It feels like Texas schools don't get much respect in general. Texas and TCU were under-seeded. 

Soccer is huge at the club level in Texas but it's never taken off at the collegiate level. Has there ever been a Texas school that's made the college cup (final 4)? I feel like there might be some bias involved just based on how we treat soccer in Texas. It's not a huge sport that schools prioritize at all. Schools in the Northeast and out West all take soccer much more seriously.

Aggy in 2014

We added the #7 recruit, #32 recruit, #45 recruit, #80 recruit, and #94 recruit from the top 100. Pretty good class considering we will likely add some good Canadians too that aren't ranked in the recruiting rankings.

We do return Brothers, Chloe Shimkin, Montgomery and Villareal but we are losing a lot - Justus, Missimo, Byars, Jilly Shimkin, Haugen, Ward, Lapomardo, Cox, Miller 

I hope we are active in the portal - Justus was such a good find.  We need another Justus at GK

I wonder if Cox will return. I know she was honored on SR day but she's not going to get a NWSL opportunity based on her injury history. 

If she wants to continue playing soccer in the US her best option is probably to return.

I thought it was confirmed she is not returning but maybe she will

We are likely returning 3 starters on the back line (Montgomery, Thompson, and Brothers). Maybe 4 if Cox returns. Then we should have really good wingers/outside midfielders in Villareal and Chloe Shimkin. 

I would think Ava Mcdonald would be the starting striker (#7 recruit in this year's class) and Avery Clark/Maalouf are quality players that can be reserves in that role. 

Need to add some central midfielders and goalkeeper out of the portal.

Yeah, we need to do a little bit of portal reloading, but there is still a base talent, especially if Cox returns and can stay healthy. 

Still think last year was *the* year with a healthy Byars and Missimo.  Missimo and Villareal are going to have to carry us if we want to get past the 2nd round. 

Terrible start. Down 1-0 to Boston. 

This would be peak Ange Kelly. Win the SEC tournament title and then lose the opening round of the NCAA tournament. 

Boston scores first when we decide to watch a ball bounce slowly across the box

We tie it up when their keeper drops a ball onto Ward's foot

4 for Ward!  No one has done Boston this dirty since the Tsarnaev brothers.

It’s like if Bucky Dent sold cocaine to Len Bias.

Didn’t think Kelly had it in her to win the SEC after losing Byars 

You and me both. Now let's hope she can actually advance in the tourney when it matters. This team better make the final four or Kelly needs to be fired. I'm sick of her high recruiting and falling short at the slight eight. We have the talent to make it to the final four and beyond. I don't care if FSU is dominant. 

Texas will lose in the S16 like last year and Kelly will get a 3-5 year contract extension. It is what it is.
