If Parra beats Texas I won’t be sad. I guess we found another Parra worshiper.

I'll be somewhat upset in a fan type of way if we lose to TCU in the regular season, though, Parra or no Parra. I do wish her success outside of that match (or matches - don't know how the schedule is going to look this season), however.

Also when it comes out of nowhere since there has been no discussion about Parra in weeks. If the football schedule is any indication, I will assume we will play the other Texas schools home and home. I'm assuming a 18 match conference schedule with 6 home and homes and 6 single match opponents. Would be difficult to do 20 matches since there will still be byes (thanks Okie State).

I can't speak to his motivation, but TCU was mentioned in terms of a slate of beach volleyball matches followed by an indoor spring game. Parra won't be participating, apparently, but he might not have caught that. But that's speculation on my part. I just know I have a special antagonism towards tristen for what I perceive as stupidity that I don't share towards diggerdive.

Sometimes I think to myself that I would be happy a whole lot of the time if I were both a Nebraska and a Texas fan. Not sure such a thing is legal, surely that violates the unspoken rules of college volleyball. If the program is actually turning around from not caring about the backrow though (my words, not theirs) which is a part of the game I love to watch, they become a much more appealing team to me. I would like to visit Austin sometime, I'm young and it seems like a cool city. Not at that point yet but maybe someday lmao. This is also likely me just sick of losing to Wisconsin so they've overtaken the Longhorns in my "I hate you" column. Austin is a great city - though it's night and day compared to much of the rest of the state. If you do go, don't think the rest of Texas is as cool - it's not.

I caught on Twitter that LHN was playing a slew of Texas VB games today leading up to the special at 6:00. Just checked and it was the near end of the OU game and then they have @kansas and home against Baylor before the special.

Does anybody know any free sites that stream longhorn network? They don't exist. Spend a few bucks like the rest of us have to do.

I will not stand for this Htown disrespect the houston museum of fine arts is world class Shoot, so is the Menil. Then you have the Orange Show on the other side of the spectrum. But honestly, Texas is a vast state with a lot of coolness. I love this state. So glad I was born here, as opposed to my sister whose first 6 weeks were spent in North Dakota after being born at the Air Force base. She’s no native. Take pride in your North Dakotan heritage and quit glomming off a pretend Texas background, sis!

Forget about it. Not to mention the entirety of Big Bend National Park if we're talking all of Texas.
