Ep 28: State of the Leagues: All-Inclusive Bahamas, All-Star Debates, and All-Around Expansion
Episode 31
Wednesday, 4 March, 2026

February is officially in the rearview mirror, which means the "spring sprint" is on. This week on Side Out Society, Tiff and Lindsay take the pulse of the professional volleyball world in their second State of the Pros address. We kick things off with a jam-packed college update, looking ahead to a high-stakes spring schedule featuring matchups like Nebraska vs. Creighton and a Big 10 showdown between Wisconsin and Minnesota. Plus, we share some exciting intel on the new Paradise Invitational, an all-inclusive fan experience heading to the Bahamas this September where you can catch Kentucky, Houston, Purdue, and SMU in the ultimate volleyball vacation at the beach. Then, we shift gears to the pro ranks to discuss the hiring of Jamie Weston as the new MLV Commissioner and the "Mavericks-level" investment of Jason Kidd in the Dallas Pulse. We also dive into the expansion buzz, wondering what the new Minnesota team will be named. The real heat comes during our All-Star dissection. We pull back the curtain on our official ballots for the March 28th All-Star Game in Orlando, debating the "video game numbers" of rookies like Mimi Colyer and the defensive dominance of Morgan Hentz. Plus, we celebrate the newest members of the USA Volleyball Hall of Fame. Grab your McDonald's Diet Coke and settle in for the full breakdown.
