That's a good point, because Orr is top notch and delivers balls accurately. What do the say in the the real estate business, location, location, location. particularly to the right. watching her set Londot was *chef's kiss* can she come to OSU and do it again? Podrazas back setting is NOT it

I actually made a similar comment several days ago and was "hammered" by some Nebraska posters, but this is a Nebraska thread, so not unexpected. I believe the Gatorade POY award committee not only considers on the court achievements but off as well. You need to be well rounded to win it. Knowing that Texas typically has several explosive athletes, I was thinking they might have been overlooked. I guess we'll see how she does at the collegiate level. Explosiveness isn't everything and volleyball IQ often can make up some of the difference. You were surprised that she was Texas POY. You must really be surprised now. Maybe your just a lousy judge of ability. What was your opinion of Luka Doncic? Not explosive and overrated? If you think that it's a lousy judge of ability just because the player ended up winning big awards then I think your judge of ability is the only thing that needs to be checked. If you judge ability solely based on who wins high school awards I am worried.

Your right, and most everyone else that has watched her play for hours against other top players and in pressure situations is wrong.

particularly to the right. watching her set Londot was *chef's kiss* We made pesto last night ... when you add garlic to basil and throw in some parmesan cheese, olive oil, pine nuts, and a little salt, bellissimo! Pine nuts are overrated. Doesn't matter how much you macerate them in your mortar & pestle, or how long you kick them in your food processor, there's still that fibrous little chewy bit. It's an annoyance in pesto.

I judge her ability specifically from being at the club tourneys where her court was surrounded by every high profile college coach you can name and listening to what they were saying. But what do they know? I'm sure Joe Rando from VT that watched some clips has better insight.

Plus Ally has had a semester at NE, to watch and train so if she needed to work on something she has had the time to do just that. She will be fine.

she's played on the right in club. There's too much put into "natural positions" (this isn't directed @ you, I saw it on some other thread too)
Foecke played middle coming into Nebraska. That turned out okay.
Right I loved when they would set up situations for Foecke to hit from the middle and (occasionally) take people off guard. If you're the #1 recruit/award winner/player/whatever, the only way you can realistically go is down. Besides, I don't necessarily want any player getting "all world" numbers at Nebraska. I'd much rather have a balanced attack. I remember when I used to worry Kelsey Robinson's arm was going to fall off with all the swings she would be getting sometimes.

I got a notification for that and I totally thought it was a Sun/Stivrins thing.... disappointed again Every time I see new posts in thread I’m hoping for that news too Still no news on Lexi and Lauren?
This thread has been too quiet. Relegated to talking about pesto; really!?

Based on a previous post, I think Huskerjen has some tea but cannot share. The longer it goes I suspect it means at least one, if not both, are coming back. On the other hand.... I have no tea. Just waiting....

Just waiting.... I think the opposite given they both posted "last dance" memes right as the NCAA tournament was starting.
