Novice VB poster here: what VB specific facility does Texas use? The old Gregory Gym?
From what I remember, Gregory is not VB specific. Rather, it's their old basketball court and is part of the recsports facility. Although highly renovated over the years, Gregory's ancient structural components remind me of DeWare's old BB court.

Some risk in that she has not been a HC before, but her recruiting skills, ability to help raise a program, and competitiveness seem like a breath of fresh air needed by the program.
I actually like that she's never been a head coach. The proven championship caliber coaches out there worth hiring (John Cook, John Dunning and Rose Rose) were not going to leave their current gigs for Aggieland unless we Jimbo Fisher style cash whipped them...which VB revenues would never justify.
For those of us who have been long-term Aggie VB fans, it's easy to remember how dismal KU had been until Laura Kuhn arrived. Then, Ray Bechard suddenly goes from relative obscurity in his first 13- years as a D1 VB HC to 4- time B12 "Coach of the Year", B12 Champion, perennial VB powerhouse and a final 4 VB team.
IMHO, this looks like the best VB hire in the nation this year.
