I don't recall ever seeing it with a setter on the right. But TCU was so outside heavy it was a really smart idea to have Emily on the right to block.

She is a starter. She is in the main starting rotation. Just because she doesn't "start" when the official 6 go out there. Emily is a 1st stringer
Yep. She is a starter. To deny that is just stupid.
Pull the stats and prove me wrong.
Key rotation player = yes
Starter = no
You are claiming an idiotic position. She plays more than others. She is a starter. You don't understand. Vb. The 6 in the court at first tip are not starters.

You are just trying to blame me for your lazy use of language.
And for sure call Jaime and have him adjust the game stats for which for some reason they actually record who the starters are as something that is tracked every match during the season.
plays a lot = true
important player = true
key rotation player = true
starter = false
My only purpose is wanting a fair comparison for her when this statement was made "there is only one other outside hitter in the SEC hitting less than .200 that starts." Make the comparison to people around the league in her role. That's all I'm asking.
And for the record, from 12thman.com:
Starts:
Waak 29
Cos-Okpalla 29
Perkins 29
Lednicky 28
Applegate 27
Stowers 26
Hellmuth 2
Humphrey 2
Fitch 1
Morris 1
If the argument was that Underwood is a starter, you wouldn't have heard a peep out of me.

I was at the game. Hellmuth was ok at the net, but her serve receive was bad and kept us out of system all night in those rotations. I thought it was a tough night for her.
TCU is good. Fun team to watch and this was a great match to be at!!
Proud of Jamie and this team!!!! Sweet 16!!

You are so wrong, it's not even funny. I've coached college volleyball and national club teams. What's your volleyball knowledge to tell me I'm wrong?

lol. You are so right. You should go tell coach Morrison your thoughts and opinions. Would love to see the reactions you get

She isn't a starter. Unless we change the rotation position to have a decent matchup
Applegate tends to be the starter.
When we announce the starters I don't see or Hear Hellmuth.
She is however the second outside hitter.
But a better way to phrase would be all of the outside hitters she ranks X with significant amount of swings
I know what everyone is saying and this whole argument is just wording. Move on from the wording and talk about the actual stats
Quote:
Hellmuth is not a 6 rotation player so when Stowers starts in the front row at the start of a match, Hellmuth doesn't "start". She is still the OH that subs in when the rotation gets the other OH to the front row.

Rewatching the match today instead of in person. Helmeuth actually played pretty well the first two sets.
bwhitmarsh said:
In set 4, she actually returned the ball ok, but we couldn't get the offense going in that rotation with 1 at middle and9 at the opposite. Switching to Fitch was a good move but Helmuth was better than I thought in person. Anyhow, wanted to give Emily her props…she held her own and we will need her moving forward. Go Ags!
