So, the Big 12 conference football schedules for 2023 were released yesterday. Central Florida, Houston, Cincinnati, and BYU now part of the conference schedule.
Have to admit I haven't been paying attention to what this means for Big 12 volleyball for 2023. Are we going to follow the SEC's conference pre-COVID scheduling model since they also have 14 members (well, 13 since Vandy doesn't play volleyball, but neither does Okie State)? Was this already decided/discussed and I just missed it? Guess we won't be playing everyone home and away.

It hasn't been decided/discussed, but I don't think we'll be playing everyone home and away, no. Unless Texas schedules more matches, it would actually be a boon to add all of those teams home and away, but Elliott knows what he's doing. As a fan I wish we played more, but I'll quit making it a critique until I've won a couple of national championships the way he has.

When I look at all the injuries other teams have to fight through year in and year out, I’m glad we play a more conservative number of games.

Speaking of injuries, I keep having war flashbacks to Tech and Northwestern last season. I really hope we pick up another setter this summer. I don’t need a Blossom or Podraza. Just someone who’s a solid option if things go bad.

Well, with 13 programs, the SEC has an 18-match conference schedule. B1G has a 20-match conference schedule, but they have 14 volleyball programs. We had a 16-match conference schedule in the Big 12 playing all other 8 programs twice.
Assuming we follow the SEC model and play 18 conference matches in the new Big 12, that means 2 more conference matches than what we've been playing. Hope that doesn't mean 2 less non-conference matches for us.

So is Carissa Barnes not coming to Texas? I saw she’s playing beach at TAMUCC this spring. She still has Texas volleyball in her bio but at the very end of that it says TAMUCC😬

It was posted here awhile back that she would be attending TAMUCC this spring to finish her degree.
