2020 Texas Volleyball (Hopefully)
Thanks for posting. That was a much better performance. Better passing = more in-system attacks that get over/around the block. Speaking of blocking, 22 blocks in 3 sets is pretty dominant.

The first match was replayed on LHN the next day. I keep checking for the replay of the 2nd match and can't find it.

How the fuck would Tom know? He never runs one.

Charlie Strong would have busted right through that. 😀 I was referencing the locker room gif. As for the girl. My nephew is a freshman. I gotta tell him to find her.

RIP Joe Morgan
My first little league glove was a Joe Morgan. Also had a Nolan Ryan/JR Richard poster. I loved those Astros teams.

Just checking. Nalani and Logan were clearly told to dial the serve back in the 3rd set. Logan served 3 times in the 2nd set and not one found the court. ISU is a pretty good defensive team, but ours is still better. Morgan had a few ridiculous digs. Skylar had some great kills in big moments. Molly was outstanding from the opposite side. Both middles were solid as well. It looked like they slowed down the timing a little on some of them. The hitter wasn't quite in the air when Jhenna set the ball. That threw off the block and made for some easy kills.

I didn't catch all the commentary. Did I miss something?

THIS! Morgan is doing what Hahn did - nasty floater that's harder to pass than the Nalani/Micaya/Logan hard jump serve with far fewer errors. Also, Shook came in to block late in all 3 sets and played the whole last 1/3 of the third set. Announcers never said anything about her in the portal. Speaking of announcers, I miss Paul Sunderland.

I hope this is the case. We're going to need her to sub in for Jhenna late in a tight match as some point when she's on the front row.

We were much better from the service line last night. KU only blocked 10 balls, but they slowed down many more to keep rallies going, which is what led to our lower hitting %. Also, Logan handled service reception better. She knows teams are going to pick on her all year.

Somebody can just have these things. They're going to waste sitting in my kitchen.

Agree with Twice, definitely a good opener. If Morgan came in and took the job from Sydney, that alone says our back row defense will be better, and it looked as much. It took a set for Jhenna to get the timing with O'Neal and Butler. Nalani dialed back her serve in the 2nd set and Logan did so in the 3rd, and that helped both of them. Looking for another sooner spanking tonight.

Texas opens as a 19 point favorite @ Texas Tech
Pretty sure it was flour with a hole in the center. At least if I were going to do it now, that's what I would use. They hold together better and are a little heavier to cut through the wind. I assume the hole also helped with aerodynamics.

Funny story about my last trip to Lubbock in November 1994. Unbeknownst to me, a tortilla made its way into my tuba. It stayed there through the sun bowl in El Paso. I found it in April.

Yellow season parking pass (lots 108 & 118) for sale. Not looking to profit off surlyers. $150 will cover what I paid plus quick shipping. I'm in Round Rock.
