Wow, WSU just lost in 5 sets to Oregon State at HOME. Wacky week. Stanford, WSU, USC, etc. All top teams in Pac 12 (except Oregon and ASU) lost. Stanford can't get complacent now. They still have many tough matches down the road. What the?? What’s up with WSU? They have not looked as sharp as of late

Based on the Stanford insiders in this thread does this mean we got Harvey? Lol I thought we only had one recruit that was shaky

As I've stated in the past I'm not that high on Mullen. That's not to say she won't be a pretty good collegiate player, just not a game changer type talent, which I think we are looking for here at Stanford. Of course I could be wrong, but I believe I was right on Batenhorst a few years ago as I questioned her arm swing and approach.

How many of them are still uncommitted? How many game changers do you think there are in most classes, approximately? Not trying to put you on the spot. I’m genuinely interested in the answer. And I’m with you. Stanford should be looking for game changers for sure.

I suspect they are in great position for all three given how quiet it is on their recruiting fronts.

Damn first match I haven’t watched and I expected them to take care of business this is very shocking tio me. How far down the rankings do we expect them to fall? I mean they still have all those H2H wins and Oregon didn’t get punished too bad I am infinitely more concerned about hosting the 2nd weekend than I am about rankings. But since you asked, I would imagine #4 most likely, #5 at the worst. even with todays loss, stanford is still sitting at #3 in figstats behind nebraska and surprisingly texas

UT’s conference schedule was front loaded to a ridiculous degree. They have some massive hits coming to their raw RPI even if they win out.

And I’m with you. Stanford should be looking for game changers for sure. To answer your question, it varies from class to class. That is, there isn't exactly a quota. Generally it is someone who can achieve 1st team AA status and probably more than once. So Kami Miner and Kendall Kipp would probably fall into that category amongst current Stanford players. If you look back a few years, Plummer and Hentz (and perhaps Gray) are other game changers. Game changers who aren't committed yet, maybe Logan Parks.

She was smart and knew who to set to score points. Also a great blocker. I love her leadership. I don't feel the sense of urgency for the current team. I want them to get MAD MAD MAD the way they played or the way the opponent routed them. I would like to see the fire. When they made mistakes, I wanted them to be pissed and not just smiled and "oh well, it was ok!" Their body language during the ASU game was not good.
