Potential Hall of Fame Inductees

  • Ok, let's be objective here. Let's not put players here just because they are our favorite but because they are worthy.


    For OH and OPP, I think Sokolova and Gamova have big possibilities to be future Hall of Fame-ers and I can say this without being biased. Russia owe most of their accomplishments to these two. They are just phenomenal and exceptional players in their respective positions. The young players who will replace them will certainly have big shoes to fill in.


    Kun Feng and Fofão are the best candidates for Setters. I think the setters were the major factor to the success of the gold medallists in the past 2 olympics and to me, Fofão was the real MVP in 2008 Beijing Olympics. Lo Bianco is not far behind though. She took Italy's gameplay to soaring heights.


    I have yet to name a Middle Blocker and a Libero though. Some names come to mind but I'm still having second thoughts. Any idea from you guys? It would be interesting to know your thoughts on this :)

  • for middle blockers i have victoria ravva in mind :dance6:

  • as setter Fofao or Feng (or even Takeshita)


    as OH Sokolova for sure!!


    as MB and Libero i dont know..

  • Setters - Fofao, Kun Feng
    MBs - Gioli, Ravva
    OHs - Sokolova, Estes, Logan Tom
    OPPs - Aguero, Gamova
    Liberos - Cardullo, Sano, Sykora

  • Leo yes.....Costagrande, not even close.

  • +1


    Great list by Emil. I would like too add Yoshie Takeshita among the setters too, and if Logan Tom should be in, why not Piccinini?


    Piccinini would deserve to be in the list In my opinion.

  • you're right maybe it is too early now...I anticipated too much maybe! ^^


    but you know, it's not impossible. Specially if she can still play well in the coming years. :)
