  1. Great get, easily a better prospect and fit than the Stone kid.
  2. I assume you all were in Indianapolis?
  3. I see your point, but personally I’m fine with it.
  4. Especially a few that aren’t on the couch.
  5. I’m glad you guys took the time out of your busy NBA coaching schedules to chime in on such things as rotations and so forth. Maybe all you excellent coaches can give Coach Aston some pointers on how to coach.
  6. It’s interesting that Ashley Shook is still at Texas and didn’t transfer like many expected.
  7. In fairness to her she is only a Sophomore.
  8. So now that the season has ended what you think about Logan and Sun in terms of them as players and where they need to improve. I thought that Logan was great in the tournament.
  9. Since the bottom one is obviously unlikely it is the first two. But I doubt that it happens because Elliott is just so comfortable with them.
  10. Unfortunately as we all know nothing is going to change in terms of improving defensively until
  11. I thought they played in a great conference?
  12. I sure I'm glad that I'm past the stage that many on here are at and that's believing in these recruiting rankings /services. They have proven that they don't know what they're talking about. Also most of these recruits won't see the field for 2 years to see if they can actually play and only 2 or 3 will contribute right away anyway. Jordan, Jake, and Floyd are the highschool kids that I think will contribute right away. Especially Jordan because he plays a position of need and is enrolling early.
  13. Absolutely. The first thing he needs to do is to tell White to get rid of her serve. But the problem is that those were issues coming into the season that they supposedly worked on.
  14. I’m a frustrated fan just like you guys and I’m also tired of the team coming up short. But the bottom line is that Texas just hasn’t been good enough. There’s no excuses from me, if you’re great you find a way to win. And Texas hasn’t done that in the recent years. It doesn’t matter how high your recruiting class is ranked or how high a player was ranked playing against high school talent. They just haven’t been good enough. And I’m all for Coach Elliott maybe needing to bring in some fresh blood at the assistant positions. I just hope that the odds will eventually work in Texas’ favor because the more you put yourself in a position to win eventually you’re going to win.
  15. I know highlight films are obviously intended to focus on postive plays but the first thing that I do when I’m watching a defensive lineman is to see whether or not he has a high motor. And I just didn’t see that in the highlights that I watched of Leal. But I certainly saw that in the Warren kid and the Sweat kid.
  16. Some of you say things that don’t make sense. EVERY program is playing for the present in that particular year. And if Texas didn’t plan for the future how do you explain Elliott red shirting middle blockers in consecutive years when they could have easily contributed in their freshman year especially Butler?
  17. Sure. I’ll buy maybe needing to bring in new assistants but I’m not buying your Salima point.
  18. Does Leal have any senior highlights because the highlights that I saw of him from his sophomore or junior year I was not impressed.
  19. Good for all the young men no need to continue to play in meaningless bowl games when your livelihood is at stake.
  20. So you’re going to give Salima credit for them winning it in 2012 and not Haley, Bailey, or Shadare? Or the same guy that is on the staff now and primarily responsible for the back row/ defensive play that you and so many others are complaining about? So what about the other times Texas didn’t win when she was on the staff?
  21. There’s a lot of things that go into it and a lot of luck especially when it comes to injuries. It’s also about what the other top teams have returning or going and is White going to return next year.
  22. Because I’m a loser I’ve gone back and watched the match. And I’m not an expert but through a set and a half I counted only 2 Times that BYU successfully dig a clean hard hit ball that wasn’t tip or slowed by the block and they controlled it to the 10 foot line or better. Again, I’m not saying Texas is great at ball control but it wasn’t like BYU was great in that area either like some you are saying.
  23. Some of you go the matches and meet/ talk to the coaches, why don’t you guys ever ask Elliott about the issuesthat defense/ ball control has been for years?
  24. Agreed. And unlike Leach or kingsburry Coach Elliott has the ability to actually recruit quality defensive players.
