Hi all, newbie here, with some questions regarding this season of Big 10 volleyball.
Is Ohio State for real at all? I mean, Stevens and Main are good, of course, but where do you see them ranking, and do they have what it takes to compete with UMinn, PSU, Wisc, or even Purdue??
Wasn't Malama Peniata of UMinn named Marci last year? Or is that a different girl? And why is she taking swings? Is she really being used as an OH? I'm just wondering, not trying to slam Hebert or anything. And why hasn't Florian been used more?
How many years has Leah Wischmeier already been at Purdue? Those Shondellettes are coming on huge this year, and I think they could honest come in around third, is that crazy to think??

Malama is Marci. She's playing OH because she's really been good out there.
Florian was held out of matches because of her late start with the team. Staff thought it only fair.

Malama Peniata? It's like Jamie Kamana'o. I don't know where the "Jamie" came from cuz she's just Kanoe to me.
Also, whenever anyone uses the word "query" (or its plural), I can't help but chuckle (...even when I use it). There was this dorky girl at law school. Everybody hated her because she was so annoying in class. I thought she was cute, even with the glasses on, kinda like Jan Smithers of WKRP in Cincinnati. Anyway, one day in Civil Procedure, she got up and asked, "Query: What about Rule 11?" And the whole class burst into laughter. Me included. I felt bad for her but I couldn't help it because nobody, not even lawyers and law students, use the word "query" in real life and if you've ever heard it in real life, it is just absolutely frikkin' HILARIOUS!

I mean, Stevens and Main are good, of course, but where do you see them ranking, and do they have what it takes to compete with UMinn, PSU, Wisc, or even Purdue?? Welcome, Hoo. I've seen OSU a bunch so far this season, and I'm still addled. Stevens and Meyer are pretty cool to watch, and w/ Main, they're basically the only consistency on the team. Miller refuses to stop hitting right into blocks; Britenriker has trouble getting into the rhythm of the game (nice #s v. BYU though). I'm not sure if there is a true L... every time, I've seen someone new in the uniform. Kastein isn't a backrow beast, but she DOES have Elite Eight experience... btw, Main is into all-out kills now.. less setter dumps. I dunno... they looked really horrible against NU... and in G3 against Pitt. Gs1&2 against Pitt were great. I didn't see the BYU match; I was at the football game and was too beat to drive 45 min north. Then at times, they play like a well-oiled machine. Purdue should be a test, as they're supposed to be very good. You should drive over! It's only $5. And with school starting this week, the band is back. |

How many years has Leah Wischmeier already been at Purdue? This is Leah's 5th year overall, her last year. She graduates in December. You should know that Leah always wanted to go to IU, but they didn't want her (it's true). Just another reason Katie should be canned. I be thinking that they would have had a lot better team the last couple of years with Archibald AND Wischmeier (in addition to Big Red). |
