    We'll honor E-Bay as our only senior on Wednesday so I thought it would be cool to start a tribute for her here. She has such a great attitude and hustles more than any other player on the team. Her work ethic is incredible in practice, on the floor or in the weight room. She has muscles on her muscles.

    Her folks have been wonderful coming to games to support her and the team and I'll miss them as well. We wish her well as she moves on from UT. I'll cry when we say adios.

    Way to go E-Bay!! [​IMG]

    What an AWESOME lock-down defender she is....

    And, she has been a very positive influence on the team...encouraging others, laughing, but taking her job seriously.

    And she is genuinely a nice person as well....her folks, Ernie and Cheryl, did a great job with this young lady...

    Yes, I will miss her, for sure...thanks for starting this post for her!!

    I hope she runs around the stands to say goodbye like Stacy Stephens did!!

    On my file cabinet at work are just a few action photos cut out of the Statesman. E bay is in evey one! She's leaping up (often higher than the head of the person who's trying to shoot), she scrabbling on the floor, she's hanging tough on the defense. I'll really miss you, E-bay, and all your energy. Here's hoping for a GREAT ending to your final season at UT. [​IMG]

    Tremendous energy and a great attitude. Have so much enjoyed watching E-Bay for the past four years. Would have been interesting to see how she would have developed under Coach G on the offensive end for four years. BEST OF LUCK and THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR EFFORTS!!!

    I am proud to have a picture on the wall of our breakfast area of E-Bay and myself. She and her parents are FIRST CLASS FOLKS! I am really glad she elected to attend UT Austin.

    Seems like only yesterday that I saw Ebay on her recruiting visit and met her the next summer. Time has flown and Ebay has given us some wonderful memories. I love watching her encouraging her teammates and hustling all over the floor during games and in practices (when they were open). It's been wonderful watching her reaction when she sinks a three this season.

    Best wishes for your future endeavors, Ebay. Don't forget to come back and visit the Forty Acres once in a while. [​IMG]

    For those who didn't see the game, E-Bay did the neatest thing just at end game. She ran to center court, dropped to the floor, and did a push up movement while kissing the Longhorn emblem on the floor. It was over in a minute. In her post game interview she said she REALLY loves Texas.

    And Texas REALLY loves E-Bay.

    Her Dad nearly missed the pregame tribute to her. They called her Mom down and Dad was nowhere in sight. Mom became more and more concerned waiting on the court and then at the last minute, Dad appeared. The world needs more people like the Balieys! We will miss you and your daughter.

    Hope these little vignettes are of interest to those out on the internet. [​IMG]

    They mentioned the pushup and kiss at center court on the radio. I've been waiting for a picture to surface.

    Does anyone have a picture?
