AVCA Player of the week (Jan 17, 2017) - Micah Ma'a (UCLA)

Quote from jo1105

Thank you for the information. I guess it's what RC Cannes needs right now, a player with huge fighting spirit. Hope to see her ending un Cannes. But i think Mulhouse is Also looking for a MB

http://www.flovolleyball.tv/ar…for-ncaa-volleyball-stars

Taylor Sandbothe -> RC Cannes
Paige Tapp -> Valencianas de Juncos

Player of the year - Sarah Wilhite (Minnesota)

Quote from rbdfabio

Oh ok, I need to check again, because I just set to record and there`s only the second semi-final on ESPN2 ....I will check again...thank uu

on my Tv guide on ESPN there`s still High School Basketball set for tomorrow and no volleyball...and on ESPN2 they have the 2nd semi-final...maybe they will update soon..

I just checked ESPN's website and the semi-finals will be on ESPN. They tweeted about it:

Quote from rbdfabio

Sounds like they wont show the first semi-final on TV, streaming only, which sucks....I dont know why they wont do it, instead they will show a High School Basketball game.

My predictions for tomorrow.

Stanford 3 -1 Minnesota

Nebraska 3 - 0 Texas

both semi-finals and the final are going to be on ESPN (instead of ESPN2)

edit: the final match is still on ESPN2

Quote from rbdfabio

No matter what was going on with her, this is a very childish thing to do. If she could just have asked to be released, Modena would even liked the idea once they dont need her anymore basically. For me sounds like she was just not accepting to be the 2nd/3rd setter.

http://www.nordmeccanicavolley…societa-su-molly-kreklow/

anyway, not trying to defend Kreklow, she's definitely wrong if she didn't notify Modena before she left Italy. I just don't understand why Modena even signed her, Ferretti started playing like in the 3rd round so I guess her injury is not that serious? and what's the point of keeping Kreklow when they are not using her at all?

Quote from Matthias

I remember reading something that her bad last season and losing her spot in NT really troubled her, so maybe it was her who was hesitant to sign any contract I'm sure there were many teams interested in her in summer.

Yes, I think it was more like her own decision that she wanted to skip a season and she actually went back to her college and became the assistant coach of her college team. But now, it seems that modena doesnt really need her so I don't know why they even contacted and signed her? (At least in serie a1 because of the foreigner limit)

imagine if eczacibasi signed Zhu ting instead of Kosheleva...

Did anyone actually buy the sportube package? That's the only way to watch the matches (except those on Rai) right? and are the matches available on demand?

Quote from rbdfabio

Yeah that is what I meant. Volero is way too strong compared with the other teams, that`s why they don`t need ZInkovic and Fabiola.

Krista Vansant ( American OH) that played for Volero, gave a interview where she said the Swiss league level is a lot worst than NCAA, and that the Champions League is only a bit better than NCAA. ANd only the really TOP teams are really good.

Poor girl, I dont know how she knows the level of CL once she barely got the chance to play.. oloolol

I think she was just pissed because she did not get offers from big clubs and did not make to the NT in 2016.

Now she works for the University of WA with the volleyball team, it says she is a assistant, but on her Linkedin profile she says one of her duties is to update the team`s facebook profile ololololo

Honestly would you stop talking shit about all the american players? I have seen numerous times that you have some negative things to say about the american players and you still have the star-spangled volleyball as your avatar it just makes me so angry like you don't even like team usa you literally hate all the players

Quote from TimHH

Once again we will have some new US guys entering Bundesliga. Trying to exploit the know-how of this forum, i would be happy if some guys (SHAME, brahmin, elvis and others..) who are familiar with NCAA Volleyball could give their expertise on players listed below. Of course i am most interested in my Lüneburg guys .

Lüneburg
Eric Fitterer (opposite)
Michael Brinkley (libero)
Cody Kessel (OH)

Herrsching
Matt Tarantino (opposite)

Netzhoppers
Taylor Hammond (setter)

I have to admit that I didn’t watch a lot of NCAA matches so I don’t have too much to share…
I expect Brinkley to have a very good season though. I think he’s a good passer + plays good defense (probably the next Erik Shoji?)
For the other 4 players, I don’t have much knowledge but will keep an eye on them this season!

I also have a question for you! Since you’re a Luneburg fan, I guess you watch quite a lot of their matches, do you think Kevorken’s good enough for the international level? I watched a few Luneburg matches and I think he’s a decent blocker but I am kinda confused he’s not given a chance in the NT?

Quote from saishuu

Max Holt not getting a nod is just odd.

Holt is statistically the #2 best blocker, I think he's "sacrificed" because they want to make sure each team have at least one individual award so the 2nd spot goes to Birarelli (who also has a very good tourney, so I am good with that)

They can give the MVP to Serigo for whatever reason they want but Erik Shoji is robbed for the best libero award

this final match is kinda... boring? and I feel so bad for Murilo - him being one of the greatest brazilian volleyball players but not able to win a gold medal

Russia 1 - 3 USA
Brazil 2 - 3 Italy

USA 3 - 1 Netherlands
China 3 - 2 Serbia

Italy 1 - 3 USA
