If Pollmiller earns the starting job and keeps it, I hope Hunter red-shirts. Makes little sense to waste a year of eligibility just for the sake of gaining experience.

I would hope if all things being equal between the two that Kelly would get the nod. Hunter is the future of the volleyball team. I don't think Cook will red shirt her if Mary is the starter, he didn't last season and all Hunter got out of it was an injury and one wasted year of eligibility.

Did you mean to say you DO think Cool with red-shirt her if Mary is starting? I ask because your next comment seemed like an argument toward that end.

I don't think Cook will red shirt Hunter if she(Kelly) is not the starter. He did not red shirt Kelly last year under the same circumstances( Mary winning the starting spot). I realize it would be a luxury to have a back up like Kelly Hunter in case something happened to your starter but as I said before all Kelly got out of it was an injury and a wasted year of eligibility.

i personally think HUNTER is the girl to go with! She's Elite! I also liked these two new middles better. Larson and Kiel. Kiel is going to be an All American. She's solid. Larson has the All-American ability as well if they are granted the playing time. Nebraska might see some known stars not playing as much next season. Lots of talent on this team!

Any videos of Ostrander playing during the China trip? Cook says she is the most improved player on the team. Is she playing OH?

just scroll that video to 1:09:18 and you can see who should be starting setter and middle! That's one play. And on the play, Hunter nearly had a service error and on her next attempt DID have a service error. Mary was arguably the third best setting in what some would say is the best conference in the country. And third would be pretty impressive considering who #s 1 and 2 were/are. Look, I like Hunter. I went to dozens of her high=school matches. She has the tools to become an elite setter IMO. And maybe that potential will realize itself sooner that later. That would be awesome. However, if Mary earns the starting job this year, I really think it would be prudent to red-shirt Hunter so she will have 3 years of eligibility left once Mary graduates. Additionally, don't you think the poor connection Mary had with her MBs is a problem that was addressed and given a lot of attention toward correcting during the off-season? I think we all would do well to wait and see how much that work has paid off before we through her under the bus.

I think Pollmiller is still great! I thought her connection with the middles, the back setting, the slide, and even setting the RS were very problematic throughout the season. I don't know how much she has improved? I also thought she had ample time throughout the season to fix that. She struggled with the same issues in Tennessee. Mary has always been a good blocker. I certainly hope she has figured it out, because if not, Hunter is putting on the heat. I also agree, if he goes with Mary then red shirt Hunter!
I was stunned with the middle presence Nebraska had in this video posted, I saw nothing like this throughout the entire season last year. It gives Nebraska so many more options offensively. Kiel and Larson are going to really change Nebraska's middle issues in the coming years. They looked great working with Hunter. Very smooth and pretty to watch compared to last season.
