If you go into her posts, the first post is a video of a volleyball player, Karlie McNabb, from Loyola University, who tells a little bit of her story. I have tears streaming down my face. It's really short. Just a nice story about a young lady's transformation in the healing power of her team and her sport, and how she approaches it differently now. I'm not quite sure how to share the link, but it was just a nice little feature. Also, I'm digging Michella Chester's burnt orange pants. She gives us so much love it's not even funny. I also think she's very pretty. I think the amount of grief she receives on volleytalk is hilarious. To me it always feels like she's doing her job, which is not to be correct, but to create engagement. That's cool and all but look at her DOG http://instagram.com/p/CU5SA9WLrJS eeeeeeeeeeeeeee That’s a ridiculously adorable dog. Look at that smile! Hamming it up for the camera.

Ok can I pose something that's both brave and controversial? Lol
Let me preface by saying that I absolutely LOVE Gregory. It was there that I was able to grow as a player and learn how to actually play volleyball. It holds a special place in my heart. With that being said, it's a fact that Texas has some of the best athletic facilities that a school has to offer. Pretty much all of our facilities have received upgrades or even new facilities within the last several years. Ideally, I would love to see something happen that could potentially increase the attendance closer to 7k, as I'm sure our fans would be able to consistent fill it up. If something were to happen, would folks prefer to see a completely new Gregory Gym or a renovation of the existing structure? I know with the latter, the Greg is already and extension of the Rec Center so construction could get tricky. I also wouldn't want a new facility that's not in the center of campus.
Thoughts?!

I literally don't know how we could possibly squeeze more seats into Gregory. We don't even have room for a better scoreboard. I believe the school of social work is being relocated to create indoor practice areas for the football team, dunno if VB is going to benefit from any of that additional space

As much as I like Nebraska's stranglehold on attendance, Texas having a mega arena would be great for the sport.
The equivalent of what Nebraska did would have been to convert the Erwin Center to a volleyball facility but it looks like they're demolishing it. How old is the Rec Center? Is that due for an upgrade?

I think having it off campus would be great with better parking, upgrades, and more seats but also the student attendance may take a hit since it's right in the heart of campus. Anyways, this team deserves a bigger arena. The game and exposure is just getting bigger and bigger.
