some of those arky numbers pop out. Texas will have to be ready.
speaking of arky, both soccer and vb will be in town for friday matches with Texas. i wonder if that's common or just a quirk
Most likely a quirk, but it is possible that it was requested.

Most likely a quirk, but it is possible that it was requested. And the SEC matched their football program's visit along with their volleyball team. Maybe to provide their volleyball team some fans? i.e. "Well our flight out of Austin isn't until Monday, so why don't we go to this volleyball game?"
I sold my spare tickets (to volleyball) on SeatGeek for a number I couldn't believe anyone in their right mind would pay. But I found a buyer!

They should have put "Hot to Go" as a soundtrack to this video.

Another totally unscientific viewpoint of Texas' schedule compared to our new SEC neighbors.
The last couple of games, some of the stats of the opposing teams look daunting. And then I said, "Well, the reason I included the schedule is so you can see against whom they've generated these stats, so far." Then I started thinking about how back-loaded some of the upcoming teams we play are. Then, I considered how heavily front-loaded JE has our team. Yes, there's the loss to (WTF!) Long Beach or this year's (WTF! WTF!) Miami. But looking ours and then looking at theirs, our stats are not as good, but our players sure got to see some tough competition in order to get them ready to steamroll through conference play. Also, the pre-season is what convinced JE to switch to a 6-2, something he told the reporters he's not a big fan of. So, I took the top 3 SEC teams and then looked at their non-conference schedules and then wrote down the current RPI of the teams we and they have played. Yes, I know. The volleyball RPI stat geeks will be all over me for using current RPI representation and not the "RPI when we played them" as the data point. So sue me! On this free fan forum.
The numbers for Arky and Auburn look so long because they played RPIs in the triple digits. A lot of them.
So, they beat up on below average teams and have great numbers because of it.

Hello Texas fans!
I’ll admit that I haven’t been following the team as close as I did last season but wanted to ask if Byrd was injured and where you think she falls in the depth chart when the big pin recruits from this next incoming class come in?
I assume the 6-2 is here to stay going into next season and with 3 starting pins graduating there has to be a decent amount of open room for all of them to compete for.

Whoa wtf lol I was asking a legitimate question, the claws were definitely retracted 😅😅😅
But yes I’m not one to shy away from confrontation when it’s presented to me.
But honestly I just wanna know if Byrd is injured. Helmers I feel like was recovering from something(idk if I’m remembering correctly), and idk if Tomkinson is there strength wise, so I just wanted to know if people project her that she slates into one of the open pin slots or are the incoming pins more likely to secure a spot?
There’s just a ton of talent on this team already when the seniors graduate so I have no idea where the current redshirt freshmen match up with the 2025 freshmen.

This is literally the only year I haven’t been watching them as closely, they are literally Top 3 all time favorite programs lol you are so weird. Also imagine blocking me, then commenting about how you have me blocked for no reason other than my name was mentioned. Like literally neither of you had to say anything, idk if you’re just being reactionary and defensive but nothing I asked was coming from a malicious place.
