"Smrek rotating to BR would be interesting!" Sheffield was quoted in an article last year that he though Smrek could play in the backrow lol coaches say a lot of things

Yes. 4 subs per rotation is a lot. Badgers have done 3 per rotation in different forms most recent years. That would mean Franklin (and probably Hammill) would have to stay in late in sets if teams were trading points. I could see that happening. Smrek rotating to BR would be interesting! Lol. When you say 3 subs per rotation, you mean 3 pairs of subs? Because except at the end of sets, subs get done in pairs. Civita comes in for Loberg, and then three rotations later. Loberg comes back in for Civita, etc. Sheffield is clearly OK with six, or three pairs, even though it can get them into 'trouble' near the end of a back-and-forth set; plenty of examples for the last couple years. But because one of the 'regular' subs being made the last couple years has been Izzy subbing in to serve for Dana, going to a 6-2 (or the 5-2 I would prefer) doesn't 'cost' anything more in terms of sub count. Instead of Izzy going in and out paired with Dana, Izzy would be going in and out with, say, Smrek (or directly with MJ). Same sub count, same number available for DS-for-left subbing. "Smrek rotating to BR would be interesting!" - Or Izzy ending up at MB with Dana on the bench. That happened last year vs Michigan State. You are right. I originally thought they were the same then I overthought myself. I was thinking that in a 6-2 the setter rotation accounts for two pairs of subs, and the DS another pair, or six subs. I think I left a SS sub for no particular reason to a 6-2 because that’s what the badgers have been doing, but Ashburn would be one of the setter subs in a 6-2. Six subs for each rotation only gets you to 2.5 full rotations either way. That only gets you to 15 points if the opposing team sides out perfectly. It gets you to 25 if the opposing team sides out at 60%, which is cutting it really close in a lot of matches.

Anyway, I still think Bramschreiber’s chances of playing are pretty much the same in the 5-1 the badgers ended up running last year, or a 6-2. That is to say, pretty good.
Where you might have more DS’s is if Demps doesn’t hit out of the back row, and the badgers revert to their 2019 system with 2 DS’s and Ashburn as SS. That’s the system they beat Baylor with in the National semis. I could also see them doing that with a new setter.

Not sure I can get my head around this. Same, so confused on this. What's confusing? She said she wanted to play in the Big Ten. Fortunately, she also wanted to play "somewhere else/new", and has now become familiar with the great UW coaching staff. But had the USC and UCLA move have happened, say, a year ago, I'm not sure her decision process turns out the same. There would be a lot to say about being able to play in the Big Ten at the same time as playing ten miles from home.

IOW. Had nothing to do with your post per se, other than the expansion.

Anyone else have any problems seeing these twitter links/attachments. I don't see anything unil I click on reply and then it will say "Your tweet will appear here after you post" same. Thanks for the solution. Not sure it is an adequate solution though. Was wondering who the main moderator is to contact about this issue? It isn't only me and it happens whether on mobile or PC. Still wondering whether anyone else has similar issues?

It isn't only me and it happens whether on mobile or PC. Still wondering whether anyone else has similar issues? This doesn't happen to me, so I don't anticipate it. Let me know if there is anything I can do to make it easier to see content. (I imagine you checked things like pop-up blockers and the like).

Top prospects will be at camp - either July 5/6 (today/tomorrow) or July 8/9 (Friday/Saturday) - Might also attend positions & serving camp, which is July 11/12 (Monday/Tuesday of next week). I wouldn't be surprised if there's a Bingo in the next week or two.

Another thing I'm looking for this week is the next chapter in the cluster-drama of season tickets.
The deadline for current ticket-holders to apply was July 1st. So they now have the basic parameters in front of them for demand for the different sections, etc.
When I talked to the head VB ticket guy, he said there would be a round of communication where they ask about 'preferences' - section, row, aisle/middle, etc - before they start to assign actual seat locations. We'll get that this week?

They said we'll find out if we made it into Gold and get the survey mid-July, and then we'll get seat assignments August 8th.
