Have you checked Instagram lately for the reporting of that Iowa State loss? Yes. The feed continues to read as if the match had never been played. Lots of in-your-face posts after victories though! Weird obsession.

last night, as i was rewatching highlights from Texas's national championship win over louisville, i started thinking that Texas social media should put together a montage of baby spice's best plays from the season. now putting that out into the universe well we know what the soundtrack should be

It was just so absurd that 4-5 players were on the floor and we still won the point

Akana’s service ace to finish off the season feels like it deserves a mention.

Now I don’t agree with coming into another schools thread and being even a little bit disparaging about their head coach but rather than actually engage in the conversation that was started, SOME of you got REALLY see-you-next-Tuesday-y about the Hawaii program and it’s coach.
Again, I get the reason to default to reactionary Texas-fan after what was said but as much as I like the program, but there are some glaring reasons as to why one would not see Elliot as a “good coach”.
Not that I agree but I don’t see the point of running away from conflict if you feel like your contradictory opinion is the right one and Wahinefan44 is in the wrong.
Pero like………. when it comes to Elliot and coaching……there is that glaring elephant in the room that fans of the program guys overlook and don’t seem to be able to look at objectively.
Idk, just a poorly handled exchange on both sides which I thought I’d throw my 2cents in as I really like both programs and have for years.

Idk, just a poorly handled exchange on both sides which I thought I’d throw my 2cents in as I really like both programs and have for years. Who made the rule: only a fan of titled thread can comment? Ridiculous! Anyone can comment on any thread: did we make this rule because we want to avoid an opposing hearing disparaging remarks about our coach? I think yes!? If you only want folks who support nebraska or texas start a website just for your team and make everyone show their ID at the door! But this is “volleytalk” where we talk about everyone in the game of volleyball! So Knock Elliot and Knock Cook: there is plenty to go around: 2 cali boys who left VB lamd to make their fortunes: appears Elliot doing a little better than cook at the moment: based on where Texas was when Elliot took over and where Nebraska was when cook took over: and if you look at programs they were at before present situation: elliot took USC to final four his last year i dont think cook had same success at Wiscy! And recently he hasnt beaten the team he left to come to nebraska? Hmmm just thinking our loud without looking up any facts

Idk, just a poorly handled exchange on both sides which I thought I’d throw my 2cents in as I really like both programs and have for years. What’s the glaring elephant in the room, in your opinion? BTW, I don’t agree about people coming on here and posting whatever. What is this conversation sidetracking us from, exactly? It’s not just this thread that’s pretty much dead. The whole board is dead for the most part. A little “Elliott is not a good coach” conversation livens things up a bit, IMO, Better than some dullard regularly objectifying the Texas players. Also, I have nothing but respect for the Hawaii program and it’s fans. It’s a historic program with a community support for all levels of volleyball that stands on its own. Geography, resources of the athletic department (which is in large part a consequence of geography) and the massive growth of the sport on the mainland has shifted Hawaii’s position of prominence, but the passion of the fans and community for the sport hasn’t changed one iota That said, I still stand by my statement that Elliott would have produced better results over the last 20 years than what Hawaii has actually achieved, because what makes Elliott elite as a program manager are entirely transferable skills, and do not require a specific program to be successful. I’ll also say that if my handle is TexasFan1234 and I go post on the Wisconsin thread about how Sheffield is not that great of a coach (which I don’t believe, but hypothetically) you better believe there’s going to be some clap back about the Texas program. That’s only natural.
