None of us are million dollar coaches, but you have 2 practices and a rest day before Indiana. What do put your focus on over the next two days? We don’t have unlimited time to regroup, so what’s the 1,2,3? 1. MBs tooling the block 2. Madi connection 3. Reagan connection |

it's not the end of the world or the season...things will get better & lots of stuff to figure out & work on...hook'em -staying in that #1 spot is a lot of pressure -also minny should be good this season I wouldn't be surprised if Minnesota finishes above Wisconsin, everybody's healthy, their new littles are good, the middles are very good. Although *what* is with Turkish liberos jumping on people |

We don’t have unlimited time to regroup, so what’s the 1,2,3? I really think it needs to be on OOS termination. We've got REALLY nice digs (not always the best passes, but I feel like you take that on digs), but when the second contact isn't the setter, we need to make better plays on the ball. Block coverage. Serving pressure with consistency. Passing - but then also setters need to be bettering the ball. With less pressure on doubles, I think this is an absolute. |

Buried deep in a downloadable PDF is the all time record of UT volleyball vs any school. This fact book is only updated at the end of the year and so this the alltime record against Minnesota:
Last Texas win Last Opp Win Ho Aw Neu Total
Minnesota Aug. 29, 2023 (3-1) Sept. 8, 2017 (3-1) 4-2 2-2 2-1 8-5
I know that in the late 2010's, McCutcheon was loading up on recruits and they were big and tall and it was always scary going up against them and we were in the "friend" rotation with them.
But then at one point, even though he had those high ranked recruits, he just couldn't beat us the last couple of years he coached. So, I relaxed my concern and then the old "tough block" Minnesota showed up. And also we beat them August 2023, so that had something to do with it.
Maybe the new-ish coach is the deciding factor.

Am I healed from the loss? No. Is volleybae 2.0 making me dinner to cheer me up? Yes. Will it help? To be determined.

ASSISTS (Through 2 games)
Carlson 67
Swindle 22
Halter 8
Ames 5
Akana 3
I think this illustrates two things
1. Ayden being 4th in assists is funny to me
2. With the amount of secondary setting opportunities we had, Halter and Akana should have more assists.
