Who is going to the scrimmage tomorrow and can give us a report back? Will it be streamed at all No streaming. fightingillini.com/news/2019/8/22/volleyball-set-for-annual-orange-vs-blue-scrimmage-on-saturday.aspxI vote for a Brucks report; lots of info, fair, and thorough assessment. I'm planning to attend, but can write my report now...the hot dogs are great, setter-hitter connection lukewarm, slower and predictable offense, 85% of the offense to the OH, multiple weak blocking combinations for the BIG coaches to cannibalize, the hot dogs are great. I need the Tennessee matches to have a clue about this team. The only thing I know is the hot dogs are great!!! Unless the hot dogs are from Portillos or Nathan’s - no thank you!

I'm looking forward to the intrasquad format as we'll get to see the full (healthy) roster getting lots of reps. Hope Huff Hall is lively tomorrow so the new Illini can get a feel for the home game atmosphere!

Two male players. A setter for Mica. A hitter for Prince.
Players are rotating between the two teams so no real score that will mean anything.
Bruna bombed in a kill early.

Bruna has a lot of power but she needs to keep it on the court.
Alyssa Eske is going to be really good. Lot of good players ahead of her but she can play. She will at least serve. Excellent and they are letting her serve about every third server. No rules. Lol

Kennedy Collins is a player. She’s a lot bigger than I thought.
Hinton is playing well.
I like Swanson although she appears to need strength.
Good battle for second middle.

Not a fan of the format but I understand why they did it. No real rotations so it seemed like everything was a bit out of sync with players changing sides between almost every point. Did I mention I’m an Eske fan? We need Mica to get healthy.
