I do not feel worthy, but I will give it a shot. Maybe Noontime can help.

I look at this as a two stage swing. The second gif is where all of the important stuff happens.

I chose not to comment because I believe in rdbass's statement above. She didn't post, so it isn't my place to comment. That said, she is a top level D1 player and has only just begun her college career. If I were to pick one of the two swings to have my DD emulate, it would be the red shirt version. There are a lot of good things going on in that particular swing. Let's leave it at that. JMHO.

Looks like the same swing to me. The difference I see is she is totally focused and amped up in the game footage.
Looks very similar to Harper.

I thought that too....'all back, all forward'.
Look at what the hitter does with he front foot. Front foot isn't 'planted'/heel plant until during swing. Shifts AND swings(good). Not a swing style to teach a younger hitter.
Again JMHO.
All forward?

All forward?
I tend to agree with that question since the hands are still moving back and up (which is why I am still grasping the all back/all forward and rotational swing and a million other concepts). Is this a swing you'd encourage a young hitter to emulate in any way?

This swing is not "all forward".
I see significant differences in her movement pattern between the two swings posted here.
IMO she made some significant changes. To answer your question ... IMO Jenna felt the need to make some changes ... which implies that she personally didn't have the swing that she wanted going forward.

Jenna Lilley (Oregon/US Jr. Nat Team) - Batting practice at USWNT tryouts today...
Thoughts on this swing?
Was this pitch 'inside'?
Let's see a bigger sample from this BP practice.
