October 19Oct 19 Florida has all kinds of issues, but they're a talented team overall. Two good to great middles in Auguste and Rothe. One of the best setters in college volleyball in Stucky. Two good but journeymen for a reason outside hitters in Byrd and Madkin. A serviceable at best right side in Serbian Vidacic. For me their biggest issue is this insistence on playing Hutson in the front row for 3 rotations. Florida consistently gets outscored with her up there. Kentucky went on an 8-0 run in the first set, and blew the 4th set open from a 17-17 tie. Theiss is the worst kind of play not to lose head coach. He doesn't put their most aggressive server on the service line for the 5th set because he's scared she's going to hit an error. Meanwhile they get demolished 15-6. He puts Hutson on the front row for her "defense." Dude, you have no out of system options other than the left pin. And now you have a substandard attacker over there. What are you thinking? And he does this regularly. Byrd and Madkin have issues, but they're legitimate attackers who can go get you points. All I know is that I hope he please please please puts Hutson in the front row as much as possible when they play us. Also, Kentucky is great, but they're very pin dependent with Deleye and Hudson. They have a freshman setter in Katy, Texas native Kassie O'Brien. They've got that 6'6 tree in the middle in Carr that leads the SEC in blocks. The Opposite hasn't been a productive position for them all season long. I like their floor defense, but I like ours better.
