I’m a fan of Tamas and the Illini, but trust me, Illinois has no chance with Kinney. She is one of ten best recruits in her class. I follow club volleyball and I’m not familiar with the three recruits who have committed. I thank those posters for providing more information!

Like which schools is she considering?

Hmm, think I remember who "voilaballers" roots for and it's becoming clear why they might be interested in a talented outside hitter prospect in 2025... ; )

Who wouldn't want a talented OH like Kinney? Totally! Would be a great way to kick off the Keegan Cook era. *Looks like the McKenna Wucherer and Taylor Landfair photos I included above didn’t appear on this other browser- totally undercuts the clever delivery of my post. Dang : )

Thanks! Yeah, we've lucked out that Illinois has landed three good recruits so early. Outside hitter seems like the last position they still hoping to fill. Best wishes to the Gophers on the recruitment trail!

Likewise! I hope we will get some news after the camp that’s happening in first week of July.

Sophi Randall and Taryn both play at Kiaros. This is the same club that Bergen Reiley (Nebraska freshman/ number one setter in class) came out of also. Sophi is in good hands to teach her how to set elite.

Sophi is in good hands to teach her how to set elite. It also should be noted Sophi played up two years during the Club season. She could have played U16 but set for the club's top U18 team.

She looks quick with good hands.

Not mutually exclusive. They play 32 matches this year and go 16-16. 1. New starting setter. D Brown ran a 5-1 for the vast majority of the past four seasons. Brooke Mosher played almost all of last season as not a setter. Started out as DS, moved into OH when Jess Nunge was injured, then played opposite for basically the rest of the season. I don't know enough about setting mechanics and running an offense to compare Mosher and Brown based on the limited reps we've gotten to see, but Brooke is definitely more aggressive at attacking on second contact. She's willing to take legit left-handed rips. but she swings right-handed?

When Brooke plays pin hitter, she swings right-handed but she's got a good left hand rip when she sets. I think she's truly ambidextrous. There were at least a couple times last season where she got lefty kills while playing pin hitter, too.

In addition to being more aggressive as an attacker, based on the limited sample of when she set in the last few matches last year and this summer’s exhibitions, I think Brooke will also be more aggressive in the way she runs the offense. The sets to the pins will be faster and she will run the middle more. Also, she probably ran more 31s in the exhibition match against EIU than Diana ran all last year. I’m looking forward to being entertained in the upcoming season.
