I have been following volleyball at Stanford now for ten years.  I have sensed the whole college sport system is losing its role in education.  The Stanford teams have been real and stable year to year.  They smile and support each other.  I like watching the sport.  Less physical and more teamwork.  Sometimes lately we seem more like trolls than fans.
