Jonnie is a great player with a head on her shoulders, Just ask the coaches who voted her 1st team all B1G, never mind fans on volleytalk. Who by the way hate PSU.

Credibility, meet exit. Bye now. I didn’t say she wasn’t good but are you gonna seriously tell me people are scared of her? Everyone has their own opinions but I think most would worry about shutting down middles and making outsides beat you there. Should a poll be conducted on volleytalk and see what people think. Lol. Hey prove me wrong. I’m happy to admit it. Just saying. All good Jonni Parker is a unanimous 1st Team All Big 10 in 2019. She was the Big 10 Freshman of the Year in 2018. That's way beyond "good." I don't know your standard for teams being "scared" of a player. I doubt good teams are "scared" of any player. But they respect really excellent players like Jonni Parker. If your standard is "Parker isn't as good as Katherine Plummer" or "Parker isn't as good as Blair Brown" or "Parker isn't as good as Megan Hodge," well, you're probably right. But she is an excellent player, without whom Penn State wouldn't have begun to approach the season they had this year. If you want to call that being just "good," OK, that's your right.

Your gonna get that many when u don’t have another outside really. You have a converted middle and then what. But fine. I’ll concede. Cause this isn’t about any player personally. It’s more to my opinion that if I’m a better team I’m limiting the middles and letting outsides beat me.

Hey fair enough. Maybe I am comparing her to the best. Those players are on Entirely different level

Those players are on Entirely different level And those players all have/had a boatload of other super talented pin hitters helping out on the front row. So, it's really apples-to-oranges comparison.

Hey I had my focus on one thing and one thing only and wasn’t even on the boards that much. But someone told me to forget about it for now and just focus on what I do on boards especially with Nebraska and wisky. I wanted to retire but certain people edged me back. I blame them. I was perfectly content pm people instead of responding on boards 😜

So it's gonna be Cincy...they have Jordan Thompson and nothing to lose. I see us as underdogs, whether we are or not.

This is what happens when u have no consistant outsides. Been saying it all year No, this is what happens when the team doesn't play well. RR said they played hard, but just didn't have it. The first game was more a case of the team not playing well and Towson playing really well. PSU still just have some off nights. Now granted, if they had another good OH, it probably wouldn't happen as much. But, remember the lost week-end of 2010 when PSU lost to Indiana and Purdue. That was with Blair Brown and Arielle Wilson & Scott, Deja and Katie Slay.

And I was with you until you started comparing to 2010 team to 2019 team. That is massive reach. You should have stopped before that.

Whatever Maybe too cryptic.
