I'd like to know the passing percentage difference as a team compared to when Hammil and Izzy were respectively in there.
There are other factors to consider We are not looking at the rotation Baylor was in when analyzing Hammill/Izzy stats.
Backrow had Gregorski for when she served so there were outliers.
Franklin is more terminal than Julia and can hit better OOS. For Izzy to have an extra rotation with Franklin explains a bit of the difference.
Also Franklin led the team in digs with 10. While Gülce only eight over 4 sets?? That number seems low.

And without checking, I don't think UW scored on any of her serves. Figuring percentages would take 'scoring' the video, which obviously we can't do. No doubt the coaches do that regularly, and will have done so for Saturday's match.

As has been noted in similar discussions about other sports, +- is a statistic that you can't lean too much on. That being said, it contains some information and if Izzy's +- is consistently better (I think she looks better at this point in the season) then it supports her being #1 if/when we switch to a 5-1. Obviously, if we stick with a 6-2 then the point is nearly moot - except for in long sets.
At this point, it feels like who the top hitters are is much more clear, with Franklin, Orzol, Hart, Robinson, Smrek the clear top five. (not a surprise, but reinforced by the first two games)

FWIW, scores per set by setter: when Izzy was on the floor: 13-11, 15-13, 15-14, 11-10, 8-6 when MJ was on the floor: 12-10, 7-12, 9-12, 14-11, 4-9 Totals: Izzy 62-54, MJ 46-54 I observed on Friday the team played cleaner ball with Izzy on the court. I

One thing that seems clear, the badgers are doing better using the set one lineup, than the lineups in the other sets. They are hitting 0.409 in set 1, and only 0.245 in the other sets. They only once came close to that 0.409 mark in another set, hitting 0.382 in the 4th set against Baylor. It may be down to adjustments made by the other team, but the squad just looked notably sloppier each time they switched lineups after the second set.
They clearly wanted to use Smrek and the right side more in the Baylor match. Compared to the TCU match they went to Orzol and Franklin only 52% of the time, instead of 58% of the time. Way more than anyone else. Unfortunately, 11 errors is a lot for one hitter. Would like to know what is going on there. Connection issues? Or is she more comfortable hitting from the middle than the right pin?
Still too early to make a lot of judgements.

She’s not nearly as effective without the threat of a middle or back row attack to pull a blocker.

She’s not nearly as effective without the threat of a middle or back row attack to pull a blocker. It was hard for me to see anything on that feed. I do remember her hitting straight over the block in the middle during the final four. I can’t tell if they are having her stay on the right pin, or letting her hit in the middle with the slide behind. They haven’t been using the middles much, and that slide barely at all, it feels like.

Sheffield has more work to do than most expected. It’s exactly what I expected. I had us losing 2-3 matches in preseason. Necessary if you are going to play decent teams while sorting through the lineup options, a completely new formation, and break-in/evaluate two new setters. Doesn’t help that Shanel can’t play and Hart is still working her way back.

Not to knock Gregorski - she went to my high school - but if Boyer's available, maybe she's the serving sub for those three or four occasions, and a point here or a point there...

Would be interesting to see Boyer in there as well.

She’s not nearly as effective without the threat of a middle or back row attack to pull a blocker. I think Smrek needs to stay in the Middle... Hitting those 1 and half's (eventually quick drift 3's) ... she's merely unstoppable in that capacity... With 7'2 wingspan, she will touching the ball first in most instances. She creates so many gaps for her fellow teammates as well. Unfortunately Smrek has cement feet and will never be as dynamic like Dana.. Let's not forget a former All American on the Right (Robinson) is still a current teammate.. some come on Sheffield exploit those two positions! 5-1 is your only chance to make this a late contender.

I don’t know about her lateral movement (I have found her a bit wanting as a blocker in the middle.), but Smrek has a substantially greater vertical than Dana, so “cement feet” seems a bit strong. Lol.

I agree. Let's replace Rettke with Smrek, Loberg with Franklin, Robinson on the right, Hart/CC in the middle, DS along with Demps in the back.

If you have cement feet, as you declare, how would you run the slide as a middle?
And yes, she was a dancer. Again, let's be patient. She'll figure it out how to play without the Rettke distraction. Robinson struggled at first too last year.
