I'll get some pics but I'm 6'5" (genuine height, not volleyball height) with a moderate vertical jump. When I spread out my hands and have thumb tips touching, there is MORE than enough room for a ball to fit between my arms if it is just in the wrong/right spot.
I've been picking up MH this season but have been known to wander around the OH & Opp positions when I'm allowed.

My coaching side has just kicked in. Proper position is standard, but for taller people it's a blocking approach that makes the difference.
Note to self: Don't say, "I'm trying to block". |
