Here’s the scenario I’d love to see and why: Ashley start if she can get her location together this season. She’s enough of a strong defender that I think if she gets her location and nerves together, I’d prefer her to Jhenna. I’d LOVE to see Jhenna take the DS spot from Claire Hahn. I prefer her serve to Claire’s, I think she reads hitters well and her on-court presence is more dynamic. It also gives us a better second contact outlet if Ashley has to take the first contact or if our passing breaks down and Ashley can’t chase down balls off the net. Overall, I like Jhenna and will be happy either way, but I want to see Ashley succeed. There were moments her freshman year she reminded me of Hannah Allison, and if she can peak her last two years, that’d be amazing! Do you think they would consider a 5-2? Jhenna sets in back row, Ashley in front?

The only reason to run a 5-2 would be if the front row setter were a better blocker than the potential 4th pin hitter, correct? Otherwise you don’t gain anything. And if Ashley’s location has improved enough for her to be a front row setter, I’d imagine it’s good enough for her to play all six rotations. Maybe A Gator’s fan who wanders into this thread could explain... Coach Wise seems to favor that set up most years.

IM genuinely curious to see the benefits of one If you had a small setter who can't block and a taller one who can but not too much difference in setting style with a 6 rotation RS who hits well out of the back row. It would really help if the RS was a primary passer.

It would really help if the RS was a primary passer. If you don't want your primary setter in the front row, a 5-2 might make sense over a 6-2 if: *you don't have a 4th pin who will add anything (maybe the 2nd setter's block and on-2 offense is a wash to 2nd opp's production) *you want to keep the slide attack available in transition *your second setter is bad in the back row or has poor footspeed (it's much easier to transition set from 2 than 1) *you want your opposite playing 6 rotations for whatever reason But a 5-2 doesn't happen in any coach's ideal situations.

Curious to know what did Texas run when Chloe Collins was setting? In her freshman season, she was the back up to Hannah Allison; played a little in a 6-2, but mainly she was the backup in a 5-1 offense.
In her sophomore season, Texas used both setters in a 6-2 offense the entire season.
Final two seasons, Chloe set in a 5-1 offense.

Coach Elliott used Mirta as a blocking sub late in sets for Chloe- remember the great Alhassan stuff? Plus she had major hops and wasn’t a huge liability against less physical opponents.

IM genuinely curious to see the benefits of one You need setters who can hit to run a 6-2. And not just hit, but hit better than whomever you have riding the pines as a RS.

It was a 2-setter offense, with Hannah Nicole Dalton and Chloe subbing in for the Opposites, Khat and Paulina, in the back row.
