What an absolute ass kicking. Their serve receive was somehow worse than Wisky's. I mean, the bestest team in the world couldn't do the most basic of volleyball skills. You could hear a God damn pi

Women’s VBall needs a better championship trophy. 

It's a standard NCAA championship trophy. 🙄

I think this was the key to the season. 

The two transfers (Barnes and Wenaas) were almost unplayable to start the season. They become good players to end the year. Maybe it was the transition to a new team. 

Barnes came in quite late too. Probably want to try to get transfers in at the start of summer to get a whole summer of practice

Nebraska will be the favorites with what they are returning but I definitely wouldn't count Texas out with Skinner, Halter, and Swindle returning. 
We have one of the best OH, best setters, and best defensive specialists in the country returning.

A little help on the way. Smart move by Ayden to change her mind.

John Cook’s entire postgame presser is whining about Texas being older bc of transfers and O’Neal having that national team experience over the summer.

He isnt wrong. But what a strange thing to complain about. He should be proud of his team and what they accomplished. They will be a tougher out next year.

He looked so beaten down when the interviewed him between the 2nd and 3rd set. He knew they had no answer for the Barbarians at the gate.

He called his first timeout in the 3rd set at 19-10. He absolutely just gave up by that point

Beyond being young they just look flat out intimated. 

Skinner and O'Neal were talking shit the entire match and staring them down. Nebraska didn't have the same fire. They just looked flat-out intimated. That's on coaching.

It is bc Nebraska has taken transfers too. Sun, Robinson, Hord, Beason.

O’Neal, Halter, Phillips and Swindle are all players we recruited and developed.

I’m warm and fuzzy imagining all the cornhusker tears right now. 😂

Seriously. If this were... many other opponents, I'd be sitting here genuinely feeling bad for what we did to them.

But they aren't. I feel nothing but joy for our team and schadenfreude for theirs.

Harper Murray in particular was very animated to start and her demeanor almost completely flipped half way through the 1st set. 

I don't think I've seen anything like that. O'Neal and Skinner just intimidated those young players and they had no response.

Texas was so close to flipping Murray and Choboy last year and Maggie Mendelson the year prior. Then we took Akana and Caffey and flipped Ames. 

I love our rivalry with Nebraska

This. I loved it. But what a shitty coach 

I'm not a big John Cook fan, but he's a pretty good coach.  One of the best in the game.

Usually, when you see him, his teams are winning or at least close.  He has the same sort of stone-faced demeanor that comes off as smug and arrogant.

Murray is obviously very good but she's not that great out of system. 

In both final 4 matches she was shaky as hell without a good set. This is why we take for granted players like Eggleston who often had to dominate out of system.

I’m sure this has been discussed but our recruiting class is Ames and some pieces or it’s a great class?


Skinner, Akana, halter, and Swindle all back. I’d imagine we’ll get portal starters to replace O’Neal and Wenaas. Why wouldn’t you want to come live in Austin and go for a 3peat?

And hook em again! Let’s fucking go! Some football momentum, a natty, it’s been a good weekend to be a horn!

Ames is really it. Maybe Ramirez the DS. But we also have Byrd and Bunton redshirting so basically it’s like adding them to the incoming class.
