I really would like to see:
Krause L1 (Knuckles DS) Kubik L2 (6 ro) Sun RS (Akana sub) Hames Rodriguez Stivrins M1 Caffey M2
Sun doesn't need to be the OOS baller. Krause is getting set OOS because she's Krause, not because Hames has some sort of personal tendency to reverse the flow or set behind in crunch situations. She would get the same balls on the left and she would likely be more comfortable. Sun can kill in system balls on the RS.
That said, I think at this point we just need to hope for Sun to perform similarly to what she's done in previous years because I don't see Cook making the change. Krause is an improvement over Sweet and Kubik is playing at a high level so hopefully that'll be enough.

Krause and Sun are both good blockers and if Sun's biggest challenge is hitting OOS, giving Krause a chance to do it from the OH would resolve that (or at least give a good measurement of who the best option is). I love Ally but I do like having Lexi out there-she seems good for team chemistry, and Ally will get opportunities, if someone else is struggling. Truthfully, I would love to see Whit get out there a little more often, too. I know she isn't real consistent but it took Krause a little bit to become consistent, too. Whit is a crazy athlete. It sure is a luxury to have so many good options!

I still think they should go the Texas route. Put your two best hitters on the left pin... that way there is not one rotation where you dont have someone you trust to take an OOS swing in the front row when you have Krause on the right side, you limit that by one or two rotations Is there a metric huskergeek that shows points won by rotation (or sideout % per rotation) Short Answer: There is not. Long Answer: I tried to create something similar in the past, but due to the way the NCAA used to track substitutions it was essentially a lot of guesswork and assumptions. The more detailed play-by-play that is being implemented should make this easier, and I would like to take another swing at it in the future but that will require a not insignificant number of changes to my database. However, as I write this it occurs to me that I already track servers and results and might be able to do something with that. I'll have to ponder that question a bit more. Current answer is still no though.

I would like to see Callie come in on the Anni dub sub and when the play starts , she goes to middle and Lo goes to RS. That would be a big block with 2 experienced blockers.

This might be crazy, and maybe even blasphemous, but if none of our outside hitters work out satisfactorily, would it be viable to convert Stivrins to an outside hitter this late in the season and her career and bring Callie back in the middle? What a front line we'd have with Stivrins, Krause, and Callie or Caffey in at the same time.

You would never replace what Stivirins gives NU in the middle with what you could get from the left. It would be a net negative in scoring production.

And she wouldn’t be anywhere near as good as the players you’re trying to replace. I agree it would be net negative all the way around by a lot. I would say she is the biggest reason they are playing just about as good as anyone in the last 10 games. If she’s not in the middle this Wisc game is a sweep.

Lol I asked a question y'all xD give a TLDR(Listen) for the lazy Me: wouldn’t it be good in the long term for Lexi to occasionally get in system sets in addition to the OOS junk cuz that L1 position badly needs a confidence boost Cool: good point but we’d rather set our middles and we train Lexi to be able to hit OOS Lol
