I was. Chris Seiffert's big brother Eric played at USC from 93-96. He was a MB/Opp. Ok, just got confused because you went from setting (and one Seiffert) to Eric (which is obviously - not setting!) - I'm with you now!

Yep, I'm with the previous poster - the PSU libero does stand up a lot!! They keep saying PSU will miss him next year, why? Don't they have a bunch of other guys currently on their bench who are just standing around right now!?

Oh well, at least the boys got a 'free' trip to Hawaii out of it!

Wasn't the PSU libero the first-team AVCA pick?

Ooops. The UCLA libero was first team. PSU guy was second team.
I thought the UCSB libero was the best guy I saw out of the whole bunch. Too bad he plays in a crappy program.

I think Mattei is fed up with going to the Final Four every year and going away empty. He's probably tired of giving the same "well...it's such an honor just to be nominated" speech.
BTW, did anyone notice Marlowe's comment that Doug Beal says the only college player who's the close to Olympic calibre right now is Sean Rooney. I haven't seen any college player who's really world-class.

Nice! Game five, BYU-Lewis...wonder how many 'average sports fans' came back from the kitchen (or bathroom) and are completely confused now!! ;D
Never mind, they've now got 'recorded earlier' in the top corner.

I haven't seen any college player who's really world-class. Yeah, but I've spent some time with the National Team and Sean definitely has that type of ability. Granted Pepperdine came up a bit short this season, but having seen Sean "in action" (in the gym at C-Sprgs), I know what Doug's saying. He'll be there one day (in the near future).

I know they were looking at Ryan S. who after seeing the Penn State libero. I would have rather seen him on that All American team instead.

Maybe as a 6'9" libero, but he doesn't have anywhere near the stick to be an international player. He better lift some serious weights, and do some serious pylos. He isn't fast-twitch enough.
