I thought I was helping the Texas thread get out of hand, then I followed VT-Five 0 to some other threads😳 I need to take another 2 weeks off and up my game.

I don’t believe that even for a second. I just think people are reading the article wrong. Well, or they’re reading it right, and the article was poorly written. The ONLY way that’s possible is if Elliott took her aside and had a frank conversation with her about his feelings of Kahahawai being the better starting option on the right side. Which I also don’t believe. She can still play beach next year regardless. I think that’s a way more likely interpretation of what was written in the article. Having said all that, her playing only beach does open up another scholarship, and I was completely and utterly wrong about the chances of David Hunt leaving his head coaching job at Pepperdine to be an assistant at Texas (I was saved by an insider that took mercy on me). So maybe I’m completely wrong about this. But to me she’s WAAAAAY too valuable a member of the team for Elliott to do anything to push her out. She just had an incredible experience winning a national championship. Why in the world would she pass on the opportunity to play another year and defend it? None of it makes sense to me other than the article got it wrong. But enough posts on volleytalk and you know we’ll get some kind of social media clarification about it. So I guess we’ll see. Madison Lilley and Gabby Curry both could have come back after winning a natty with almost literally the exact same team with a great chance at repeating but didn’t take it because they won one. Not saying Molly will do the same thing but there is precedent in elite players on natty winning teams not coming back Are we still claiming Kentucky has a natty? lol

Are we still claiming Kentucky has a natty? lol this seems like a trap. why wouldn't we claim that kentucky won a natty? the 2020 year didn’t count~ because *sad mumbling about how it wasn’t fair to whatever team I root for, when I absolutely would have said the natty counted if my team had won it* If I recall, the fact that there wasn’t a Big 10 or Pac 12 team in the championship was used to argue it wasn’t valid because it wasn’t fair that some conferences got fall seasons and some did. Of course, there weren’t any B1G or PAC teams in the final four this year either. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That AAS story about beach. It said something about Molly’s last hurrah being on the beach. Just bad reporting?

They won the National Championship that year I acknowledge, but it’s a different proposition to equate them to the rest in any other real sense. It’s difficult to make that distinction without appearing to diminish, but it is a clear distinction.
