We've gone from no Jurevicius legacies to two in a very short time.

I was at the game at Pitt but she is a super strong defender, maybe better than Grimes, but Grimes definitely has a pretty big leg up on serve receive for now. Who knows what 4 months will change but I would be pretty surprised if Grimes ended up not being the libero, but I also thought the same thing this past season about Billinovic vs Grimes and Grimes ended up winning it🤷♀️ That’s saying something because Grimes is very good and super underrated IMO. She could be a top 10 Lib going into next season, just needs to make better second contacts Psu will get stonger as season goes on. They have a lot of new talented players that have to gel. They have a lot of young talent though

They have a lot of young talent though They have been playing together all spring. What newcomer that isn't there already do you think is coming in and replacing anyone? No need to "gel", the team you saw that last two weekends is who will be playing in the fall.

I hear a lot of hype for Penn State. They responded well a year ago, but will they be better in 2024? Is a freshmen RS better than a 5th year? Is a seldom-used transfer middle better than a three-year starter? Is a freshman setter better than a 5th year who won B1G SOY?

Two exhibition matches are not equivalent of a real schedule and how the girls will respond in many different situations.

Sort of interesting… she was a past all-B1G player and she portals out of a top 5 B1G team to go to a losing program in the Costal Athletic Conference. I guess you could say that if they used the Iowa coaches “altered system” she’s going to a team that almost won a game from Arkansas in 2023. Well , that’s interesting… 🏐

ICYMI - Allie posted an Instagram Story that there's nothing to speculate about her transferring:
"Pple love to speculate on forums online about players decisions even tho they have never lived a day in the life of a D1 athlete... cheers to building up a great program and getting the beach experience that i have always wanted:) Go Cougs and We Are always"

Don’t read the online forums. She certainly doesn’t have to defend her decision, but to indicate she’s upset with speculation is a choice.
