August 31, 20232 yr Author Long Beach is playing an interesting tournament this weekend with UCLA, Washington and Indiana. Would be nice if they pick up some wins there
August 31, 20232 yr Did some searching, thought the event may have been free - wrong ! Scotty Mcreery concert after. Regardless, great even for WVB. Good article below. Tickets to the outdoor match will not be part of the Nebraska volleyball season-ticket package and must be purchased separately. Tickets will go on sale to the general public on Wednesday, April 26. A ticket will gain entrance to both volleyball matches and the concert. Tickets will be $25 for adults and $5 for high school age and under https://huskers.com/news/2023/2/24/volleyball-day-in-nebraska-coming-to-memorial-stadium

Not sure if 90K fans would have shown up without the concert following the match. I bet we could break 100K attendance for a womens soccer match if we played it in DKR and it was followed by a Taylor Swift concert.

September 1, 20232 yr Author Volleyball in Nebraska is not the same as at Texas. We’d be better off doing a big match in Moody, because we wouldn’t sell out half of DKR. And for a non-conference, the weather fucking blows in August/September.
September 1, 20232 yr Nebraska has a diehard fanbase that sucks at every sport except volleyball. It's their only outlet for success.

You might get 50k to fill out Hawaii’s football stadium but the state of Nebraska and volleyball is just different.

Maybe a bad rumor bc she apparently missed a lot of the national championship celebration yesterday. she’s starting. Phew Edited September 3, 20232 yr by Js1
September 3, 20232 yr Author 8-1 run puts us back into this match 9-1 and the lead. Both teams are out of TOs at 16-15 lol Edited September 3, 20232 yr by Js1
September 3, 20232 yr Author You can see our communication issues without Logan or Zoe. Constantly have 2 players going for the same ball and fucking everything up Someone needs to take control Edited September 3, 20232 yr by Js1
September 3, 20232 yr Author Ella needs to call some people off these balls. The communication errors are so amateur
September 3, 20232 yr Author We are going to have to have a lot of patience with this team. The setting and the communication is not up to Texas excellence

The communication errors are so amateur I think Emma and Ella will get better and more assertive as the season goes on. We have too many front row players trying to pass the ball that should be left to back row.
September 3, 20232 yr Their service errors are the only thimg keeping this respectable. And some of that comes along with tough aggressive serving but still....
September 3, 20232 yr Stanford is tall and damn good. Experienced team like we were last year, but man we look lost at times
September 3, 20232 yr 11:30am home opener. Stanford was ready for the challenge but we weren’t up for it
September 3, 20232 yr Texas looks frankly mediocre today. Stanford hasn’t even played all that excellent and is going to sweep us out of our own gym.
September 3, 20232 yr Skinner has been off all season and hit .083 today. Without her getting back to her old form this teams ceiling is pretty low.

She started slow last year as I recall too. But it’s definitely the setting. Swindle will grow and get better, but it’s going to be a “get hot by the end of the year” type thing

Swindle will grow and get better, but it’s going to be a “get hot by the end of the year” type thing I think that's been Skinner her entire career. Even at Kentucky. She struggles in non-conference play, gets better in conference play, and then is really good come tournament time. Kind of weird. I wonder what the cause is as there definitely seems to be a pattern.
September 5, 20232 yr Many many matches left to be played but at the beginning of this school year, if you would've told me that this team would not only lose these games but lose them looking like absolute dogshit, I would've said you are smoking crack. And yet, here we are. We need to get our shit together.
September 9, 20232 yr Author Including yesterday, Monday is the second in our five game homestand before we go to OU to start Big 12 play. FGCU - swept 3-0 Rice - 3-3 with a win over #22 USC, but also lost to ULL (0-3), Baylor (1-3) and Stanford (0-3) Ohio State - 3-3 and on a 3-game losing streak to ranked teams (1-3 and 1-3 to Georgia Tech and 0-3 to Stanford). They also play Oregon prior to us, so they could come in 3-4. Washington State - 8-1, with a 3-1 win over #8 BYU, but also lost 1-3 to #4 Louisville. Play Baylor before us Would be really nice to go 4-1 over the homestand and start Big 12 play 6-2. Washington State will be a big test. Edited September 9, 20232 yr by Js1
September 11, 20232 yr Author Texas moves up a spot to #6 ahead of Rice match tonight at 6pm. I believe we are the only D-1 team in action today. 1 Wisconsin 2 Louisville 3 Florida 4 Nebraska 5 Stanford 6 Texas 9 Minnesota 11 Washington State 12 BYU 18 Baylor 19 Ohio State 20 Kansas 22 Houston 23 Iowa State Schedule looks a little more stout and the Big 12 a little tougher - 6 teams ranked. 2 of our next 3 matches are against top 20 opponents. Edited September 11, 20232 yr by Js1
September 11, 20232 yr Author 25-21 Texas. 2-0 Rice is scrappy but we look not into this match. Except for Bergmark and our block
September 12, 20232 yr Author Weird sweep. -16, -21, -15 Skinner went off - hopefully gets her on track Ohio State/WSU back to back nights will feel like the tournament. Will be fun
