So, if in fact the 5-1 is the plan. Are people leaning A. Booth/CC middle Smrek opposite Robinson depth B. Booth/Robinson middle Smrek opposite CC depth I just don't see a world where Smrek/Booth don't play so I didn't include those as options. Seems probably like a question of do you prefer Robinson's offense or CC's block close obviously still early to know, but if you had to guess/have a preference I'm hoping based on these athlete designed shirts, we're looking at Crawford/Booth for longer than November badgerandboujee.com/collections/wisconsin-block-party

In regards to some of the reaction to CC's comment on the setting... Lighten up Francis...

Sorry if already covered, but did TSC make a case for herself at the exhibition to push Orzol for the other OH spot?

Robinson’s offense is too good.

Minus raw athleticism, I think Orzol is a step above TSC in most areas unless Orzol has regressed. Passing and floor defense are easy wins for Orzol. She sets up a block really well, is a tough server, and got a lot of reps with OOS setting with her libero year. The only place I see TSC with a leg up is in attacking. Even then, I think when she was hitting, Orzol was one of the best in the country at recycling balls off the block. And who knows what Orzol's offense could look like with Fuerbringer dishing. Personal preference with the scorers we already have, is for Orzol to hold down the fort with all of the other things she does really well. But I am not mad if TSC has to take the L2 role for a while.

But I am not mad if TSC has to take the L2 role for a while. I agree with you completely. More than that, I think Sheffield has demonstrated that he thinks it’s really important to have Orzol on the court, in whatever position they need from her. I think she’s such an asset in so many ways. I figure we’ll see the occasional sub with TSC if she isn’t producing, but assuming she’s healthy, that OH spot should be hers.

Tough to say given that Oz didn't play, but I think it's fair to say that after she worked out the first set jitters, TSC played very well relative to the expectations appropriate for a freshman OH. I think she's got a decent chance of seeing court time this year.

But I am not mad if TSC has to take the L2 role for a while. Orzol does too many things for the team. If she's healthy, she's on the court at OH. TSC still has a lot to learn about the game at this level, but it looks like she's not as green as I feared she might be after I saw her play for Canada. That's encouraging. I think her ceiling is very high. One place she could play a role if her defense holds up is as a BR RS sub option for Anna, a la Demps. She has the athleticism to hit out of the BR. We'd need to really solidify our passing from the L before that happens, but it would help that one rotation when Julia is up front with the M1 and teams are trying to serve Franklin to keep her from hitting out of the BR. TSC was able to get some aces against Bradley, but also had some SEs, so she could add something simply as a SS in that rotation.

Slide through the photos to read an update from Danielle Hart Wow. That was hard to read. But glad she is feeling more optimistic and getting proper care. So happy she will be back in Madison.
