  1. Ashley is so inconsistent....that set to Johnson was at the net level.
  2. I think Ashley forgets who she is setting in the middle...too low for Butler and too high for Johnson.
  3. White just needs to go to a standing float serve.
  4. Okay...maybe stop going to Butler.
  5. Good god...Katarina can't put any heat on an OOS ball.
  6. And you are right...TO Texas.
  7. Texas finding a way to win even when things aren't going well is good for future matches.
  8. 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.
  9. 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).
  10. And now ball control is going downhill....
  11. Yeah, TCU just knows where the Texas players like to hit at...they are picking up everything.
  12. Butler hitting in the negatives and Katarina hitting 0....they need to pick it up.
  13. I hope Yaazie gets better soon. We need her arm on the right pin. Katarina ain't cutting it anymore...don't know what happened b/c she was playing so well in the beginning of the season.
  14. Brionne and Shook are completely out of sync....
  15. And of course Autumn cracks under pressure being served at...
  16. We deserve to lose this set. They are playing like crap.
  17. As long as Autumn doesn't serve, she should be ahead of Hahn....and Jhenna should be moved into Hahn's spot ASAP...
  18. Agree...she's like the modern flower child...talented as fuck, but doesn't give a fuck
  19. Shook is Shook....sometimes looks like an elite setter....other times plays like a bench player. Micaya was consistent this match, scoring 21 Kills and hitting @ .383...She's been a steady player....but I feel like I keep waiting for her to take it to another level and always get disappointed she doesn't play to her potential....I am seriously waiting for her to play at a Destinee Hooker level...
  20. Exactly....start Jhenna Gabriel ahead of Hahn!
  21. BENCH Claire Hahn...Build for the future and put Jhenna Gabriel in her spot. Even if Claire comes in to situationally serve for Micaya, it keeps her OFF the court! Other than that, I liked the switch between Morgan and Brionne in the line-up...it gives Brionne more opportunities to touch the ball at M1, which she will learn she needs to be more consistent at. Morgan at M2 is a more natural position for her IMO since she has 2 pin hitters in the front row with her to spread out the block. I predicted that would happen and that Brionne would be serving...I'm glad to see those changes were made.
  22. Sit her ass down on the bench....i'm tired of her cracking under pressure....3 years of this shit
  23. Fucking Claire Hahn....I'm over her being on the floor
  24. Yep, Lexi played all 6 rotations until conference started...then she was front row only and served (similar to what Logan is doing now). Again, I think Jerritt wanted better ball control at the time, but Autumn wasn’t much of an upgrade IMO. But if anyone has watched Nebraska’s last two matches where Lexi was in the lineup as a 6 rotation player, she and the team are actually dominating. They do have a freshman setter, but she’s getting great passes from Foecke and their Libero & DS, so she is running a pretty diverse offense. They are hiding Lexi in serve-receive, and in the rotations she is passing, she isn’t covering much space. But NU has the passers that can do that. And it’s pretty ridiculous to see what Lexi does with consistent setting...
  25. Brionne came in as an offensive weapon. It was her defense that needed catching up (and the area where she needs to continue to improve) because as others have pointed out, she's still a step slow reading the setter when the opposing team is in-system. Redshirts have unlimited practice time once they are with the team, so she scrimmaged against the 1's all last season. Her 'real' experience will be this year playing against live competition. On a side note, it's pretty frustrating to see Logan still not being allowed to play all 6 rotations yet. She was a 6-rotation starter in all the USA Youth ('16 & '17) and Junior ('18) National Teams matches, while playing with the international Mikasa ball (it's harder to control) and her passing/ball control was fine. I guess I can see Jerritt wanting more ball control from the DS's for the tough, non-conference matches but I also think it's hindering her development...and probably harder for her to develop any kind of rhythm coming in and out of the line-up every 3 rotations. Having Logan in the back row will also open up a hitting outlet for both in-and out-of-system sets.
