Noah Hartsock needs to____________

[old_gregg]

hair comes from the mother's side

and since she's a volleyball player, they're going to be covered in hair.

Cute libero on the volleyball team.

There are liberals at BYU?

Photoshop removed the box he was kneeling on...

So their kids will have some lift and no hair?

Looks like she's a defensive specialist... Does that mean she doesn't play near the net? I was hoping she was a hitter.

also, I just learned that libero = defensive specialist.

OK, libero is a backrow only player in volleyball. Noah's wife only plays back row. That doesn't mean she isn't tall or athletic. I haven't seen her. BYU's best libero ever (on the 2001 National Championship team) also was an all-American at outside hitter (2004 National Championship team) and had good size and athleticism. So, libero doesn't mean she is short, although it is likely she isn't 6' or taller.

According to her byucougars.com profile, she's 5'6". So lets hope she's got hops.

libero does not equal defensive specialist. No reason to be ashamed. Libero is called that because the position doesn't count against your substitution limits (or something like that). They are limited to the back row (even their setting in front of the 3 meter line is limited) but they can serve (which a defensive specialist traditionally couldn't. I would say a libero is a passing specialist not a defensive specialist.

That is unique to marry a Mormon woman that only wants to play the back row. The times..they are a changin!

especially a woman that prefers to go after balls from her knees!

Volleyball girls are great. They even come with kneepads.

Next year, I"d like to see Hartsock develop a little baby hook. He's got those long arms and is coordinated enough to add that to his aresenal. I think he'll have an exceptional year if he can learn to play with his back to the bucket a bit.

He has a baby hook. He lacks lift to get it off amongst the big boys so he has modified his game to focus on his strengths. I don't think we need him as a post player on offense next year. I think he needs to add a controlled dribble drive to his arsenal.

Is that based on an assumption that Davies will be back? Or do you see someone knew helping out there?

That kind of had me confused since I occasionally follow NCAA Div I Women's volleyball and thought somehow BYU had won a couple of titles ('01 & '04) that I wasn't aware of in Women's volleyball. And that a female (not male) athlete made the transition from backline to be a great outside hitter (which would be unusual for a female but possible I suppose). Not sure if that argument works as well for men but I don't follow Men's volleyball.

In case others got confused. A male volleyball player must have been referenced since BYU won it's NCAA titles in 2001 and 2004 in Men's Volleyball. Stanford won Women's volleyball titles in both 2001 and 2004.

Davies will be back.
