Can't wait to see her next year. https://tinyurl.com/yq2a2qxv Ames, a 6-foot-4 attacker from Prosper in North Texas, announced last week her intentions to decommit from the Cornhuskers and pledge to Texas. She couldn’t make it official Wednesday by signing her national letter of intent because of ongoing clerical work but expressed her excitement at joining Texas on Thursday.

November 11, 20232 yr Author I believe we can clinch a share of the Big 12 tonight with KU’s loss to ISU last night. Up 3 games on BYU/KU with 4 games to play.
November 11, 20232 yr Author Also that KSU loss hurts more now because WSU dropped another match last night. I’m over the loss though, because even last year’s Super Team didn’t finish conference play undefeated, and that was with Fleck and SKT and Eggleston. We ran into a hot (at home) KSU team in Manhattan and finally dropped a conference match we had been begging for with the slow starts. Neither of Elliot’s title teams finished Big 12 play undefeated.
November 11, 20232 yr I honestly still think this was a pretty good coaching job by Elliott dependent on how the season finishes. A Big 12 title and top 6ish team with a FR setter, no real OH2, and Barnes not being near the type replacement we thought were getting defensively. This is a pretty flawed team but right there in the mix of things. Now, Elliott needs to do a better job in the portal this offseason and he is to blame for the flawed roster. I do think Parra was bad luck though based on playing time the last 2 years. Not much you can do about that when you have a national title roster.
November 11, 20232 yr Author God Cincinnati is bad. We hit .476 to their .062. 12 blocks, 6 aces Skinner 13-1-19, .632 Bella .714 O’Neal .571 Wenaas .471

Parra would be a solid part of this team if she was here, but she is not the physical, athletic OH2 we need now. Edited November 11, 20232 yr by ruitxn
November 13, 20232 yr Parra would be a solid part of this team if she was here, but she is not the physical, athletic OH2 we need now. Seems to me we need someone who can get decent swings on out of system and imperfect sets.

November 16, 20232 yr Author 24-23 ISU. Texas trying to give this set away with service errors and just hitting it out (Skinner and Wenaas)
November 16, 20232 yr Author Wow, Texas choked that one away, 24-26 probably don’t want to end your set with 3 hitting errors and a service error Edited November 16, 20232 yr by Js1
November 16, 20232 yr How the fuck did halter do that? Bump set with back to net, outside of the back line. Right where skinner could handle it.

November 16, 20232 yr Author Lmao the ISU libero just vacated a whole half of the court on Madi’s serve. She didn’t even need to place it anywhere strategically O’Neal on the slide has been….terrible tonight.
