Nebraska gets 2 more years of Lexi Sun. Do you think she will win a championship with Nebraska? 2020

Do you think she will win a championship with Nebraska? Hard to say . 2020 after Plummer and Hentz leave.

2020 after Plummer and Hentz leave. Minnesota and Wisconsin will also be really, really good that year. Could be another year where the big ten goes 1-2-3

If I had to pick a top setter in the country for my 2019 volleyball team, HAMES top of my radar. If you had to pick an all star team for 2019, you would have hames eat them over Hilley, lilley, gray?

I was not saying hames is a bad player at all to clear things up. I just don’t think, besides her defense, in a setting sense she does anything really special. She ran a really high ball offense that was not complex at all. She didn’t make these crazy sets to get 1 on 1s. She got the ball to the hitters but reminded me of Hannah Allison from Texas. Just made really easy highball sets. Hames is a good player and doesn’t hold Nebraska back in any way... but I don’t think she propels them forward either.

Nicklin could have been back up at start of season; if NCAA hadn't messed up Brooke; holding her back after her transfer! JMHO No. Just no. In the first place; I said JMHO (IN MY Humble Opinion) What is it you don't understand about that! In the second place; everybody was yacking about how Cook doesn't start true freshmen setters! In the third place; as good as Nicklin was; she would have won the starting job quickly! Also Brooke was a very good setter as I saw no big drop off when went in for a bit! I was glad we had her as a backup! Sorry; I didn't intend to Ruffle your feathers! GO HUSKERS

Gray is much for fine tuned than hames at this point. Hames ran a slower offense. But she ran good tempo balls toward the end of the season. She will be quite elite her senior year if she pushes herself hard. Lilley and Hilley haven't set their teams up to win big matches in the ncaa tournament. Gray most definitely has, as has Hames. You dont always have to look the part, you gotta win big matches in pressure situations. Hames ran two 5 setters in the final 4 and she ran some pretty clean offenses. Hames will run a much quicker offense next season. I'd want her on my team as a recruiter. But Hilley and lilley are pretty awesome as well. I just like hames' defense and calm demeanor and how she handles pressure. I'm not saying Hames is a first team calibur setter right now. I'm saying she is well on her way though and she is trending.

Personally I saw a huge drop off from Nicklin to Brooke. I would describe Brooke as "serviceable", as opposed to "very good". Not intended as a knock on Brooke, just my opinion.

Any insider scoop whether Kenzie K is in the same ballpark athletically as Kenzie M, in terms of metrics? Kinda seems like she has a shot. How bout Megan? At any rate, Nebraska will be super fast again in the backcourt. It may be awhile til we see the combined skill level of Anni, Kenzie and Sidney in the back court but this year's Huskers will likely have better range.

Wasn't kenzie maloney one of the most athletic, if not the most athletic player to play at nebraska according to John Cook? Plus didn't she have the higest jump, etc on the team?

Knuckles appears plenty athletic. Not sure if she'll be a 1,000-point scorer in Athletic Performance Testing as a freshman like Maloney was, but physically she appears to be ahead of your typical freshman.
