I knew Stanford would bounce back after that 3-0 loss to Florida. I'd love to see more action from the middles, both teams are lacking in that position, too many balls to the pin hitters and way too much tipping over.
people need to realize that Texas has a true freshmen setter and lost a lot of key players from last year. It’s going to take a minute for this team to mesh well. We lost one of our captains and player of the year, Logan Eggleston, a great middle in Kayla Caffey and our star libero Fleck. Setter and libero are the key players on each team. Setter runs the offense, libero runs the defense. The issue that Texas is having tho is that Swindle is not that aggressive go getter setter and Halter isn’t vocal in the back court. The issue with this team right now is leadership. If Halter can be more vocal and aggressive in the back row, and also be the libero that WANTS to get every ball, the back row will be a lot more solid. If Swindle can be better at being more consistent with her setting and also a little more deceptive, she’s gonna be so good especially with her height. Skinner also needs lot of work on her defense and passing. I know Texas probably won’t do it, but I think they should try running a 6-2. I don’t think Swindle is experienced enough to be on the court all 6 rotations and at least with a 6-2 they’ll have front row options all the time. They have so many weapons on the pins that they should utilize them.
I think this will be a rollercoaster ride this season…some great wins and some terrible losses…gotta work on the chemistry and the little things that wins games…they can either make a playoff push and maybe win it all or lose in the first round…
well it is, what it is!.. oglivie had also updated her serving. if texas coach had at least prepared his freshmens etc last year. they would of been better.. texas recruiting rather have hitters instead of all around players.. devin still has that mentality to hit hard off the block instead of working around or using the block.. ball distribution, errors, recives etc
Stanford just lost 3-0 so I did not think they had a shot…then again I look at the stats for the stanford-florida game and it didnt look like they played bad
Dude … what is this Texas team?????? That setter needs to get comfy bc she seems scared to play. They lack communication but I think they can make a great comeback throughout the season!!! This will be an interesting season to say the least ….
This loss is majorly on skinner and wenaas. Skinner doesnt know the difference between smart and aggressive. Both OH are so uncreative. The Fr setter is trying with all the crap passes she gets. So much for a go to player, you can as well field an All Freshman team if upperclass cant step up. Stop blaming the setter only
Texas got embarrassed at home! They played like a highschool team! Just out of system , sluggish and slow! It’s like they didn’t even practice during the off season! This is gonna be a tough season for them! Every team came back hungry this year but Texas look like they coasted & it’s upsetting to watch from the supporters pov! This team looks undisciplined! Swindle is setting the ball way too low this is Collegiate ball not HS! The connection isn’t there! She seems so scared and not ready for D1 ball! It doesn’t seem like they have a leader and they need one fast! Someone needs to step up!
Texas needs a new setter. WTF is this tall setter doing majority of the time? She's literally so predictable that Standford is literally putting up 3-man block! YOU CANNOT let a team disrespect you by putting up 3-man block! That's when you know your setter is literally predictable to the point that the other team KNOWS who you going to set. OH come on, what an embarrassment. Texas is done. I bet they were happy that their setter is "tall", but didn't calculate that she isn't GOOD.
My god, she is a freshman. As a Wisconsin fan I have to say the talk aimed at an 18 year old woman playing in her 4th college match is quite appalling. She is a very good setter but very much still getting to know her team... and she wasn't even their biggest problem today. The Stanford 3-man block is actually something they used in past years and against anyone, no matter what another team's setter is/was doing.
@@tennparker1 Why are you using "She is a freshman" as an excuse? I have seen freshmen played way better than her and they aren't even top recruiting setters. The thing you got to understand (which you clearly don't and making excuses as if that would help her) is that she is a starting setter for Texas. Clearly you don't know what a "starter" is. When you're a starter, you cannot be worse than your second-string setter sitting on the bench. Like I said, REPLACE this setter because she is bad.
@@kiaram8688 Exactly. If you want to play at a high level as a D1 setter, you need to play like one. Freshmen should NOT be an excuse. I don't get why people say that. It's like giving her an excuse that she sucks? lol
I said that same thing. She needs more practice and not be a starter.ijs But let's be patient, maybe, just maybe she'll get better... who's the leader on this team... C'MON Ms O'Neal.

totally agree
Let’s goooooo Stanford!

I can‘t defend Texas anymore…
😭😭😭😭I’m cryinggg
Hey guys this is not last year's team...we will get better by playoff time. Don't give up yet.Pls
YOURE THE BEST

Kami needs to set the pipe more!
Missing Melanie 😢
Texas volleyball is so centered around big hitters but doesn’t focus on the passing n defensive part of the game n well you see the results

Yeah that's the difference between her and Avery

Rewatching before the 2023 Regional Rematch 😭😭😭
the barnes ds is so mid. i feel like jenna wenaas should play back row and at least swindle will have another setting option
Chin up Texas. The easy part of your schedule is coming (the entire Big 12).

@@tennparker1being a freshman isn’t really an excuse. Look at Alexis Stucky from Florida her freshman year (last year)
They have Marina Crownover, a sophomore. Maybe they should try her

Gotta make some changes to that defensive line. Just awful out of system.
Texas liberal and #12 looks like diligent, but way slow…
Im seing another Ashley Shook in Ella Swindle. Really bad setter 😅
I said that same thing. She needs more practice and not be a starter.ijs But let's be patient, maybe, just maybe she'll get better... who's the leader on this team... C'MON Ms O'Neal.
We'll may have lost at home, but so did Stanford.
@@marthajones7788the difference is that Stanford had good stats, they just need to work on their serving
@@kiaram8688 well we got a wake up call. But I'm still believing we can be a contender.
She does set in a similar way as ashley shook, it looks messy and off but the hitters can score some balls
It’s early.
Wrong score . Stanford gave ove two points
Isn’t Texas #7?! Lol
the setter wtf😭😭😭😭
#1?
