    Uh, the other thing being when Binney enters the match Spears sits on the bench. That's even bigger to me than replacing Swindle, and I love both Swindle and Kahahawai.  I think there's something

  • That's going to be a new McCombs graduate diving all over the floor in a few hours.    

  • If Vandy finishes off Cal (leads 2-0), the challenge will end in an 8-8 tie Texas, Bama, MSST and OU all had 5 set wins today

Swindle can't even set a good ball 2ft from the left side

She's terrible. Sorry not sorry.

10-3 run since up 5-1. Must turn it around now 

It’s hard to fathom. All of a sudden they resumed beating the shit out of us

Another friggin' service run from Wisconsin. 

This is dribbling away. Got to get a side out.

I don't know that we've scored on one of Stafford's serves, and she's usually one of our best servers.

Serving Stafford off the court. 

With the game she's playing she shouldn't be out there

Plenty of blame to go around.

But not quite over yet.

Wisconsin winning the long rallies, too.

Man, this is not looking good. Not with our inability to go on serving runs.

Have you seen how many missed sets she's had?  I mean our passing is awful and serving is lackluster but she for sure doesn't better a ball. 

Gotta change the momentum….JE challenge is a long shot…..maybe to change the momentum.

DID NOT WORK.    We are desperate right now.

Not physical or precise tonight. Bad time to trot that mix out there. 

We lost our aggression. Sets aren't perfect but we aren't even taking swings.

Yeah. Many of her sets are low and short. Hard to do much with a 7’ feed. 

Who are the top 2 blockers in the country and can we get them to portal here? They’ve taken Stafford out of the game, why can’t we do the same?

Its possibly the last game of the year and she still sets the 1 ball to the middles elbow

Lol what? This is so fucking dramatic

Well, Elite 8 isn't really shitty.  This team exceeded expectations, most likely.

I will point out that a lot of Wisconsin's points - I mean A LOT - have come from swings where either Colyer or Vaginajic are 10 feet off the net with a roll shot. It's not because Fuerbringer bettered the ball so much. It's because one of the Wisconsin players miraculously got the second hit somewhere close to their vicinity and they capitalized.

This team felt a year ahead of schedule all year long

And it finally showed

Their coach always takes timeouts at the perfect moment

Texas gets a run, you call a TO, to thwart their momentum…..we have to use their TO to our advantage…..we are desperate at this point.

We have to respect their middles so block is late. They don’t, camping on the pins.

Kujundjic as our serving substitute. That has been the biggest waste of a rotation this year. I'm sure she's a nice person, but we need another Akana.

Our middle production has been shit for a couple of years now.

I just can't stand that we haven't changed serving strategy at all.

Must be a coach determined to be right?

Right, but aggy one-upping Texas in another sport … 

Swindle service error at wrong time……ball game…..turning thus around is almost impossible.

It starts with recruiting. We're not recruiting great servers. And we're not playing our most aggressive servers. Maybe they hit it out of play too much, but Miller has a top spin serve. Kahahawai has a top spin serve. Spears has a top spin serve although we didn't see it this year. Elliott just seems to hate top spin serves, to be honest.
