Good morning everyone. We’ve got a lot to get to as we inch closer to the start of football season so let’s get right to it!

Dots

  • The Seattle Times’ Scott Hanson has a review of the offseason for UW women’s volleyball, as Leslie Gabriel’s squad has added some talent through the transfer portal, after coach Gabriel’s contract was extended in February.
  • Some sad news as former UW running back Dr. Charles Mitchell has passed away at 85. Andy Yamashita has more here.
  • Christian Caple has his list of 8 players who could raise UW’s ceiling in 2025 at On Montlake ($).
  • And Christian and Danny have a new episode of Say Who, Say Pod out.
  • The coaching carousel got amped up in CFB 26 with the addition of real coaches, so who’s ready for UW Football coach Bret Bielema:

That’s all we have for today, so thank you for making Dots a part of your morning and as always, go Dawgs!

Eight former University of Arkansas student-athletes have been selected as members of the 2025 class of the University of Arkansas Sports Hall of Honor, the university’s athletic department announced Monday (July 28).

Makeba Alcide (women’s track & field), Brian Baker (men’s track & field/cross country), Zack Cox (baseball), the late Ryan Mallett (football), C’eira Ricketts (women’s basketball), James Rouse (football), Dwight Stewart (men’s basketball) and Clint Stoerner (football) will be inducted in a ceremony to be held Sept. 26, 2025, at the Walton Arts Center in Fayetteville.

Mallett will be inducted posthumously.

The ceremony is set for the night prior to the Razorbacks’ first-ever meeting with Notre Dame at 11 a.m. inside Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium.

Inductees are elected to the UA Sports Hall of Honor based on a vote by former Razorback letterwinners in conjunction with the A Club.

“Every year it is a privilege to induct our Razorback greats into the University of Arkansas Sports Hall of Honor, and this year is no exception,” Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Hunter Yurachek said in a statement. “Our 2025 class represents individuals whose achievements, character and legacy have forever shaped the proud tradition of Razorback Athletics. It will truly be a fantastic weekend honoring them in September.”

Following are brief notes on the 2025 UA Sports Hall of Honor inductees.
Makeba Alcide
A St. Lucian native, Alcide competed for the Razorback women’s track and field team from 2009 to 2013, excelling in the pentathlon and heptathlon. She set a then-collegiate record in the pentathlon with a score of 4,569 points to win the 2013 SEC Indoor title and then finished third at the NCAA Championships.

Brian Baker
A distance runner and member of the Razorback dynasty in the 1990s, Baker was part of nine national championship team titles accumulated by Arkansas from 1990 to 1993, which included a pair of national triple crowns in 1992 and 1993.

Zack Cox
Cox spent two years as the third baseman for the Razorbacks in 2009-10 and proved himself as one of the best hitters in school history. His season batting average of .429 and hit total of 102 in 2010 still lead all Arkansas hitters over a decade later.

Ryan Mallett
One of the most prolific passers in Razorback history, Mallett came to Arkansas after playing his freshman season at the University of Michigan. In two years as a Razorback, Mallett completed 491 of 814 pass attempts for 7,493 yards and 62 touchdowns.

C’eira Ricketts
Ricketts was an All-Southeastern Conference guard for the Razorbacks from 2008-12. The Louisville, Ky.-native’s name is sprinkled throughout the Arkansas record books, including being eighth in total career points.

James Rouse
Rouse played football for four years for the Razorbacks (1985, 1987–1989), rushing for 2,887 yards and 39 touchdowns. In the 1987 season, Rouse ran for 1,004 yards and 17 touchdowns, giving the Razorbacks their first 1,000-yard rusher since Ben Cowins in 1978.

Dwight Stewart
Stewart was a three-time letterwinner for the Razorbacks from 1993 to 1995, after transferring to Arkansas from South Plains Junior College. The big man helped the Hogs to 85 victories, three Sweet Sixteens, two Elite Eights, two Final Fours, two consecutive NCAA Tournament Championship Games and the 1994 NCAA National Championship.

Clint Stoerner
Stoerner was a Second-Team All-SEC quarterback in 1998 and 1999 leading the Razorbacks to a share of the SEC Western Division title in 1998. Stoerner was Arkansas’ offensive leader in each of three years – 1997-1999 – as well as Arkansas’ total offensive leader – 528 passes completed and 57 touchdowns.

MORAGA, Calif. — The Tyler Hildebrand era of Saint Mary’s Volleyball inches closer and closer, with the program’s exhibition scheduled for August 16, and their season opener on August 29. The slate will feature some top competition for the Gaels in non-conference play, featuring three early season tournaments and a two day trip to Oklahoma. This should gear the Gaels up to full strength by the time of their conference opener on September 25. Here’s a breakdown of the 2025 Saint Mary’s Volleyball Schedule.

HOME FOR THE ROADRUNNERS

The Gaels loan non-conference foe to come to UCU Pavilion will be the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners, who will make their way to Moraga for an exhibition clash on August 16. This will be fans first chance to get a look at Coach Hildebrand’s Gaels, and admission will be free to the public for the match slated to start at 5:30 PM. 

A TRIO OF TOURNAMENTS

The Gaels will take part in the NDSU/UND Tournament (Aug. 29 – 31) split between Grand Forks and Fargo, North Dakota, the Baylor Classic (Sep. 5 – 6) in Waco, Texas, and the SLO Classic (Sep. 18 – 20) in San Luis Obispo, California. The season opens in Grand Forks on August 29, when the Gaels take on one of their two tournament hosts, the North Dakota Fighting Hawks on August 29 at 4 PM PST. It will be a quick turnaround for Saint Mary’s, who will get a 25 win Bowling Green team from a year ago just 17 hours later at 9 AM PST, before making the trek 80 miles south to Fargo. There, they will finish off the tournament with the Bison of North Dakota State at 9 AM PST on August 31. 

A week later, the Gaels will find themselves in Waco, Texas, as competitors in the Baylor Classic. The two day tournament will see the Gaels open with Northwestern on September 5 at 12:30 PM PST, their first Power Four opponent of the Fall. That evening, the Gaels will get their second P-4 opponent, host Baylor at 5 PM PST, a team that made the second round of the NCAA Tournament a year ago. Saint Mary’s will close their Texas trip with another Lone Star opponent, the Owls of Rice, finishing things up on September 6 at 12 PM PST. 

Saint Mary’s final non-conference tournament of the Fall will be their closest to home, heading to San Luis Obispo for the SLO Classic for the third straight year. Opening up against the host Mustangs at 6 PM on September 18, the Gaels will look to exact revenge after falling to their host each of the last two seasons in this tournament. Saint Mary’s will then get Cal Baptist on September 19 at 1:30 PM, before closing out with their final NCAA Tournament foe from a year ago, Utah, at 11 AM on September 20. 

STORMIN’ INTO NORMAN

On September 12 and 13, the Gaels will spend a pair of days in Norman, Oklahoma, taking on the Sooners for a pair of 4 PM PST matches. Like Baylor and Utah, Oklahoma made it to the second round of last year’s NCAA Tournament. This will be the first all-time meeting between the Gaels and Sooners. 

PUTTING THE “W” IN WCC

The Gaels will quest for their first WCC Title since 2009 in a conference that will have a gaudy 12 teams with the addition of Seattle University. The Gaels are coming off of a ninth place finish in WCC play a year ago, but have finished in the top five in the conference in four of the last seven seasons. Saint Mary’s will open conference play with a roadtrip to Oregon, taking on Oregon State (Sep. 25, 6 PM) and Portland (Sep. 27, 1 PM). The month of October will kick off with the Gaels home opener against conference co-runner up San Diego (Oct. 2, 6:30 PM), followed two days later with a meeting against defending conference champs LMU (Oct. 4, 1 PM). The Gaels will ride a three game winning streak against Pacific into Stockton (Oct. 9, TBA) before coming home for a Saturday night marquee showdown with rival Santa Clara (Oct. 11, 5 PM). After seven days off, the Gaels will head to Spokane to take on Gonzaga, (Oct. 18, 12 PM) now under first year head coach JT Wenger. The Pacific Northwest duo of Seattle (Oct. 23, 6:30 PM) and Portland (Oct. 25, 2 PM) will make their way to UCU Pavilion, followed by another seven day break before the Gaels make the return trip to conference newcomer Seattle (Nov. 1). Oregon State will make their first trip to Moraga since 2003 (Nov. 6, 6:30 PM) followed by the Gaels trekking south to San Diego (Nov. 8, 12 PM). Saint Mary’s will then get four straight games in the Bay Area, a road contest at San Francisco (Nov. 13, 6 PM), followed by three straight at home against Gonzaga (Nov. 15, 2 PM), Pacific (Nov. 20, 6:30 PM) and Washington State (Nov. 22, 2 PM). The matchup with the Cougars will be the Gaels Senior Day matchup. The final roadtrip of the season will feature defending WCC champs LMU (Nov. 26, 2 PM) and the Gaels only look at 2024 WCC co-runner ups Pepperdine (Nov. 29, 12 PM). 

OVERALL OUTLOOK

The Gaels should be tested early and often in non-conference, seeing a trio of NCAA Tournament teams (Baylor, Oklahoma and Utah) and two other 20+ win teams (Bowling Green and Cal Poly). On top of this, the Gaels will play exclusively on the road from August 29 through September 20. This grueling non-con schedule should prepare the Gaels to make some noise in conference play. In the WCC slate, the Gaels will see two of the conference powerhouses (San Diego and LMU) at home in week two of conference play, and will see a pair more (LMU and Pepperdine) in the final week of the season, a good barometer for the team’s growth through WCC play. The full schedule can be found here.

Four Nebraska volleyball players were named to the preseason All-Big Ten team. Juniors Andi Jackson, Harper Murray, and Bergen Reilly were unanimous selections. Senior Rebecca Allick rounded out the quartet.

All four had outstanding seasons. Jackson was named to the 2024 AVCA All-America first-team and was a unanimous All-Big Ten first-team selection. Murray was an AVCA second-team All-American selection and was named the NCAA Lincoln Regional Most Outstanding Player.

Reilly made history in her own right. She would become the first player in Big Ten history to win Big Ten Setter of the Year as both a freshman and sophomore. She, too, was named to the AVCA All-America second-team.

Allick finished 2024 with a .357 hitting percentage, which was the best in her career. She also had one point for three blocks per set, which was a team-high. This ranked third among Big Ten players and No. 14 overall nationally.

All in all, this roster is shaping up nicely for Dani Busboom-Kelly. The Huskers should be in a position to compete for a national championship once again.
