We aren’t so high and mighty about it though We only bemoan the portal use by JE when it doesn’t work out - Carlson mostly, but also Wenaas. We’ve also lost players, such as Sun, Parra, Singletary. Works both ways Texas fans fully embrace what Skinner, Fleck, SKT, Barnes and Stafford have meant to us. Throw in Bergmark and Gary too Edited December 11Dec 11 by Js1
December 11Dec 11 To me it's a don't hate the playa, hate the game. We're like Chik-fil-a. We didn't invent the portal process. We invented winning national championships with it.
December 11Dec 11 I’ve always felt like Creighton got all of the elite recruits that weren’t offered by Nebraska. They are the backup plan for midwestern girls who wanted to play for Nebraska.

Would love to see Cal Poly rise up against Kentucky. Knocking them off obviously would be a jaw-dropper, but a guy can dream.
December 11Dec 11 Two straight overpasses by Cal Poly down 17-19 in Set 1 are our concern, dude. Now the Cats are up 24-17. Can't afford to give them anything, as we know all too well.

December 11Dec 11 I don't think the SEC was particularly impressive outside of the top 3 teams. In some ways it was downright awful. But I'm so glad we're not in the Big 12 any more. ASU was their flag bearer, and they might as well have been playing in a mid major conference. Fitting they lost to Creighton - who is a solid team, for sure. That match against Kentucky in the SEC championship game might have been the best volleyball match I've seen all year. I know we lost, but we were challenged, and I feel like we came out better for it. Same with Kentucky.
December 11Dec 11 Press conference prior to the Indiana match. I have to say other than Elliott putting the NCAA on blast for their decisions regarding the replay cameras and the news that there's a soft expectation for 2029 for the new volleyball arena, this was an awful press conference. Thomas Jones, bless his heart, asked every question. No one there knew anything about the Indiana team. Torrey Stafford wasn't asked a question, really. You'd never know she's a leading candidate for National Player of the Year based on that press conference. The media coverage this program receives is such a disappointment. Someday I hope we get someone who actually knows something about volleyball who regularly covers the team. Texas Volleyball NCAA Regional Semifinal Press Conference | Dec. 11, 2025

December 12Dec 12 Playing in front of dozens of their friends and family. I get that it's 11pm local and the hosts aren't playing but it still kind of sucks. I was impressed by how many people showed up early at Gregory last week for PSU-USF but I'm sure it will empty out tomorrow after the horns play first.
December 12Dec 12 Yeah SMU rarely lives up to their seeding. They're going to be upset early again it looks like.

I'll miss her as much as any player we've had in volleyball. Among any player we've had at UT. She's been such a joy. I don't know if everyone saw the senior day recordings Texas posted, but Emma's dad couldn't have been more complimentary and more grateful for the experience his daughter had. You could just clip his comments and send it to the parents of every recruit and we might not miss on another recruiting battle. Not that we miss on all that many as it is.

I'll always remember in the 90s on the GoBig12 board John Mackovic's son posted regularly. He attended UT of course, so there was an affiliation beyond his Dad being the head coach, but obviously that's where his loyalties were. I told him pretty early on I wasn't sure that was the best place for him to participate. When things got ugly and he was constantly trying to defend his Dad, it was extraordinarily awkward. But yeah, I wouldn't want to read about all the sexual activities an anonymous person would like to carry out with a family member. Especially a daughter. Nieces, too. On some level, I don't even like them having boyfriends. I'm constantly wondering at what point am I going to have to murder them for not treating my daughter/niece right.
December 12Dec 12 So…all aggy has to do is beat #2 Louisville….then #1 Nebraska to make it to the final 4…..I don’t see that happening. We have to take care of business. Lots of good teams still out there.
