Coach Bryant on Da Silva…
“We were very fortunate to land a player of Ryan’s caliber so late in the 2025 recruiting cycle. He is an instinctive and explosive player who has the potential to be an amazing outside attacker. He is a consistent serve receiver and defender with the skills to score from both the front and back rows. Seeing him continue to develop over the coming seasons will certainly be very exciting.”
