Yeah - how unstoppable would we be if our offense was comparable to our defense? I'll happily take the W though We would be ALL of the unstoppable. UnstoppablEST. The MOST unstoppable. LOL |

Based on last 2 Whitney appearances, she seems easily their most powerful hitter.
Any reason she hasn’t earned a chance to start?
Serious question, what is the issue with setting the middles in the middle?
Does Haynes basically not set Caffey due to passing, trust, and/or connection with Caffey? Haynes doesn’t set Lauren much in the middle, seems to prefer back slide which is terminal if set in right place. Always hard to figure where issue is but there appears to be no middle connection this year allowing defenses to load up on pins.
Kind of odd that the 2 most explosive hitters are Caffey/Whit but one hardly ever gets set and the other gets little/no playing time.

John Cook implied that Whitney might have started, but she missed a tutoring session this week. |

She is super athletic and very competitive. She appears to have moved ahead of Krause on the depth chart. Incredible considering where Krause was ranked and her playing experience on national teams. Krause was the hardest hitter on the team, may still be yet, her and Whitney both hammer the ball. Appears both are headed for great things. |

If Lindsay learns to avoid the block; she'll be great!

Whit has international-level athleticism and talent. It's all about owning it, skill development and game-savvy now. By her senior year, comps may go beyond her collegiate peers to the best on the international stage. Question for Hildebrand and Cook, "Is you Coach enough?" Apologies to Rihanna.

Krause was the hardest hitter on the team, may still be yet, her and Whitney both hammer the ball. Appears both are headed for great things. IMO, we all need to get used to almost weekly changes in the depth chart for the next 2 or 3 years. You have Allick, Mendelson, and Kubik coming next year, and then the awesome 23's. From what I have seen, Andi Jackson is going to be the most freakish athlete in the gym when she shows up. She is Whitney 2.0. I am not trying to slight Maisie, I just do not think that she can crack that backcourt for a few years(although she is a really good server). |
