Hey, remember when we won a national championship with Logan Eggleston? Me too. Good times. And all of our graduated seniors went on to play pro? Great times.

Hey, remember when we won a national championship with Logan Eggleston? Me too. Good times. Such a satisfying season in so many ways. I’ll love it when Elliott wins another one. He’ll never win over the critics who want to insist he can’t coach, but I don’t care. He runs an awesome program. The model of consistency. I’m so grateful he’s our coach. Put up enough banners and it’s like The Great Garsby. “Have enough money and no one wonders where you got it any more.” Win enough championships, and how many banners you hang becomes your measurement.

Y’all won your first championship in ten years (before you disparage Hawaii, I’m not ranting like they are the next coming of the Jesus). Like come on now. Elliot is a damn good salesmen, and can bring in talent second to none. But even with an untrained volleyball eye, you can see he’s not the best coach. Is he bad? No. Is he a good coach? Also no. Will Texas win more? Yes. Is it because of Elliot’s coaching? Absolutely not

Just like anyone (all though some may agree) that’s not a Nebraska fan would agree John cook is an Ass. Elliot is a damn good recruiter, and has gotten somewhat better at managing his team (hello 2017 cuz that was BAAAD). He can recruit like no other. But he truly isn’t the greatest coach. He’s not awful, but his coaching isn’t making Texas win. They are getting players who are just insanely insanely talented

I mean coming into our thread uninvited and doing it isn’t going to make you any friends, but you’re allowed to be wrong He’s not getting fired any time soon, he makes a great living in a great city, and I think there are a few more championships in his future. What you think about his coaching doesn’t change any of that—and doesn’t make a future championship more or less likely Hookem

Elliot is a damn good salesmen, and can bring in talent second to none. But even with an untrained volleyball eye, you can see he’s not the best coach. Is he bad? No. Is he a good coach? Also no. Will Texas win more? Yes. Is it because of Elliot’s coaching? Absolutely not He runs a program. In that program the players improve. He doesn’t have to be personally responsible for their every improvement to get credit for it. Texas is the most consistent program in the country, with Nebraska a close second. No one else is close to those two. He is ultimately the one responsible. He’s the one most responsible for the atmosphere in Gregory. He’s the one most responsible for the incredible investment in the sport by the athletic department. He’s the one responsible for the support staff who come through, including 3 head coaches in Tonya Johnson, Salima Rockwell, and now Jaimie Morrison. It doesn’t begin to touch other coaching trees, but part of that is the assistants stay for a long time. That’s partly attributable to the atmosphere he’s built. Eggleston, O’Neal, and Phillips are all staying for their Covid year. That doesn’t happen everywhere. Texas is a recruiting super power along with Stanford and Nebraska, and has been for at least the last decade. Elliott is responsible for that. People like you are dismissive of what makes Elliott an outstanding program manager, and that’s your right. But the more banners he hangs up, the more hollow your opinion becomes. I’ll put it this way. If Elliott had been running the Hawaii program the last 20 years it would be in better shape than it is. Not to be dismissive of Hawaii’s accomplishments. I also don’t believe he’d be able to build the same kind of powerhouse at Hawaii that he has at Texas because of the difference in resources, and the realistic limitations of Hawaii geographically. But it would be better because the guy knows how to identify talent, convince that talent to work/play for him, and then build environments that make them want to stay. He’s elite in that regard. He’s going to continue to be successful because of that. None of it matters for outsiders other than the hardware. He now has his 2nd. You are dismissive because it took him 10 years. How many other coaches have two national championships in that time period? Rose, J. Cook, and Hambly. Rose is now retired. Nebraska just lost in the 3rd round, and Hambly is coming off two miserable seasons (not entirely his fault) before last year’s Elite Eight. I’d be glad to compare the postseason track record of any coach you care to name over the past 10 years to Elliott. You don’t have to like Elliott as a coach. I’m not looking for your approval. But I do find it amusing.

I can't find the exact quote. My google fu is simply not up to snuff. Something about someone asking him what do you say to people who feel like the only reason you win is because you have the best players. If someone finds the exact quote and can cite it, I'd love that.

Not in the mood to discuss your has-been program run by a mediocre head coach who will NEVER get her team to a regional final?
