Feb 10, 2026 · 22 min · 9 segments
Sara has a chat with Sadie about a pretty bumpy first two years playing US college volleyball. When a coach turns “bad” how to do you stick it out or decide to change plans. Learning who you are…
Yeah, and it was okay.
I mean, it was two days.
It was summer.
It was exciting.
We were lifting.
We were conditioning.
We were doing all that you do.
I was meeting the girls.
I didn't know anyone going in.
So kind of just that experience of meeting new people.
And it was all going great.
And then one day...
It kind of, I don't know, it kind of turned.
We had practice and we were not getting this drill and it was just not very, it was not going good.
And he flipped a switch and we had never seen this part of him.
It had always been like happy-go-lucky, like whatever.
and he flipped a switch and there was yelling and ball cart throwing and balls being drop kicked at the ceiling and he yelled at us to get out of his gym and i kind of looked around and the sophomores like were booking it to the
door
and i was like oh oh this is not like this is for real
Like you guys were getting kicked out of the gym.
Yeah.
He said, get the hell out of my gym.
And it was like, okay.
And we got out.
And I was like, okay, do we go home? What happens? And the sophomores kind of were looking around.
Yeah, and it was okay.
