    The plot thickens...... One of the posters above is the boyfriend of Leolia JeanJean, an Arkansas player who was kicked off the team earlier in the year.

    This is causing quite a stir on social media. Seeing a lot of D1 coaches and players lambasting Arkansas' action

    Some story lines for the tournament: -Kansas State and Oklahoma are on the bubble and needs to perform well -Kansas is on the borderline of hosting -Texas needs to position itself for an ideal Sweet 16 match up (if they can get this far). The dreaded team I think most teams ranked in the top 8 don't want is Pepperdine (runner up at indoors WITHOUT their top player). Due to their weak conference schedule, Pepperdine is going to finish somewhere between 11-14. So funny thing is a lower seed might be better than whatever higher seed is paired up with the Waves.

    Nationally ranked in top 10- Basketball, Volleyball, Rowing, Tennis, Golf, Swimming, Track and Field (indoor was a bust but outdoors is now number 9) Soccer is top 20 What's the one sport missing?

    Just won the doubles point! Service break on court 2 thanks to two double faults and two second serves which Telles promptly ripped with his forehand. (definitely not the service game Baylor wanted)

    Congrats to former Longhorn Elizabeth Begley. As Assistant Coach, her Princeton team just won the Ivy League title today and made the NCAAs! Also, Bree Addison is an assistant coach right now at Miami of Ohio.

    Woops my mistake it was top 400 not 100 but impressive otherwise Technically, Van Zyl at Baylor and Hattingh at Arizona State are higher rated than Poluta as far as South African players. Don't know if they were ever considered but let's just say Texas has more depth than those teams to cover an absence like this.

    If you noticed, Poluta wasn't at the Baylor match......for the past week and a half, she was in Montenegro representing her native country South Africa in Fed Cup! That's a pretty big honor. She basically played the second line for her country. (Sadly South Africa basically only has one professional women's player.) Helped South Africa to advance to the higher group. Poluta also pushed a former top 100 player to three sets. This was on clay, so quite an adjustment to do in the middle of the season.

    NCAA might give UT a break. Baylor has a bigger chance to be sent to College Station as they're still going to have a lower rank even if they beat Texas.
  11. Aleemay
    Well...Texas does have last year's Baylor volunteer coach on the coaching staff. Maybe she can give some inside pointers haha Baylor has been switching around their lineup a lot this year mostly because they don't have a line 1 or 2 player that can win consistently. Also on the line this match is Texas is still undefeated this year when they're playing outdoors.

    Christian had surgery in the summer and is why he didn't play in the fall, so seeing him win twice last weekend with a 12-2 record this spring is a good sign he can return to the form he had in his freshmen fall season

    Nice seeing that picture with the Big 12 trophy Poluta is not in any of those pictures though.....
  14. Aleemay
    Matches against the two weakest Big 12 teams this weekend....can clinch the number one seed for the conference tournament and share of regular season title with the wins Honestly these are the matches that I want to see us get through with no injuries. Maybe Wagland, Labrana, or Crovetti will see some court time?

    Huge win by Marta! Gutsy play against a senior playing on Senior Day. Don't want to look too far ahead but Texas is most likely going to host the first two rounds. Good chance that the committee will ship the Aggies and the Rice Owls (currently on the bubble) to Austin.

    Lost the dubs point...let's bounce back in singles!

    TCU's top player didn't play in their last match. If she's still injured today, then today should be an easier than normal road win
  18. Aleemay
    Yeah...I know Coach Johnson-Lynch got some flack for not granting Malloy a release when she transferred to Baylor from Iowa Sate. What kind of made the situation worse was when Coach Johnson-Lynch said she would have given Malloy a release but some kind of internal policy at ISU kept her from doing so.

    Doubt it. It's a huge step up to play pro tennis week in and week out. Bianca would be the only one who can achieve some sustainable results right now and even then she sometimes doesn't make it out of the qualifying draws of the low level tournaments. Some players that did turn pro (Di Lorenzo at Ohio State and Lewis at LSU) got huge government funding to do so.
  20. Aleemay
    Definitely some big wins here. If you look at the universal tennis ratings for each player, Bianca, Bojana, and Dani all had wins today against higher rated players meaning this team is elevating their play.
  21. Aleemay
    On the twitter account, it showed Marta practicing yesterday. Maybe the coaches saw something in Dani during practice to start her today.

    Both Jefferson and Washington had already committed to Texas before MacKay was hired in June 2016

    We'll get a better picture on Sunday. Almost impossible to make it to the final four without facing a SEC team. They're trying to get around ten teams in to the tournament. Facing Florida, last season's champion. But they lost four players from that team-2 to graduation, 1 going pro, and another got kicked off the team in the middle of this year
