    Why is there so much hate on this girl??

  • @alexachristianne
    @alexachristianne Před 5 lety +110

    lmao with all of the hate she’s getting i wonder how many of you actually play volleyball

      @elswade Před 5 lety +8

      al3xa thank you she is actually really good just because she can’t jump very high doesn’t mean a lot

  • @freya4617
    @freya4617 Před 8 lety +100

    correct me if I'm wrong but pretty sure her vertical & hit could improve if she brought her left arm up to (momentum). Powerful touch though.

      you are a 100% right

    • @jadyncarle3176
      @jadyncarle3176 Před 6 lety

      No that is just a guider you don't really need the left arm to hit

    • @7kellynichole
      @7kellynichole Před 6 lety +1

      Spiez Carlili ur left arm weighs you down if u don’t bring it up

    • @DatNguyen-ph2zr

  • @allythorn3749
    @allythorn3749 Před 8 lety +115

    What bothers me is that there only showing her. All those sets and passes could have been bad but we will never know because we never saw where they went...

    • @adinjepsky7110
      @adinjepsky7110 Před 6 lety +1

      if I am right, they don't show where her passes and sets go because that's not what people wanna focus on. That's my theory anyway, but who knows.

  • @lolyourockmysocks

  • @rachelcox3469

    If your game highlight reel includes you hitting straight into a block, falling over, then running into your setter, you can kiss college volleyball goodbye.

  • @TheHonorableGeoff

    Work on that vert.

    • @gabibaca4249
      @gabibaca4249 Před 6 lety

      TheHonorableGeoff yes. I was thinking the same thing. She does not jump that high.

  • @Milica.Samoukovic
    @Milica.Samoukovic Před 8 lety +87

    I'm a setter so it really annoyed me when I saw her not squaring her hips where she was setting. she was crooked and not looking where she was aiming. I'm a lot younger than her but her sets could be gold if she just evened her hips

    • @thedevilsocean5326
      @thedevilsocean5326 Před 8 lety +11

      why would her sets need to be gold? she's a hitter not a setter or a libero

    • @Milica.Samoukovic
      @Milica.Samoukovic Před 8 lety +13

      positions change all the time in volleyball, i've played every single one. Ad even if you don't you never know when you might need that skill in game time. You can always use proper form The Devils Ocean

    • @cynthia310
      @cynthia310 Před 6 lety

      I think it because she’s a hitter she it not that good at setting.

    @ericabrohm2282 Před 5 lety +5

    Her hands break apart when she passes. She doesn’t press over when blocking. Her vertical isn’t very high. These are probably some things she should work on right now. Her swing looks good but her hit could be so much better if she raised her vertical 5-10 inches

  • @7kellynichole

    If she makes it in college, she’s not gonna stand a chance against those blockers, just being honest

  • @only1hannah460
    @only1hannah460 Před 8 lety +16

    When you block the only time you should swing your arm back all the way is when you're in middle. When you're blocking outside you should bend your elbows so that you don't hit the person behind you

  • @snicole604
    @snicole604 Před 8 lety +23

    how high can you jump? because I'm only 5'7 and my hits have a much greater downward slope

    • @bbybeckyy5451
      @bbybeckyy5451 Před 7 lety +3

      Sarah Nicole I normally hit to the corners where it's difficult to pass it. In outside I hit across the ten foot line where the outside hitter is passing. And for middle I hit to the ten foot line or deep.

    • @lanii7535
      @lanii7535 Před 6 lety

      So I'm her height, also a Caucasian female, and my shoulders clear the net. I also hit hard left/right 10 foot line or just in front of middle back

    Oh my gosh she is getting so much hate. I’d die to me her, and yea, maybe she could work on some things, but every single volleyball player out there could to. So stop being so hateful, and not to mention obnoxious. She will probably never see this, but if she does, I hope you know that you are beautiful, independent, and that you should keep going despite what anyone, and I mean ANYONE says.❤️

  • @rainbroanderson9413
    @rainbroanderson9413 Před 7 lety +51

    Horrible lateral movement, poor blocking form when going net left to net right. Her hits are often too close to the top tape and would be easily blocked at a college or top 20 club level.

    • @emilyzhao6879
      @emilyzhao6879 Před 7 lety

      Rainbro Anderson truest for the last one but don't need to criticize you should also give her tips on how to improve

    • @rainbroanderson9413
      @rainbroanderson9413 Před 7 lety

      The tips to improve would be learn to move left to right, learn correct form, and learn how to hit vs. a block.

    I’m 5’3 and the bottoms of my forearms get over the net, either she is lying about her height, or she has no vertical.

  • @aliyahchase6086
    @aliyahchase6086 Před 5 lety +3

  • @bremiesner2856
    @bremiesner2856 Před 5 lety

    Yeah so I’m 2 years late, but it’s kinda sad that her vertical is like 8 inches and she’s a middle. I don’t care that you’re y’all, if your vertical isn’t that good then you have no business being a middle. I’m 5’7” and play middle because when I block the top of my head is above the net. She’s good at hitting angles out of the outside though!

    • @imsohungryyyyy
      @imsohungryyyyy Před 5 lety

      At least u know why im middle . In pri sch i played setter or subset then now in sec i play middle but idk why. Prob cause of my height ( im short but slightly taller than some of my teammates ) i dont think i jump high? Once i was playing in court, the coach gave me a feedback saying that i should shout for the ball because i have the potential but i fear to make mistakes so i let others take the ball unless its really mine. I feel like i really have to improve on my blocking and spiking ;-; i have so much to work on ;-;

  • @manumagick

  • @alicesteman2720
    @alicesteman2720 Před 3 lety

    She will need to work on her vertical. Her hits are alright, but they are right above the net. The 6’0 middle blocker is going to slam that right in her face.

    she doesn’t jump that high, her blocks were terrible 🤭 she doesn’t square her hips that well when setting, she doesn’t use her left arm for momentum when hitting or serving that often, she is not awful but she really isn’t that good of a player...
