Ok, so 3 of the 4 I recognize. I'm not familiar with Reagan Rutherford. Is she a transfer?

What happen to that Tennessee team that almost beat us in NCAA’s last year? Ranked 5th in the SEC this year?? Did they lose a lot from last years team??

Likely.

Yes a whole lot, 4 of their 7 starters graduated (OH, MB, RS and Libero). Most importantly, the right side that tore us up is gone! The other OH transferred to Georgia to play her Covid year there. They only return their setter and one middle blocker. They did pick up a "top" transfer, OH Hayden Kubik, from Nebraska. You'll remember her very, very briefly from the national championship match when she subbed in to address Nebraska's awful passing and then she immediately got stuff blocked and went right back to the bench.

Wow...that non-conference schedule is WICKED.

 

[flash34]

Anybody go to exhibition? And want to share any observations?

They are waiting until after the match today.

Wow...that non-conference schedule is WICKED.

I would have thought there would a second exhibition as well to prepare for the onslaught.

 

[Sangre Naranjada]

How does our having a second exhibition help our opponents prepare for the onslaught of having us on their schedule?

I don't know everything about this team, but I do know that if Texas can't sweep UTSA all the remaining non-conf matches would be L's. Except possibly Cougar High.

And why are we going to Wacko to play Bailor OOC? Seems dumb to be giving them Texas revenue. How did it even get scheduled when Texas announced the move to the SEC? And to a lesser extent Cougar High, but maybe that was scheduled before they joined the B12 and didn't get taken off.

 

[mchammer]

Agreed - the Baylor match should have been an exhibition match a week from now.

 

[mchammer]

Okay, I see there is an Orange and White game this weekend.

My prediction for this season is mudhole.
