Anyone have PrepDig access and see where our Texas girls ranked in their updated rankings. You don't need an account as far as I can see. They have Devin at 4, Marianna at 6, Halter at 60 For 23: Swindle at 5, Bunton at 10, Byrd 16, Helmers 35, Tomkinson 46 PrepV released their updated & final 2022 senior rankings recently. IMO, Singletary is way too low..... #2 Devin Kahahawai #11 Marianna Singletary #22 Emma Halter

I just think that we're a little biased as Texas fans. She has a heavy arm and so much better at slide than Brionne was at her sophomore year at UT. I think her blocking is needing some work though. I think she has the same trajectory as Brionne in terms of potentially. That's my hope at least.

Does anyone know a way to measure some of the most effective serving teams at Texas and across the country? It just seems obvious to me this next season’s squad has an opportunity to be a collection of all time talent from the service line.

It just seems obvious to me this next season’s squad has an opportunity to be a collection of all time talent from the service line. Obviously, total aces and aces per set. But I get it, those stats don't account for all the non-aces that put the other team OOS... I guess what you would really need is to know what the opponent's average passing stats are, and then compare the same stats in a TX game

By way too low, I imagine they are objecting to Allick being a higher ranked middle on that list. Their post said as much before they edited it.

Their post said as much before they edited it. Imo I think singletary has a higher ceiling than Allick but atm allick is a better blocker than singletary so I think that’s why allick is ranked higher

The real purpose in rankings is that they generate clicks and discussion.
The only practical purpose they serve is to prevent ratings creep. I remember back in the 70s and 80s following football recruiting with no legitimate lists, and basically every recruit was amazing. This especially became frustrating from the mid 80s to late 90s when so many of these amazing players were actually terrible.
The ratings system isn’t perfect. This isn’t a science. But at least it forces the person giving the ratings to choose between one player and another, rather than just saying everyone is wonderful, which is what happens without ratings.
Whether Singletary is #1 or number #11, or the #1, 2 or 3 MB in the class doesn’t matter as much to me as she’s in that top tier. All of these kids have a long way to go to meet their highest potential, and nowhere is that more true than MB. How her career winds up will have more to do with what she does when she gets to Austin than anything else. That said, I love her potential. I can hardly wait to see how she develops. I believe she’s going to be awesome.

Is conventional wisdom that Singletary redshirts next season? I doubted it before the addition of Bergsmark, but now it seems like we have enough depth to redshirt her as she develops, and still have option on the RS with Devin and Parra/Skinner if Molly were to return to the middle.

I hope she does. That’s been a bit of a tradition for Texas middles as well. With Asjia, Bella, and Molly, I really don’t see a need to waste a year of eligibility, if she’s okay with it. She could massively improve her transitioning and blocking skills and have a chance at being a four year starter (most likely three though, which is still incredible for a top program like Texas)

Their post said as much before they edited it. This discussion is an example of why I think many volleyball fans on this site don't properly interpret the rankings, plus I think they should be presented in a different format. To me, many fans here apply too much of an internal differentiator to the differences in rank. For example, the complaint that started this is about one of our Texas recruits being #11 in the country. The complaint makes me think that the poster believes the ranking is significantly lower than where the next highest middle is ranked. In reality based on rankings from other sports like football, the evaluation of the two is most likely almost even with no significant difference. This is why I wish the volleyball rankings would also adopt the star system like recruit rankings in most other sports. While most also have the #1, #2, #3 ranking like this, the star system is the primary ranking used in discussion in many other sports. Based on the typical football ranking having about 30-35 5* players, applying the star system to this discussion would mean that almost certainly both Singletary and Allick would be 5* recruits with the message that they are similar level recruits with similar expectations of performance in college.

Even with the star system football and basketball recruiting fans argue passionately about rankings and often describe how they think a 5 star recruit is rated way too low. It generates discussion, which is the lifeblood of forums like these. From that perspective it’s not a bad thing. Nothing worse than a forum where there are no new posts for days on end.
