I was just about to post, lol.
When Florida is on, they can be dangerous. Auguste and Rothe are good middle blockers. We tried to recruit Rothe. Byrd is talented but uneven as an outside hitter. Auguste is terrific as an offensive middle. Madkin is the second outside. A transfer out of Arkansas. Smallish, and up and down, but when she's on she's dangerous. I love Stucky. I think she's one of the best setters in the country. It's a shame her career at Florida has gone the way it has. I'm sure not what she expected. She's celebrating senior night with one year of eligibility left, so that's a pretty good sign she's gone after this season.
I will be surprised and disappointed if we lose to this Florida team. They have talent, but they haven't been consistent all year. Just lost to South Carolina of all teams 3-1, with 15 service errors. Out hit, out dug, out scored the Gamecocks, but in the end out lost to them, too.
There was a vbadrenaline article about changes Elliott has made with the team. I should have posted it here but haven't. I'm interested to see if anything manifests tonight, whether good or bad. I feel like fans take too literally what coaches say to the media in terms of what is going on with the team. I'm interested to see if there are any differences in how the team plays and what is emphasized. Specifically in terms of serving and blocking. Apparently that's what David Hunt was recently put in charge of. Don't know who had those responsibilities before, or what can be done in a week versus a whole off season.
