lmao. Your original comment was not you feeling bad she got benched. You even said yourself it was just you being petty Where did I say I feel bad for her lol? I said it was a sucky situation for the two of them that one would have to be benched. I *did* feel bad for Bella back when I thought Kayla was gonna be a lock, but Elliott seems really high on her and she played against Minnesota so we'll see. to say berg mark is the best blocker they've ever had makes me think Elliot iOS not going to take her off the floor. its not like she's some offensive liability and Texas has 4 other hitters that are in the top tier of their positions across the NCAA, its not like they need caffeys offense.

Yeah that comment was very high praise. It's also funny cuz her blocking stats were so bad at Cal lmao but god knows what they had going on over there lol smh.

Maybe! In all seriousness, I knew it was going to be a sucky situation for either Bella or Kayla. Yes, if they win it all they will have both "contributed" but I'm not going to be convinced that she'll be happy about not being a starter after all that went into her final season eligibility. well maybe Cook shouldn’t have slowed down the process so much that she couldn’t evaluate more options. regardless, she looks engaged and just fine to me. Is she also on scholarship at TX? If so, is she getting scholarship + potential NIL cash vs just NIL in Nebraska?

I just don't see it happening

Imagine a Nebraska fan talking about high profile transfers who get benched 👀 Imagine thinking it's the same thing when one of them got to be a starter at the school she transferred to for 3.5 seasons.

Imagine a Nebraska fan talking about high profile transfers who get benched 👀 after she played 6 rotations for 3 years, she was benched for less than half a season. if caffey were to never start that is a very different situation

And even if not, oh well. There are worse places to spend a year or two than Austin, that’s for sure.

Imagine a Nebraska fan talking about high profile transfers who get benched 👀 Imagine thinking it's the same thing when one of them got to be a starter at the school she transferred to for 3.5 seasons. Caffey wasn't with the team until right before practices started. Of any position on the floor that affects the MB more, other than setter (which happened last season with SKT). Especially when she's a relatively undersized MB who depends on timing with her setter to maximize her effectiveness on offense, and timing with her pins to maximize her effectiveness on defense. That said, it perplexed me she was kept out of the lineup versus Minnesota after starting both matches versus Ohio State. Maybe Booth being 6'7 affected things? I don't know. Like I said, it's perplexing to me. But she didn't come to Texas for automatic playing time. She came for other reasons. I don't know what they are, but I speculate they had to do with an opportunity to win a national championship, playing at a program that has similar resources and a similar investment in volleyball that Nebraska does, and financial factors which Texas was uniquely able to address. I doubt she's happy being on the bench any more than Parra has been, or Phillips after she was pulled. It's a deep team, and there simply aren't enough chairs in the rotation for all the participants when the music stops. There's a scramble going on, and versus Minnesota Caffey was one of the losers for playing time.

There's no two involved here unless she ends up on the bench, which I seriously do not anticipate given her stated career goals.
