    Louisville's coach Dani Busboom Kelly is attempting to become the 1st female volleyball coach to win the NCAA title and ending Coach Wise's quest for being 1st. Coach Wise is much more deserving of this accolade. I usually cheer for whoever's playing Texas, but not this time. Hook 'em Horns!

    Do you think it is because of Birdie? They seem to be very close.

    Something must have happened. She did the post game with Mary Wise after the Pitt loss and talked about the future looking good for the team.

    I have spoken with the president of the Attack Club and a board member and they knew nothing about it. I have a message for another one.

    Texas swept Louisville.

    Slightly incorrect info. Beason is only a sophomore.

    She was captain of the team as a sophomore, arguably the best player and she leaves. This should not happen. In my opinion college sports are trending downhill.

    Do you have any idea why? I have talked to some people supposedly in the know, and they have no clue. In fact, I was the one that told them she was leaving.

    So is anyone trying to get her to change her mind? She’s so good in so many ways!
