2018 Texas Volleyball

[TexasDPT 297]

And now ball control is going downhill....

[texasstrong12 4668]

16 all. Good response after falling behind early. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Eggleston is starting to get in a rhythm.

If we can’t terminate we’re going to lose. Gotta figure something out. 

Yeah, we don't have a Haley or Bailey that can hit over the block or a Paulina that can just blast through the block.....Amy Neal  knew how to hit around and tool the block...and no Chiaka who could kill any slide attack.

Hopefully, this will be the last time we have 3 freshmen hitting the wall all in the same match (Brionne, Katarina, and at times Sydney).

[Js1 85085]

Would be nice to pick up that back row attack. We blocked it once.

23-21 Texas

[texasstrong12 4668]

25-22 set 2 win for Texas. This has to be demoralizing for TCU. Not sure they can play much better defensively and it hasn't mattered.

Would be nice if TX had a consistent back row attack...

I'm really surprised that Logan isn't playing all the way around...but just watching her, she doesn't look ready yet...always a step slow and seems out of position  on defense.  There are so many freshman players on other teams who didn't have the accolades that Logan did who are playing all 6 rotations...and doing it well...it's just frustrating because that is the big knock on the Tx coaches.

Texas finding a way to win even when things aren't going well is good for future matches.

I expect us to play like crap this set after taking an early 2 set lead. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

5-1 start for TCU in the 3rd set. We always do this. No killer instinct.

And you are right...TO Texas.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Worst match of the season for Butler. If Butler was just average tonight this would be a spanking. 

Edited October 4, 2018 by texasstrong12

[Js1 85085]

And Luketic. I’d rather see Orie out there 

[perfectchaos007 6596]

Slow start again this set for Texas

[TexasDPT 297]

Good god...Katarina can't put any heat on an OOS ball.

[Js1 85085]

Omg Brionne is garbage tonight 

[TexasDPT 297]

Okay...maybe stop going to Butler.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Gotta stop setting Butler if she keeps hitting the ball 10 feet out of bounds. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Welp, this set is over. Get some momentum heading into the 4th set. 

[TexasDPT 297]

White just needs to go to a standing float serve. 

[TexasDPT 297]

I think Ashley forgets who she is setting in the middle...too low for Butler and too high for Johnson.

[TwiceHorn 31240]

Hmmm Yaazie in,  WTF. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Think Elliott benched Luketic and Butler. Tired of their shit play tonight. 

[TexasDPT 297]

Ashley is so inconsistent....that set to Johnson was at the net level.

[TwiceHorn 31240]

He should have benched Butler quite some time ago.

 

Not sure what the hold up on Yaazie was.  She is THE REMEDY for failure to terminate.

[texasstrong12 4668]

15-12 TCU. Chipping away but might be too late this set.

I guess he is trying to save her for the end of the season if she is injured???

[texasstrong12 4668]

15-13. Timeout TCU. 

We were down 12-6. Looks like the subs gave us some life. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

18-13 TCU. So much for getting back in this set. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Time to start force feeding White because nobody else can terminate. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Talk about an ugly set. Better get refocused or this is going 5. 

[TwiceHorn 31240]

Why is Butler even playing at this point.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Orie in for Butler. I'll be surprised if Butler returns again. I think Elliott had enough tonight. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

3 point run for Texas. Still 21-17 TCU. 

[perfectchaos007 6596]

Shittastic set

[texasstrong12 4668]

25-20 set 3 win for TCU. That was ugly.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Need the block to show up because this is a night where we can't terminate at all. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Butler with 3 kills and 5 errors. Back in to start set 4. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

My god Butler has been awful tonight. Elliott looks pissed.

[texasstrong12 4668]

TCU is really good defensively. If they just had more weapons at the net they would be good. 

[TexasDPT 297]

They switched Butler and Johnson in the rotation...Butler is now at M2 instead of M1.  

[TexasDPT 297]

No communication on the floor....just push Morgan out of the way...lol

[texasstrong12 4668]

We're in trouble. Gonna lose this if we don't wake up soon. 

[perfectchaos007 6596]

We’re playing like we did at KState. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

We're in complete meltdown mode. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Never seen us struggle this much to terminate. We can't put anything away tonight. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

TCU is really good defensively. Give them credit. 

[TwiceHorn 31240]

They are digging the fuck out of everything.  Including some pretty lucky stuff.

[texasstrong12 4668]

13 all. Right back in this set but damn TCU is digging everything.
