Hord on Nebraska Volleyball: “I think it’s a great place to fall back in love with the sport.” Preach, Kaitlyn!! Honestly, stuff like this makes me happy to hear when you think about how difficult being a student athlete is, and especially in the last few years. Hope she has a rewarding season.

I think Kenzie and Lexi might be captains? (Kenzie's IG) That would surprise me. I would have guessed that Madi would be a captain.

More of a lead by example, be the backbone of the team type. If it turns out she isn't a captain, I wouldn't be totally surprised.

I'm surprised you guys don't think of Nicklin as a captain. I'd say Nicklin or Nicklin/Kenzie. Madi and Lexi's time will come.

Will they be streaming the scrimmage? BTN+ I always subscribe the day of the red-white scrimmage to the single school monthly package and then cancel after football/vball season is up. It’s worth the $20 to me to get 6-10 more games. Next year I’m going to have subscribe to Peacock for the season as well. Now that’s annoying. Is the $20 for Just the regular Big Ten Network? Or for BTN+? Also how do I get BTN? I have Hulu and so think last season I added it on during the tournament because most games were uploaded to YouTube afterward but I think that won’t be happening as much this season since the R/W Match has not been uploaded.

BTN+ is $10 a month (if you only want Nebraska) or $15 (if you want all of Big Ten volleyball). BTN+ matches getting added to youtube are hit and miss. Cause its normally an asian fan that does it and their access to BTN+ is less than regular BTN or the other TV networks.

Orr could be the best blocking setter in the country if she can position herself properly. very few setters if any are putting up blocks that big. she looks like she's touching only about 3 inches less than hord which is very impressive

Interesting discussion by photos1 in B1G2022 thread on gains and losses Akana vs Hames. I'll try to paraphrase. Photos1 can correct as needed. 1) Hames > Akana on defense. Agree 2) Akana was not elite at serve receive. Hames will be targeted to test her. Agree that Hames serve receive is untested, but with her no longer having setting responsibility she will likely soon prove to be elite at serve receive. 3) Akana only slightly better server than Hames. Agree. Again with Hames no longer setting, her serving may improve. 4) NE is a better team with Orr as setter in part due to her better blocking, and Hames being an elite DS. Agree. Photos1 I hope I summarized your points accurately. Tried to copy in a screen shot but that didn't work for me. Anyway I basically agreed with your points and thought they really needed to be shared on the NE 2022 thread. Thanks.
