Hames has one of the longest leashes I can recall, which must say as much about Evans and Orr at the moment as her. at the moment I think it says more about the staff than Evans or Orr this is the same staff that went with Batenhorst for way too long (yes I know its john cook, i dont see whats in practice, blah blah i dont care lol)

I disagree that he would intentionally send a message to her through the media. Would he look her in the eye and say what’s on his mind? Yes. Could it be that he felt having one on one’s or even calling out her level of play in practice wasn’t getting them anywhere? Simply speculating. Maybe he felt making a public statement about the situation and how it was evolving was his next option. It’s a back-handed compliment to be sure, but at least in this tiny sample size it’s working better than whatever private conversations they’ve had this season. I just don’t see it. He doesn’t have a history of doing that, he does however have a history of not always choosing his words wisely which I think was the case here. Again, I don’t think what he said was awful, more unnecessary IMO. They’ve got bigger issues

And yeah rightfully so, but he rarely criticizes Hames. Unlike others 😁

Post game Cook said OSU played well and NE not so much. Did mention the 11 service errors as a problem. He also said it was a long road trip and NE needed to get home to practice. Lauren Cook West said the team has been dealing with health issues, i.e. the flu.

Sorry if this has been discussed before (I don't regularly read this thread), but why does NE set Knuckles in the back row? I mean, it's really cool that she can hit from back there, being a former libero and all, but she rarely seems to terminate. It's hard to believe that sending her a few balls back there every set is keeping the opposing defense off guard that much...
This is not a knock on Knuckles personally. I'm just wondering strategy wise.

I'm just wondering strategy wise. It gives Nebraska a different look and a decent option. They go to her a lot when the outside off blocker takes the first ball or on a scramble play. I feel like recently Nicklin’s been unnecessarily setting her too much though.

I did not intend to throw a cold, wet blanket here and apologize for coming off preach-y. please bear with me: I studied mythology as an undergrad: the clash of sky god tribes & cultures vs earth goddess cultures one is more acquisitive, the other more nurturing for one time is linear, the other cyclical it is facile but you might distill as male energy vs female energy. But really... we are all one family in countless subgroups nations, races, cultures, states, political parties, nuclear & extended families etc. We root for our teams and identify with them and we reflect their culture. I earned a Master's degree in Family Therapy in the 80s My internships included sessions with parents & siblings of schizophrenic patients. At that point in time there were studies that identified high levels of "expressed emotion" as a contributing detrimental factor en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expressed_emotionHigh EE is not helpful, generally, in maintaining emotional balance in all kinds of family groups...and a volleyball squad is certainly a family group. I know nothing about Tyler. But he and JC's nonverbals raise my hackles. And I see that EE bleed into the game threads on VT. Does behavior that maintains your own personal balance (homeostasis) negatively affect those around you? I am an accomplished tournament bridge player... way up there in terms of accrued 'points'. I was never an easy partner because I would nonverbally AND unfortunately sometimes verbally be abusive to my partner and others. I have worked pretty hard to rein in my bad behavior, which, at its core, is selfish (self-regulation). I heard the Dalai Lama in Mpls maybe 20 years ago. From that experience I distilled a mantra One World - One Family - Warm HeartNow, more than EVER, with our only home (Earth) at risk, we need a big dose of Warm Heart = Compassion shared among and between those subgroups mentioned upthread there I go preaching again. I do not intend to get further involved in NE's coaching ethos or any back & forth here. Our future is at stake. What are we doing to insure there will be one? Did you gloss over the mantra? Take a few moments and turn off your judging brain to let it sink in.

Am late to the party again. Why doesn't Cook do press conferences anymore? Last one on Husker website was Sept 9th.
