00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:34.240
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, and you can even accept you can even accept money.

00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:37.360
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, I believe it believe it changed that even more, right?

00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:39.759
<v Matt Houlihan>Now, even more so with NIL, you're allowed to accept now.

00:13:39.919 --> 00:13:45.519
<v Chad Gordon>They go get these guys after they come out of their pro leagues and be like, you want to come play at UH and Long Beach and these places, right?

00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:48.960
<v Arielle Houlihan>Does anybody have the advantage or disadvantage based off of that?

00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:54.480
<v Arielle Houlihan>It was there other kids that could have had an opportunity had they known.

00:13:54.720 --> 00:14:02.399
<v Arielle Houlihan>Is there like is there any anything that changes the landscape for any other teams for when you played?

00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:04.960
<v Arielle Houlihan>If Do you know what I'm saying by that?

00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:08.000
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah, I I mean I don't think it changes anything.

00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:09.360
<v Daniel Rasay>I don't think it changes anything.

00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:14.240
<v Daniel Rasay>I mean the Puerto Ricans are probably doing the same thing as well, right?

00:14:14.399 --> 00:14:20.159
<v Daniel Rasay>And I guess Lewis got in trouble for some of that, but they that's a whole nother can of worms.

00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:21.200
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah.

00:14:21.440 --> 00:14:37.759
<v Daniel Rasay>But I mean, and also like when people are playing in the summer, playing with professionals, maybe it's not organized, but when people, you know, go and play in four money tournaments, that's the definition of being a professional too.

00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:43.840
<v Matt Houlihan>So every kid that goes and plays in Walpaca boat ride now deemed ineligible.

00:14:44.399 --> 00:14:48.000
<v Chad Gordon>Won those free socks and oh man, had to set up my senior season.

00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:48.559
<v Chad Gordon>Yep.

00:14:49.279 --> 00:14:49.679
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah.

00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:56.639
<v Daniel Rasay>So I mean, not a rule anymore and completely different of what's happening in college athletics, and so it makes sense.

00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:03.440
<v Daniel Rasay>But you know, thinking about it more like would the reinstatement uh change uh my life or my teammates' lives?

00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:04.320
<v Daniel Rasay>Probably not, right?

00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:05.440
<v Daniel Rasay>Because it's been so long.

00:15:05.840 --> 00:15:19.279
<v Daniel Rasay>The biggest impact is gonna be on the people of Hawaii that supported us, and you know, wow, you presented the the possibility of us, you know, firing some people up to get some reinstatement.

00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:27.919
<v Daniel Rasay>I was just thinking about this, and it is all about the people like the people that used to feed us after matches and travel to ROA matches and support us.

00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:29.840
<v Daniel Rasay>That's really who it's for.

00:15:30.639 --> 00:15:43.679
<v Daniel Rasay>And the only way that the university is gonna push for it is if uh they can figure out how to make some financial gain from it by you know bringing us in and getting more ticket sales or you know, whatever it may be.

00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:48.399
<v Daniel Rasay>But you know, I'm content in where we're at, and I think a lot of our teammates are.

00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:56.720
<v Daniel Rasay>Like we still consider ourselves champions, but uh I think the state of Hawaii would throw us another party if they were to reinstate it.

00:15:57.039 --> 00:16:00.080
<v Daniel Rasay>Well, uh correct me I'm wrong, this is your guys' first national championship, right?

00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:06.639
<v Daniel Rasay>Yeah, first first national championship, first ever men's team championship for the university as well.

00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:13.039
<v Arielle Houlihan>So I mean I I guess Is there anybody on the team that has like made a significant amount of money?

00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:15.440
<v Daniel Rasay>Which team?

00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:16.879
<v Arielle Houlihan>Your team.

00:16:18.320 --> 00:16:19.600
<v Daniel Rasay>Probably, yeah.

00:16:20.320 --> 00:16:22.879
<v Arielle Houlihan>And then donation or not.

00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:23.840
<v Matt Houlihan>Push for it.

00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:43.519
<v Matt Houlihan>I mean, obviously that would that would help the cause, but in reality, like I would I would even probably push back a little bit of like exactly what you said from a perspective of the program that is at the forefront currently and has been for a long time of being a men's volleyball bastion.

00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:51.919
<v Matt Houlihan>So much of these programs are based upon the history, and you guys are the start of championship history in Hawaii.

00:16:52.240 --> 00:17:00.480
<v Matt Houlihan>And if I'm if I'm a coach, I want every national championship banner that I can possibly point to, specifically from a like that era.

00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:12.079
<v Matt Houlihan>You're you guys, your team is now to Ariel's credit, it's now in the point where you can got people who are hitting their strides in terms of their life, their ability to reconnect with the school to be able to contribute.

00:17:12.160 --> 00:17:14.640
<v Matt Houlihan>This is the timing that makes the most sense for that.

00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:19.519
<v Matt Houlihan>Where like when Pacific got cut and I just got when I just graduated, I had no idea how to help.

00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:24.240
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, I had no I had no understanding of how to make anything better in that situation.

00:17:24.480 --> 00:17:35.759
<v Matt Houlihan>But when you have a group of individuals, like at the example of when Stanford got cut, there were so many more people that were able to fight and connect and understood how to make a difference.

00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:52.400
<v Matt Houlihan>I would say the same thing would probably go to Hawaii, and it's probably less about the money, and it's more about just the the understanding of how important that moment was in time for Hawaii as a state, Hawaii as a university, and men's volleyball as a program on campus.

00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:52.960
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah.

00:17:54.960 --> 00:17:56.319
<v Matt Houlihan>So here's our call.

00:17:56.880 --> 00:17:58.400
<v Daniel Rasay>Click the link below.

00:17:59.279 --> 00:18:07.759
<v Daniel Rasay>I mean, from what I've heard, it's definitely on the new athletic director's lists of things he'd like to do, but not a priority.

00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:08.319
<v Daniel Rasay>Sure.

00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:15.519
<v Daniel Rasay>And so I'm happy it's on his list, and maybe a couple of years down the road when he gets settled, maybe we can make a big push.

00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:16.400
<v Matt Houlihan>Squeaky wheel.

00:18:16.559 --> 00:18:18.319
<v Matt Houlihan>Squeaky wheels get the get the grease.

00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:22.079
<v Matt Houlihan>I think we just need to keep talking about it every single week.

00:18:23.759 --> 00:18:24.079
<v Matt Houlihan>No.

00:18:24.319 --> 00:18:38.000
<v Matt Houlihan>It is it is definitely something that uh is is a worthwhile thing for for Hawaii, no matter what the you know, I don't know what that process looks like in terms of getting it reinstated reinstated or just if it's an application, if it's a review, what that may be.

00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:44.799
<v Matt Houlihan>But yeah, figuring out, figuring out the way, that takes some time, but certainly something that I think we're we're all ready to to rally behind.

00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:50.880
<v Arielle Houlihan>I'm a supporter because it's our closest shot at getting a national championship on the coaches' group chat because Yeah, it's our only shot.

00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:51.759
<v Matt Houlihan>It's our only shot.

00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:53.200
<v Matt Houlihan>Oh, wait, no, it's not.

00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:54.160
<v Matt Houlihan>It's not our only shot.

00:18:54.400 --> 00:18:56.720
<v Daniel Rasay>Wait, I got one at Stanford, so I'm yeah.

00:18:57.200 --> 00:18:58.000
<v SPEAKER_00>Well, yeah, well, we have to.

00:18:58.319 --> 00:18:58.880
<v SPEAKER_00>That one doesn't count.

00:18:59.440 --> 00:19:01.440
<v Matt Houlihan>I'm gonna get one today.

00:19:01.680 --> 00:19:02.160
<v SPEAKER_00>Today.

00:19:02.400 --> 00:19:04.480
<v Chad Gordon>I can't wait to hang banners in this house.

00:19:04.960 --> 00:19:06.079
<v Chad Gordon>It's gonna be great.

00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:10.880
<v Matt Houlihan>When Stanford wins a national championship, we are hanging a banner in our living room for a year.

00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:12.160
<v Matt Houlihan>Get rid of that disco ball.

00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:15.359
<v Matt Houlihan>Can I hang a banner in the in our bedroom for a year?

00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:16.799
<v Matt Houlihan>Yeah, I'm moving.

00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:18.880
<v Matt Houlihan>We've got a good place for one right now.

00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:20.319
<v Matt Houlihan>Yep.

00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:22.240

<v Matt Houlihan>The self-christened holiday of volleyball.

00:19:28.240 --> 00:19:30.319

<v Matt Houlihan>He's on board.

<v Matt Houlihan>It's great timing.

00:19:50.640 --> 00:19:55.359
<v Arielle Houlihan>Are you trying to make that sound like it's like it's almost too good to believe?

00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:56.480
<v Matt Houlihan>Let's be real.

00:19:56.799 --> 00:19:58.880
<v Matt Houlihan>Volleyball day in the bay is for the men's volleyball team.

00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:02.160
<v Matt Houlihan>But women's volleyball is also playing, and we love the women's speech team.

00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:05.440
<v Matt Houlihan>So we're gonna we're gonna include them.

00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:06.640
