video of the 2023 texas athletics town hall...it first starts out with that cool video on texas athletics watched that last night. i had no idea Texas was 60-40 women. that difference seems huge and i'm curious why. are men no longer applying? or are female candidates simply better choices irregardlesspectively?

I believe there is a gender disparity in favor of women at the college level everywhere, not just UT. At least in terms of enrollment (as opposed to graduation).

not gone to college for sundry reasons and stuff
(i'm super clever)

So I was having a debate yesterday with my friend. Out of curiosity, where would y’all rank the 2022 team in terms of best teams to come through the university of Texas. He believes this was the best team to ever play at Texas and although they didn’t win the championship I still believe the 2009 team was the best to do it with the 2022 team being right behind. It doesn’t feel like much of a debate. I’m not sure how Elliott ever concocts a better roster than last year for as long as he’s coaching. the 5th year has shown to be huge for a lot of players. eggleston, fleck, skt all looked better in their 5th year than any other year, which makes sense. I agree with you unless he's able to put something like that together in 2024 with the last group of covid players but thats a slim chance considering he'll need at least like 4 open scholarhips and would have to rely on elite players to enter, and that number was far down this year compared to last

Sight unseen, of course, if the recruits on the roster live up to their hype/potential, he could have another super team on his hands without needing to slice and dice transfers by the time 2024 rolls around. Especially if he gives the younger players substantial experience off the bench.

The exact number mentioned by CDC (in reference to Title IX) is 56% women.

I dont think skinner/ wenaas in 2024 is gonna outdo skinner/eggleston from 2022. neither of the other two are going to be able to match the scoring ability of eggleston imo, especially in tough situations. I also dont think halter or akana will be very close to 5th year fleck by next year. texas will be incredibly fortunate if sophomore swindle is as good as 5th year skt. I could see Devin being an upgrade for philips but not by a lot. Oneal / caffey I feel like is going to be better duo than what texas puts together in 2024. all of this is barring any big transfers of course its not impossible, but id be shocked if they're better in 2024 than they were in 2022 with the predicted roster, mostly because of experience. I feel like serving / offense / and blocking would not be as good just looking at personnel. they'll be insane still cause its texas, but I dont think they'd compete with the 2022 team, I can only think of about 3-4 ncaa teams ever that would

I agree it’s a slim chance to create a team as good or better than 2022. What I was trying to say is if the staff is able to do so, I don’t necessarily think they’d have to reach into the portal like ‘22 with the talent already on the roster. That is if the holes at middle and RS live up to their hype. Lots of ifs, but I’m not disagreeing. The 2022 team was one for the ages.

A roster with not enough talent won't be a problem for texas anytime soon lol

Maybe homer mentality, but I think it’s certainly possible. Very very possible.

Asjia, Mari, and Jordyn sitting together cheering on basketball. It’s so nice to see the team hanging out outside of practice and games.
It also looks like Asjia’s enjoying her last, extra year of college. You go girl
