* Bower hater - discount everything (she says) that is accurate because Marn doesn't like the Bowers.
* Florida Sisters don't have anything to do with the Bower sisters nor are there parallels between the craziness @ BYU vb
* You are the only one debating the 2 yr topic of a scholarship for Hiapo. There is no proof that Hiapo was offered a 2 yr by BYU or that UofA offered 4 yrs right off the bat. No one is debating the rockstar Hiapo issue except you.
* Only you are debating how good Choboy and Lexie are at Nebraska. They weren't a topic until you again, try to deflect the issues. BYU doesn't have any OH's transitioning to DS to get playing time, another deflection. At BYU, more DS's are better than fewer because they need more numbers competing to actually find decent passers. Neb doesn't! Deflections at work again.
* Damuni would make a great DS .... just like Whitney Bower would have. Damuni is a better over all athlete. But, I am glad you brought up A Bower because she wouldn't make a good DS ..... which should tell you and Heather that Alex is at a disadvantage from the get go for playing time at setter.

Read my other post about the DS/L’s count on the top ten programs. Their count is mainly about 3-4. Your suggestion that we need more than 4 is ridiculous. You obviously don't know how to manage a program. The hate you have for the Bowers is clouding your judgment. |

Wow, Marn's drama novels keep getting longer and longer. Grab your popcorn everyone as Marn’s baloney has been exposed and he's on a rampage!
*Reed is the GOAT! The man, the myth, the legend! His record speaks for itself. Players and parents (except Marn) love him.
* Everyone but Marn knows where to go in UT to recruit top players or any player for that matter– Club V.
Be aware of Marn’s posts; they’re full of lies and garbage!

Be aware of Marn’s posts; they’re full of lies and garbage! The above has been brought to you by Reed Carlson, the biggest self-hyper in his own club! Let's watch and see how the season pans out for his elite L, Miller. If she can't get the L jersey she will undoubtedly be the first DS into the match. We will also not see the Johnson girl, because she is slow and damaged goods according to Reed. Let's all watch and see if Carlson knows what he is talking about while keeping an eye on his top club teams to see if any of them can crack the top 10 at nationals this year. Pass the popcorn please! |

You obviously don't know how to manage a program. The hate you have for the Bowers is clouding your judgment. Hiapo wasn't offered a scholly by BYU out of HS! That is why she went to UofA. I think your credibility just sank to the level it belongs. Mentioning Choboy and Lexie as comparable to the BYU passers is well ..... about par for the course for you. If Neb has these 2 girls then BYU needs to invite 4 -5 girls to be on their roster to possibly find just 2 passers who are the same quality as Neb. So, yes, more isn't better in Neb's case but less is better! How many great passers have been on the the GBR roster in the last 8 years? How many on BYU's roster? No better evidence needed on your credibility than what you just wrote about this situation. Neb simply has better talent evaluation than you have or BYU has in the passing dept. Mia Lee was played out of position at your club! You would have won the national championship if you had played her at Opp and not the DS at Oklahoma or Damuni. It's laughable. Mia Lee is played out of her best position at BYU also. Prior is the better MB. Prior isn't slower in foot speed and blocking height than Mia. They should both be on the court, just reversed! Truth |

Marn,
If anyone’s credibility is lost in this forum, it is yours! And it has been lost for a long time.
Your nonsense posts are a disgrace to this forum. They are full of lies that you can’t keep track of.
Your posts ought to be boycotted; they don’t even deserve to be quoted.

Nice 3rd place for your top 18 in SLC - truth? Any every other set substituting going on trying to get more playing time for your "full" roster of too many girls - truth? Revenue problems? Please boycott my posts, it will save your ego - truth. How did your recommendation work out for Wisc on your prime 6 rotation OH hitter? Asking for a few people with no knowledge of vb ....

AZVB- well you just took over enemy #1 on the bbg95 (and few others list)! Thank you for taking my place! Much appreciated. These bullet points of yours are exactly what I have used more words to say (than you did) over the years. I made the mistake of making these points while the season was going or before certain seasons started and had the wrath of bbg95 on me. Everything you said above is true. But when you point them out (for example Prior should be a MB) and Little and Stowell should be playing OH2 instead of Eden (even saying Eden will not be elite or even average in her college career before she ever set foot on campus) ..... and heaven forbid that you suggest that W Bower wasn't the best setter for the program over Meyer (not even close) then you start the peanut gallery saying you work in the BYU vb office, or your kid got shafted by Heather, or you just have an ax to grind with the Bowers, or you are the dad of a new transfer to BYU etc. It is crazy what they come up with to deflect from the issues that hamper the BYU program. There is more to Jonny leaving than meets the eye. Maybe one to many things were said and ignored about talent evaluation and social politics involving people in the program. It doesn't really matter to me, but the on court decisions are perplexing and the first sign that I saw that Heather is susceptible to personal likes and dislikes influencing her coaching decisions was ..... before I say this .... I am not the mom or dad of the Lewis girl .... but Lewis should have played at OH and allowed to play instead of inserting Madi Rob into the final 4. It could and probably would have lead to a different result. For a variety of reasons Heather is not able to put certain players on the floor .... even when they should be. That one was a total political decision! Damuni is the latest victim of Heather knowing that she has a potential problem with the Bower family so she absolutely wastes Damuni's eligibility. All true/accurate points but "we need to shoot the messenger" before she gets us the message ....... AZVB *Pryor in the middle, Mia OPP. - > BYU needs Pryor's huge block as an OPP. Mia has quicker lateral movement than Pryor and is a better offensive threat as a middle. *Stowell and Claire in the battle for OH2. Not Eden. - > No doubt that a healthy Claire will be the OH2. *A 3rd coach. Why didn’t we have one last year? - > Healther, Dave, & Jonny were there last year. *Erin Livingston passing 500 balls before, 500 ball after practice. - > Agreed. Now to MARN's "non-sense". Facts: Jonny left to pursue an entrepreneurial opportunity-- nothing else.. You insinuated the same thing about Penina when she left to attend law school. Damuni was sidelined with an injury for over 6 months. Risks need mitigation. Opinion: Whitney B. was the better setter for the program. She made wonders out of bad passing, played great defense, and was an offensive threat at the net. movb - congrats on a 4th place finish at the NIT. You have some really good athletes on the 18's. One more win and you could have played us! Penina had some different thoughts about setting style than Heather did. I said as much and that was the end of the story. "You insinuated" is your spin ... not mine. Good luck on upping your 17 team's performance and I will see you at some qualifying tourney's! |

BYU announced the official signings of Uluave and Mortensen, and they also added a transfer middle from Saint Mary's, Kjersti Strong. The latter is a nice pickup for middle depth. She led the Gaels with 3.92 points per set on 2.88 k/s (.336 hitting percentage), 1.50 b/s and .21 sa/s. |

She had two great seasons at Snow College before the two years at St. Mary’s, and I’d wondered if BYU had ever been a possibility, especially since she went to high school in the valley. Always nice to see another local HS graduate on the team. |

Her hometown on the Saint Mary's website is listed as being in Pennsylvania, but now that I look at it, I see that she went to Skyridge High School, which is just up the highway in Lehi. |

Kjersti is a nice addition and the odds are that she might start at MB for BYU. Uluave could be a winner on the back row. Better odds with her than many other back row passer recruits of late. Mortensen in my mind isn't a big time performer. |

So what is a BYU projected line up? Good question. I'd have to think, but off the top of my head: OH1: Erin Livingston OH2: Claire Little MB1: Mia Lee MB2: Brielle Kemavor/Kjersti Strong OPP: Kate Prior S: Silina Damuni or Alex Bower L: No idea, really. Same for DS, as both Hiapo and McComber graduated. |
