Alright another silly topic for the offseason. I wish there was a way you could search for this ala google to see how many "hits" you would get. Over the past season which players name has been mentioned on this board more than any other. You could go with the obvious, Pavan, Barboza, Klineman etc, but I wonder if there would be any surprises? Edited to add: I guess people don't have a sense of humor  |

Are you trying to jump-start something here? Morgan Beck came up once only on the search thingy. The one post? Yours. |

Search engine hits would be misleading. For example, Kim Willoughby was mentioned many many times during her reign from 2000-2003. However, posts referred to her as:
Kim
Kim W.
Willoughby
Willowby
Willoughbeast
KW
...among others.
We know what these mean but will the search engine?

I can help here, a little. The information exists for how many outside of Volley Talk are directed here based on search information. This might be a good cross section. |

Per google, some of these may be artificially high because they are more common names than others, but interesting nontheless:
Kim Willoughby 13,700 hits
Logan Tom 56.500
Kerri Walsh 116,000
Misty May 205,000
Some current players
Cynthia Barboza 9,330
Sarah Pavan 16,800
Courtney Thompson 29,200
Some coaches:
Dave Shoji 16,600
Mary Wise 77,400
Andy Banachowski 748
Just for comparison
Al Gore 18,000,000
Barack Obama 2,170,000
Dick Cheney 2,630,000
and yes, I have too much time on my hands right now.

Increase the number of days to search and the max results, and you'll get more than that. I got 148 matches over 500 days. Morgan is a fine player and overall a really cool, down to earth person. She's not much different than any other young female college student, except that she's 6'3". She's probably having a good laugh with all the attention she gets.  |

Is that Morgan's brother in the background? I definitely see a resemblance.

I got a bit of practice touching up redeye in that photo. That guy's eyes also looked red in the original. |
