I saw Essix was celebrated today, is she not using her red shirt year at Florida? As McKissock and AC “walked” in the Senior ceremony last season, it remains Essix’a intention to get well and come back and use her last year of eligibility at Florida next season.

24 digs tonight vs Mizzou and quite a few that were jaw dropping. TWO THOUSAND CAREER DIGS. 2,018 actually. 120 from tying the school record with at least 5 matches to go. Maybe she can do it. Career high 31 digs tonight vs Auburn, including 14 in the 1st set. 2,049 career digs. 89 from tying the school record. If Florida can make it to the Round of 32, McKissock would need to average 18 digs / match to set a new school record. What seemed unlikely 3 weeks ago seems very plausible. 20 digs vs UCF. 2,069 career digs. 69 from tying the school record. She also played in her 513th career set for Florida and she's averaging 4.03 digs/set in her 5 seasons. 2 more sets and she'll have played in more sets than any other Gator in program history. For all the talk about transferring, it's cool to see McKissock showing how fun and exciting it can be to break school records by remaining loyal to and continuing to excel at 1 program.

How does everyone feel going into the last couple matches and the tournament? There were a few choices made yesterday with moving Alec around and at one point we saw her taking swings from the left pin.

I think this will be a main reason that Martin is staying. She really can make a name for herself at Florida and become one of Florida's greatest player... an ala Murphy if you will

Hello everyone. I’m exited about how the gators have come after the loss against SC. They have a lot of improvements. I think they still have to make some adjustment on the blocking and service. Also, we need a second offensive voice after KMart. Kennedy is one a kind and the type of player we can only see once in a while. I just hope she doesn’t transfer and stay with Florida. This team have a big potential for next year for sure. Time will tell

For next year Florida will have a very solid team, assuming that Kennedy stay and Stucky and Kira get back 100% healthy. In the middle we are very good, assuming they improve the blocking and hopefully Essix decided to play her redshirt year. I really don’t understand why we are getting more liberos or DS, when the team already have like 8 smh. I’m hoping we get some good 6 rotation OH on the transfer portal. we need at least 2 more OH, just in case Kira is not 100% and also, we already seen what Lauren is able to do. They need to work very hard on the passing skill. We need more 6 rotation players. Hoping the team stay healthy and we will be a real contenders. More hitters and less DS please

Mary is going to liquidate all of her assets to come up with an offer for Martin to not leave lol Seems she would be playing Stuckey instead of Parks if she was worried about losing her like they’re saying in the tea. Maybe Mary knows Stuckey is looking around so isnt playing her because of that. If anyone knows how to lose good players it’s Mary Wise. Parks has improved tremendously since HS and can set Martin but she struggles with typical height sets and everywhere else on the court. If I were Mary I would stick to my bread and butter to keep Stuckey happy and let Parks go find a mid major next year where she can excel Wow, some people will pick apart any player. Parks is a freshman sharing time with a great player coming back from injury. She has done fabulous work and we don't want her going nowhere. It is an insult to suggest Parks belongs on a mid major team after what she has shown as just a freshman in the SEC this year.

It is an insult to suggest Parks belongs on a mid major team after what she has shown as just a freshman in the SEC this year. Eh many in the field know she was set for a mid major if not for getting the preferred walk on offer as a back up to Stuck due to her relationship with Wise. She out landed her ranking due to the connection, willingness to play backup to a nationally recruited setter and also her not needing a scholly due to getting in state money. All of the in state back row specialists coming in are in similar circumstances which is why Mary keeps so many on Like I said Parks has improved tremendously with the expert coaching there but she is not high D-1 material and it shows. It’s not just VT chatter. The lack of Stuckey’s expertise had them losing to USF, GTech etc, and now lower in the rankings than they’ve been in years. Stuckey re-entering part time has helped, and I don’t blame her for not being at 100 percent at all, but can’t wait for her to be back at it full time.
