I don't trust those Barnes passing numbers btw there's something up with the way they're associating her passes with her name; she was definitely better than that I want to rewatch tonight but that doesn’t seem right. She did have some lapses but it looked like she passed quite a bit of good passes IMO watching live.

Please don't break your arm patting yourself on the back for accuracy. That comment "Elliot should be fired" was about as wrong as you could be. the Elliot should be fired was a first of all a joke with you didn't seem to pick up on lmao, and it was only pertaining to the idea that texas can't beat mid level teams (lbsu) without Oneal, because they can. my post was literally defending texas against everyone saying they were down this year yet someone is still mad.... im convinced y'all choose to be mad before even reading posts at this point

Barnes and Wenaas's stats are weird bc of jersey numbers and stuff, but it looks like Barnes was 1.96 on 26 balls and Wenaas was 1.86 on 7 Halter passed a 2.77 on 27 balls and Akana passed a 2.75 on 4 balls, Skinner passed a 2.00 on 16 balls as a team Texas passed 2.19 and yall...for Minnesota: Landfair 1.7 on 57 balls, Wucherer 1.71 on 17 balls, Murr 1.69 on 8 balls as a team they passed a 1.75 - ouch Yeeeeesh… gonna do a lot of SR drills in practice before Sunday and hopefully figure our sh** out… Good call by Texas putting Barnes in the backrow this match, she really helped to stabilize the passing. Texas looked more like Texas this match than they did last weekend. Hats off to the Texas serving strategy but JC hats on to Cook for allowing Landfair to pass 57 balls??? That is not putting her in a position to be successful.

anyone able to find out how many bics landfair got? and how successful she was from there? I can't believe having her back there is more beneficial than even a mid DS at this point

I'm a GT fan. I'm indifferent to the animosity I've seen running between you and them. I can't remember you ever saying anything that made me mad, although I can recall you saying numerous things I regarded as foolish. Personally, I think if you put more thought into what you said up front, you'd have to spend far less time explaining yourself afterwards.

If Gray, our only other DS, was a better passer he would’ve put her in… our best passing option is on the bench until the stupid suspension is over so we may just have to tough it out until then 👎

I think Barnes' instinct is to take everything as that was her job at A&M-CC, whereas that's also probably what Halter is thinking as well lol They didn't have the spring to get acclimated to one another so I'm glad we saw major improvements from last weekend.

Honestly landfairs passing excluding the 7 aces on her wasn't that bad or at least comparable to skinners SR (but 7 reception errors.. yikes).. but where landfair was shanking things into the third row or under the net, skinner was at least keeping the ball in play.. a 1 pass is better than an ace I don’t think you can just throw 7 reception errors away and say but besides that she wasn’t bad ! Lol lol oh no she was so bad I am well aware but as a gopher fan I am just trying to cope leave me alone!

I think the sentence before that statement explained it pretty clearly. what I think is more important is that people dont assume or make conclusions without anything to support them, then I would have to spend less time explaining myself. if you or anyone else genuinely took that part of the post seriously I honestly have no idea what to say tp that, I thought we were a little more advanced on here but thats my bad. im not gonna go six press mode on my posts and write a novel to defend a one line, unserious remark. all respect to sixpress lol

But, in your head, it's everyone else's fault. SMH

Zeynep Palabiyik, a very promising libero from turkey who just joined the team. She signed with an agent before committing so she has to sit out 20% of the season (no one really knows the exact amount but that seems to be the consensus)

Well if you can stabilize the passing the front line can play with just about anyone. I do like Hanson as well, I like the early plan from the back row. Halfway through the first set I thought not her again😂
