would yall say this is the final lineup from here on out? and just switching Bergmark/Caffey depending on the game and/or who is struggling I think so; but, the same applies if Madi is struggling (bring in Molly). But, what happens when Parra is struggling at OH? During the set, I guess we can only bring in Devin. At the start of a new set, more options as for as switching the left/right pin hitters. if Parra needs subbed out in the middle of a set, I would hope that Devin goes in but we keep Skinner 6 rotations for the extra offense until we can make the true adjustment of Skinner on the left and Phillips on the right that would inevitably happen in between sets. |

The solution is obvious. Just don't have Parra struggle ever. Genius! |

Genius! great idea!!! obviously the rest of conference just continue to work with her on tooling (maybe we should call up Amy Neal to give her some tips 😉) but on a serious note I think if she can get just a little bit better at that we saw it once tonight I think we’ll be in a great spot |

Genius! but seriously she avoids the block so well (wish she would actually use it more sometimes!) that I’m not sure if she’ll ever struggle too, too hard numbers wise. I could see a lack of terminality (a made up word) being the only real “struggle” that she’d need to be subbed out. But even then, would Devin offer more in the middle of a set? I’m not so sure |

I like Baby Spice! That's a good one! A) Halter does kind of look like Baby Spice B) Her name is already Emma C) She knows what you want, what you really really want (digs!) |

I’m not so sure Come on now. I'm glad that Parra is doing so well. But, she didn't play against elite Opposites like Emily Londot and Kendall Kipp. Not sure who the elite Opposites are in the Big 12, but that's when we'll see a bit more of Parra being challenged. From a blocking perspective, that's where I think Parra could get abused depending on the matchups. That's when I think the sub would have to be Devin; and, isn't that why she's been subbed in late the last couple of matches (not tonight)? Solely for blocking? When was the last season Texas subbed in one OH for another OH simply for blocking (late in a match)? |

When was the last season Texas subbed in one OH for another OH simply for blocking (late in a match)? Oh I don't doubt she'd put up much lower efficiency numbers against elite opps like those you named, but I'm just saying Parra is so block-averse (always has been) that she probably won't be hitting negative or anything like that. That's kinda what I meant by struggling. Her thing is though if you do have a solid, big double block against her, your libero can just camp sharp and she'll end up hitting near-zero. I'm just not sure Devin offers much more offensively right now, but I agree her blocking would be better. I don't mind subbing them liberally towards the end of sets if an opposite is dominating her, or especially when we're in rotation 1. |

If we are in a PINCH I’d like to refer you all to the times Molly has hit from the left and delivered the side out. I’m just saying. We’ve got YBG.0. I’m not sweating much. |

I think that if we can get better at giving Saige a 3 point pass and we can speed up the offensive just a little bit that'll help Parra a little more. Honestly I am not so concerned with the amount of kills she gets, but rather if she swings and can get the defense scrambling that's good enough for me. Granted I am rooting for her to get better at tooling the block. |

Found it exciting that they were actively involving Bergmark in the middle attack. Where has that been all this time!?
From the box score Bergmark had 7 kills. I distinctly remember one slide attack that was successful (catch me if I'm wrong here) which means she had 6 kills up the middle?
Again, now you're doing this JE/SKT?
