They can practice with the six players who would be on the floor during "rotation 2" - Izzy, Craford, Smrek - against a group who would be off the floor during "rotation 2" but on the floor together during "rotation 5" - MJ, Devyn, Demps. You are essentially practicing both halves of the 6-2 at the same time, albeit without the "A team" lefts. "Rotation 1" vs "rotation 4". "rotation 2" vs "rotation 5", "rotation 3" vs "rotation 6". The normal "A team" lineup during a given set at TCU consisted of two setters, their two right side opposites, two middles and the libero, and two lefts. Nine players total. But having the lefts in with the rotations as it would be in an actual game is ideal. We can no doubt provide the personnel to simulate a 6-2 game with the focus being on the A team so opposing team runs a 5-1. Our B team in the practice game would run a 5-1 with Gabby middle, Hart or Crawford middle, Gregorski OH Shenal Libero, Right Side Wrobel or Demps, and setter is either assistant coach, men's club,etc. Running a 6-2 Hammill, Izzy, Robinson, Crawford or Hart , Smrek, Demps or Wrobel, Franklin, Orzol, and Gutekin. MacDonald, Reed, and Boyer ( if healthy) are practicing serves off to the side. I give up.

You are getting different components of the 6-2 practicing against each other. I am getting the entire process each time through with exactly how it were to occur in the game. I am not saying what I suggest is probable or likely just that I think it would be instructive. Once again different ideas but both with merit.

She's already a boss before her first home game as a Badger. 🤔 Coach Sheffield getting a bit soft? Nice article I agree.

Watching Nebraska - LMU match right now. Huskers are running a 6-2 with Hames and Anni Evans. Both setters putting up safe, hittable balls. Middles hitting for kills in front of the setters. Nebraska is not flashy, but those good connections are very effective and efficient for the Huskers. Nice to have at least one seasoned veteran setter, regardless of the system employed. Just think itz interesting given the Badger experience to start this season. No Orr?!? 😳 This is weird. "We were not thinking about a 6-2 last week."

Someone suggested we wouldn't be very good in a 5-1 with our personnel and our passing woes. No way we are a not very good team in running the 5-1 with our personnel. Boyer and Demps ( and Shanel when available) add a ton to our backrow prowess in a 5-1 they don't really see the backrow in a 6-2. Currently the 6-2 configuration puts alot of pressure on our overall performance as we simply don't have the inclination of putting some of our best defenders back there in the 6-2. Also, how are we practicing the 6-2? To Maximize improvement we should be playing in practice against 2 setters in a 6-2 configuration. Is this assistant coaches with setting experience? Volunteer setter from the men's club team? I didn’t say we wouldn’t be good. I said we wouldn’t be as good as last year, a NC year. In a 5-1, we’d have a hard time winning the B1G, much less an NC. We’d still be pretty good though. We actually have a chance to win the NC with a 6-2. Or we could finish 4th in the B1G.

She’s better, more consistent than Orr right now. They almost won the NC with Hames!

AND Orr is neither of the 2 playing in the 6-2?!?

Of course, 4th in the B1G could put you as high as 6th nationally, conceivably, if the ACC and Pac 12 teams beat each other up a bit in league play.

I'm guessing Orr is still not quite healthy enough to play. Otherwise why not have her on the court?

Otherwise why not have her on the court? that's not what it sounded like from cook in the press conference. when he asked about the setting he talked about the benefits of the 6-2 and that hames and Evans are more comfortable running that system than Orr is.

I told you all in early July WI was in on this Lizzie Andrew. There is a number Youtube video clips out there of her playing beach and indoor and its fantastic tape. No awkwardeness for her height. Shes really athletic and explosive. Man, that would be a huge get for WI. With her and the Poland MB together it would be whoa! WI in 2024 could be looking at a once in a generation type team as far as talent.

Orr was the setter of a 5-1 offense in the first and the third matches, Anni Evans was the setter of a 5-1 offense in the second Friday match.
