About line-up You can either piss CC off or piss Fuerbringer off. Pick one. /shrug
Disclaimer: I like CC I think she's the cutest gal on the team. That said, go Fuerbringer.
Not applicable. Fuerbringer was told “5-1”. . . but more importantly her dad was promised “5-1” . . . You do understand Charlie Fuerbringer’s dad is not the local postman who got his daughter involved in volleyball to keep his over active daughter occupied, right? This is just amusing. Wisconsin will be in a 5-1 in 2024, and the 1 won’t be a very mediocre ex-Montana setter. But you carry on… 🏐

I personally think you are full of it. And the "Charlie's dad is the men's NT setter coach, let's not dare bench his daughter" is an odious statement. I'm sure Charlie was told she'd have to earn it just like everyone else was told. Then more odiously, you talk down Anderson as "very mediocre" because 'mediocre' isn't good enough, you feel like using the word "very" will prove your point more. It makes you look like you don't know what you are talking about. That being said, you are right about two things (most likely): Wisconsin will be in a 5-1 (I mostly like just talking about the possibilities, but I as well as most people on this board are certainly aware that Charlie is a really good setter) and whether or not CC is cute is not applicable.

That’s cool they’re coaching, but that level of VB was unwatchable. Our women’s squad would sweep the men’s club team, with the men not scoring more than 25 points. 🤣🤣🤣 I mean as coaches, not the players themselves although the players according to folks here, those players are bad and not much coaching can help.

Think what you want. Has nothing to do with being benched, it has everything to do with development as a setter… and not wasting a year running a 6-2 teamed with an inferior setter.
Like I stated, Anderson is “very mediocre”, because that is what the tape says she is…and being “odious” is a curios way to react to an opinion. But you know I’m accurate.
And I’ll end with this, I believe Fuerbringer will be a one and done in Madison… the best setter coach in the country is now in the B1G at USC, and that will tip the scales. So enjoy this year.

So enjoy this year. 🏐 I often laugh/cringe at 'over modification' of words. Like when a sportscaster calls someone a "young freshman". You mean, as opposed to an "appropriately aged freshman"? Aren't pretty much all freshmen "young"? (Kirk Herbstreit, I'm looking at you!) So if a "mediocre setter" would be somewhere in the 45th-to-55th percentile range of setters, a "very mediocre setter" would fall between, say, the 49th and 51st percentiles? Does the "very" really tell us anything we didn't get from "mediocre" (Just bored, and messing with you. No big deal. But don't get me started on "pretty unique"! :-)

Why would Sheffield promise Charlie a 5-1, she still has a lot to prove. I say they start with a 6-2.

If so, you'd realize how out of touch this comment actually is. I don't mean to take anything away from the growth of womens sports, or minimize the exceptional athletes women can be, but there is a reason why the mens net is 7 inches taller than a womens net. You do realize that many of these attacks on a mens net would be OVER most womens block and probably every single Wisconsin mens club player can hit the ball as hard or, more than likely, harder than any of the players on the Wisconsin womens team. The Wisconsin womens team front line is tall, but they literally would have to worry about broken fingers on any given attack. I also find it kind of wild that you think the Wisconsin womens team would be dominant in a matchup when the programs most acute issues have come from poor passing and lackluster backcourt defense, which are two things you'd actually have to excel at to beat a quality mens team of equal age (or just hope that you can serve them off the court).

It's funny...I don't remember Sheffield running a 6-2 with Courtney Thomas and Carlini in 2013 because Carlini couldn't handle being a freshman setter in the Big Ten. 🤔
It's also funny...I don't remember Texas or Nebraska running a 6-2 in 2023 because their highly acclaimed freshmen setters couldn't handle their duties. (And they were handling all the way to the final match of the Division 1 season.)
So, what's with second-guessing a stupendous freshman setter coming in this autumn to take over duties for a team that made the 2023 national semifinal match? 🤨
Go for a walk, get out and get some air, find your balance. And stop the silliness.

If anyone is up, MJ and Joslyn are “coaches” of the men’s club team that is starting the third set of their national championship match! www.youtube.com/live/PE8lsg_H7C0? si=IY2tec0Y_qDY8Gmc I finally got to watch this on YouTube. MJ looks like a future coach to me. Fun to see those two fire up their players in tight situations. 👍🏿

They are suggesting that there may be enough fire power in the middle and RS to justify continuing with the 6-2 IF Charley and Carly are comparable enough to start. That fire power (and frankly, the lack of first touch control) is very unlike the 2013 team. This whole discussion is instigated by concern trolling.

I think they absolutely go 5-1. Carly fits the mold of “older setter who would be fine being a back up for their fifth year to get the big school experience and try to win a title”. Charlie is the best in the class and you foster that even if at first it isn’t ideal (see Texas 2023). I love CC, but losing her isn’t anything major, Devyn will be way more productive offensively and block just as well. CC can be a serving sub and a very capable back up if any RS/middles go down. And honestly there will almost certainly be games one of those 3 are out and she will have to jump in. It sucks for her but she knew what she was getting into when both her and Devyn decided to come back
