Tech beat Baylor in 5, in Waco. Wow.

Side note: maybe about 300 people there?

Eff Baylor (any other school I might feel bad for) but it's a Friday night, they are ranked in the top 10, haven't dropped a set in Big 12 play, etc. - and they can barely get 300 people there. Tbh 300 may even be a high estimate. Surely that many people dont travel with the football team for tomorrow's away game to be an excuse for low turnout.

Doesn’t sound like anyone is going to challenge us in conference. Elliot needs to get some national teams down here to scrimmage us 

Now now. We do play twice in Waco. I wouldn’t say that yet. Bad loss by Baylor but they have the talent to knock us off

With 16 conference matches remaining, odds are we’ll trip on ourselves somewhere in there, but it probably won’t be due to the opponent playing at a super high level. With Covid still being a thing, it probably would be logistically complicated to bring a national team to Austin anyways

Good GOD - Texas picks up 2023 Jordyn Byrd. It’s almost not fair at this point what Elliot is doing  

OPP -6'4 Auburn Tomkinson 
OH - 6'4 Sydney Helmers
S - 6'2 Ella Swindle
MB - 6'4 Nya Bunton
OH/MB/OPP - 6'4 Jordyn Byrd

Also add in the front row player heights of the 2022 Class: 

MB - 6'4 Marianna Singletary

OH/OPP - 6'4 Devin Kahahawai (She looks like she has grown when standing next to team members on the U18 team that recently took bronze at the World Championship)

OH - 6'0 Kenna Miller

Texas will be good upfront for years to come.....now if we could only improve our ball control....🙃

With that much talent, there will be attrition and the portal.  At this point, Elliot can load up on offense and go find a legit libero from the portal.

Fields was Offensive Player of the Week in the Big 12

Texas #1 in aces/set in the nation.  Eggleston and Parra are tied for #8 in aces.  Texas #3 in hitting %

 

This current back-to-back conference match format sucks - we get 2 matches a week, but it's a week between our last match and our next match.   Glad it will be ditched and go back to home/away in 2022.
