As most on here can tell I am a UK Volleyball fan. I love going to the matches and get a lot of entertainment from watching them play.Obviously, Kentucky isn't a traditional powerhouse and struggles on the national scene. I'd like to read opinions from Volleytalk board members on the 2015 season. We return Second team All-American Setter Morgan Bergan, Kazmeir Brown who was selected on the Jr. National Team, and Anni Thomisson who is the team's best athlete. We also have coming in Brooke Morgan a top ten High School player and Olivia Dailey as back up Setter. I, myself, believe that Coach Craig Skinner has assembled his best talented team for this upcoming season.

Still a top 5, love me some Tyler Ulis.

Replacing Knapper and O'Connor will be difficult. O'Connor was not spectacular, but she was steady and took a lot of pressure swings. And Knapper was the definition of steady - great serve receive. Obviously KY is loaded in the middle; the question I have is whether the passing will allow them to use it as much as last year. Lots of talent in the program, though.

As long as you guys can push my Gators so we are better in post season, that's all I care about.

Kentucky has been kind of an interesting program for the past several years. The past 3 years, they were the seeded team. However, 2 of those 3 years, they were knocked out of the NCAA tournament in the second round by an unseeded team.
The three years before that, they made it to the regional semifinals 2 times, upsetting the seeded team in the second round.

So how did Brooke Morgan do? It looks like she played OH? She was on the right for the match against MSU. From what I recall, about what you'd expect from a highly talented freshman. Some really nice plays mixed in with a couple rookie mistakes. She'll be good. Her clubmate Kaz Brown was in BEAST mode though.

UK has a great chance to suprise and beat USC. As well as the WoT played last weekend, it was at home and I don't think they have figured everything out yet, too many new players ( freshmen at that too). UNC and BYU scored strings of points against them by serving tough and picking up blocks.

Kaz Brown will be difficult to contain but I see Bricio and Abercrombie having a field day with UK's pin blockers.
