I think Kelly admitted that in the post game presser, actually. He sure did. My question is did cook watch how they served us off the court Thursday and think - We’re better defensively than Wisconsin. They won’t be able to do that to us. I would be extremely surprised. Cook hasn't won 4 NCAA championships because he doesn't learn from others mistakes...

Anyone have a time machine that could send me to the parallel world where Tennessee won that Texas matchup? I wanna see what happened. I like our chances of being national champs if that happens. Sports is like that. Some moments have long lasting impacts.

Wow. Hats off to Texas. Not a consolation but at least we took set two from them? I dunno that I’ve seen a team dominate like that at the end of a season. Well I guess we can say we are #2? Long Beach State was the first team to beat Texas this season so they get first dibs.

She also claimed that Charlie was coming in the spring....and as we all know that was proven false right after so yeah, I'll believe it when I see it.

Smrek all tournament team. Anna was the only bright spot in that Thursday debacle. I am glad we have one more season with her. I hope she and Charlie can connect early and start working on set placement.

I think that more speaks to VBDiva’s ability to assess the players than have insider tea. I’m hoping we don’t see anyone leave this year, but we’re in the last year of the COVID seniors so the portal is going to be insane 😞

If it’s all true there will be two bingos and two departing. I think big bingos was the phrase. But yeah let’s just wait to see. I don’t want to lose anyone either but hopefully it’d be from area of depth and bingos for area of most need. Actually, hopefully just the bingos

Well I guess we can say we are #2? Long Beach State was the first team to beat Texas this season so they get first dibs. I'd think the last to beat Texas gets dibs. So K-State is #2. (it's not horseshoes, ignore the Tennessee noise) Wazzu #3, LBSU #4 (Stanford's earlier win was negated). Then go down the list of everyone who beat K-State next, which will take a while

2 unexpected departing seems a whole lot to me....

I don't want us to pick up anyone in the portal except maybe a backup setter or a libero if one becomes available. We're going back to the 5-1, that is a given. Sarah and Anna have the OH1 and Opposite positions locked down. The logical thing is to move Devyn back to middle and have Julia and Ella compete for the OH2 position. I would love to see Carter and Devyn running slides like O'Neal did for Texas (or Dana did for us). If Ella wins the OH2 position, keep Julia as the libero and let GG, Saige, Lola and Maile battle it out for playing time as the DS. As much as I love CC for everything she brings to the table, I think she is the odd player out - she will be the back-up MB and perhaps a serving specialist. I don't like losing CC's blocking ability but Devyn can improve there and just has more to offer offensively.

Stop being weird mister I dress up in badger gear at 50+
