Seems like a trailer trash poll, I hope the coach puts it up on the locker room wall to use as motivation. I think we will be pretty good.

The season is upon us, I look forward to enjoying watching the ladies play.

It will be an interesting year. They lost a lot in that last senior class, but the young players looked pretty talented in the scrimmage on Saturday. Should be a fun ride! I'm personally not expecting a dominant, MAC title caliber year, but I don't think it would be impossible if the young players play well.

Agree this will be a very interesting season for OHIO. Some don’t believe they’ll do much this season with all their player losses and with the MAC as strong and deep as it has ever been. Volleytalk has a thread on the MAC from people who follow this a lot more closely than I do, and some ‘experts’ claim OHIO won’t be in the top 8, (that’s how good the MAC has become), but others feel they’ll be contenders for the championship. On a given night, at least 12 teams are capable of winning. Miami (picked 1st in East) and Kent are very strong and the West may be even stronger.

Ohio has huge holes to fill losing 4 ALL-MAC players: the POY setter and libero are biggest holes to fill. But they have all 3 pin hitters back plus a 6’4” part-time starting MB, 2 redshirts, including a medical redshirt looking to play, and 5! frosh coming with credentials. PrepVBall cited 4 strong recruiting classes in the MAC, with WMU 1st, and also listing Ohio, Ball, and BG. A few of our recruits were quite impressive in the Green-White game and some will be playing I’m sure.

Big weekend with 2 PrepVBall top 50 teams in town. We play Friday night against No. 26 Western Kentucky, and Sat. eve against No. 47 Villanova, with a morning Sat. game against Fla. Gulf Coast.

Go OHIO

This is the year for Ali Lake to have a break out year, if she is not lost in the hype of the new group. She had a great end of the season,and at BYU.

Early returns this year are ROUGH. How bad are we? Can we compete in the MAC?? Don't follow VB too closely but it's been unfortunate to see the results thus far this season.

We're not bad at all. Remember we have 7 players in their first year and a bunch of them had to play right out of the gate due to some injuries. Our OOC schedule included 9 top 100 teams, some of them with lots of experience, so even if we had more talent then some of them, it doesn't necessarily translate to a win when you have a team still learning to play together. There were a couple sets where we had 24 points to their 21/ 20, and lost. That should not happen. A couple losses could have been wins. But I'd much rather play decent teams as it will pay off in the long run. You don't gain much by beating teams at the 150-200+ level. The team is growing, improving each week and should be competitive in conference if they continue to develop.

Go OHIO!

Right. We lost three MAC first teamers and a total of four starters. This is a very young team that will gel.

Great way to go into the MAC. We are at Home and the two teams are not that good.
