I think an experienced MB is a must. The potential young talent at MB is so intriguing with Ames, Singleterry, Bunton, and maybe Byrd. But MB is such a tough position to play early. If Coach Elliott can get a top libero from the portal I think you do that as well. Halter and Akana are a terrific twosome, and Emerick and Ramirez can certainly contribute as freshmen, but I think if you can make the defense and serve-receive even stronger you do that. I'm ready with torches and pitchforks if Byrd is moved to the middle. |

I get the feeling you'll have a lot of company if that happens. 😀 I actually wish they would crosstrain players a little more often to be able to move inside/outside some if they have the natural ability to do that, but I know that's asking a lot of a player. |

I think Texas will get a libero/defensive specialist and an opposite from the portal. Texas has had success recently with libero transfers starting with O’Brien leading us to a runner up finish. And Fleck and Barnes winning the championship. I can’t see him letting two walk ons in Brennan and Reese seeing the court their freshman year. And I can’t see him letting Wenaas play 6 rotations. I also think we’re getting an opposite. Byrd and Helmers injuries seem pretty serious. And then Lauenstein likes almost every Texas volleyball post. And then her following Jerritt, Aundrea, Cursty, Ella, Madi, and Asjia means there has to be some interest from her or vice versa. I don’t think he’s getting a middle or setter with Swindle’s performance. Helmers has been back. Jordyn's injury is newer. Yeah she’s back but she hasn’t dressed out all season. She doesn’t even hit in warmups. Bunton started hitting in warmups after she wasn’t dressed out but Helmers hasn’t worn her uniform all season. |

We’ll see about Harvey. I hope so. But late recruitments invariably go Stanford’s way once they clear the admissions process. |

Ugh I want to know what Molly showed Madi during that visit that made her change her mind??? She was DEAD SET on no Texas…we have some persuasive people in the program. |
