Posted where? There's a 26 second video on the twitter page; in the first shot, I see Sheffield talking to Kristy Walker (with Carlini looking out at the players on the floor, BTW). Up in seats behind the bench, there are two people I can't readily identify; one I assume is a player because of the knee pads, and the other no idea. Are you thinking that's Charlie? Because if that's who you're looking at, I'm not seeing a boot, I'm seeing knee pads. Yes I believe it is. On her left she has the knee pad and white shoe on, but on the right is a grey medical boot. Why would someone have a knee pad on one leg and a boot on the other?

Red flag that Anderson is running the offense (with the starters) and that Charlie is no where to be found.
That must be her in the far back, but the hair looks too dark.

Yeah if Anderson is the starter against Marquette we're cooked. Significantly smaller block will make what is an already struggling block worse, and she has not been able to set any of our hitters high enough, especially Smrek and Booth who get balls at like their shoulder levels. Frank will make it work somehow because she's Frank, but even when Charlie was struggling with connecting with the hitters, putting in Anderson has never improved the connections in the brief times we've seen it happened, and she was been practicing with our hitter since the spring. Can Charlie pull a Swindle and set flat-footed?

Ummmm. In the first clip of the new video Wisconsin volleyball just posted, behind Kelly Sheffield is Charlie Fuerbringer sitting down with a boot on her right foot. This would explain why Carly Anderson is running with the starters in the clip Oh boy. Just when we were starting to get healthy. Sending positive vibes to Charlie, let's hope it's nothing/minor.

I’m guessing if it happened recently during the practice If there were an "it" that had just happened, she'd have ice on it, not a boot. Or she'd be off to a trainer's room or off to get x-rays or an MRI etc. It looks to me that she has the same knee pads on both legs, and the right leg is more in the shadows.

It's definitely a boot on the right foot. Can't tell for sure who it is. Don't know why they would have a boot on one but look ready to play with everything else they have on. Hopefully that means it's just a preventative thing. Not going to speculate beyond that.

Looks like a boot to me. This is Kohl Center, and Kelly was commenting in his presser yesterday how wet/slippery the court gets sitting on top of the ice rink. Was a problem at the FL match a couple of years ago. Maybe it's related, who knows.

I would guess there wouldn't have been time for a player to have something happen in warmups, get checked out, put a boot on, and settle into watch from the stands, all before warmups ended.

Marquette should be manageable regardless. Let’s just hope that, if there is an injury, it’s quick to heal.

Even if she has a problem that requires a "precautionary" boot, wearing it at practice with knee pads would make no sense. If she's about to go to the floor, she would need to be warming up the leg, not immobilizing it. And if she had just come off the floor from practicing, she would have ice on it. Knee pads plus a boot just makes no sense.

Damrow was using such a device on her knee on the bench at the Field House during the UW-Milw match; taking it off when she went in to play, then putting it back on when she came out.

It's nice that we are so involved in dissecting PR film of practice to make sure our players are healthy. Indicates a truly committed fandom, if an overly worried one. I doubt Marquette has anyone dissection PR film of badger practice for hints as thoroughly as we do here.

I saw that too. I saw a pin that suggests it might be near Rimrock at a big church there, but that could be a random pin. It's at the Alliant Energy Center. If you approach campus via John Nolen or Rimrock I'd recommend a different route.
