Thanks for everything the past 4 years, Lexi!

Oh Caffey saying she hasn't decided yet for next year....I'm intrigued. You know, having Caffey back might make for better Volleyball next year, but at some point the kids that have been recruited will not want to wait any longer and will just enter the portal and go. Caffey will be 25 next fall…I think her time as a college volleyball should come to a glorious end this December. We have 2 young (Meyer, Gray) MBs on the roster this fall, and one and maybe 2 coming in next fall (Allick, Mendelson). All of this and I haven’t even mentioned Callie-who I would not complain if she returned because she has never used a redshirt year. We’ll see how it goes. . . 🏐 while you make valid points, I still am in favor for the better volleyball you mentioned with her coming back. Gray has not even seen the floor, Allick has a good ranking but we all know that doesn't always pan out and even if it does she's a freshman, and Mendelson has yet to decide if she even wants to come to NEB. If kids want to enter the portal and go rather than fight for a spot, by all means... I don't think it would be difficult for NEB to find replacements. You know, like Holman and Caffey...

I couldn't help but notice the matter of fact way Kayla mentioned that her training at her previous school wasn't all that great. I'm glad she was honest about that without coming off snarky.

The Haggerty sisters were three top level volleyball players. Among them, they won one national championship in 2015, Meghan's junior year at Nebraska. Her sister Maddie joined Nebraska in 2014 but left after one year. Their sister Molly was committed to come to Nebraska, but decided to go to Wisconsin.
If all three girls had played four years at Nebraska, two would have been on the 2015 team and two would have been on the 2017 team.
In 2018, Nebraska lost the national championship game to Stanford in five games. They lost the first set by two points and the fifth set by three points.
Your question for the day: If Molly Haggerty had been on the 2018 team, do you think Nebraska would have won the national championship?

She could have likely beat out either of the two non-Foecke pins for a starting spot. But we almost got the job done with Lexi and Jazz. So who knows? Coin flip. Nebraska played well that day, that Stanford team was phenomenal.

Your question for the day: If Molly Haggerty had been on the 2018 team, do you think Nebraska would have won the national championship? well if Molly was on the 2016 team, I really think they would’ve won the championship. We needed another terminal pin, and Malloy just really couldn’t be relied on to terminate. Tbh with another terminal OH like Molly, Nebraska realistically had a shot at winning 4 in a row from 2015-2018 (not saying they would, but I genuinely think they snatch one of Stanford’s in 2016 or 2018). With her, maybe they don’t play with the chip on their shoulder in 2017 had they won in 2016. But her senior year with Stanford being so good in 2019 would’ve been too hard to win, especially without Foecke. Also just a clarification, 2015 was Meghan’s senior year. Lol kind of a fun “what if” to think about.

Sun hit for about the same hitting percentage, but had almost 1 kill/set more.

But if OP was referring to just having the 2018 version of Molly that Wisconsin had, then no I wouldn’t think Nebraska would’ve won unless she played far above her average that match.

Anyone else a little surprised there isn't a similar salute from Stivrins?

That was a really really REALLY good Stanford team.
