Lol 1. She only had 5 swings on D balls.As for passing, Oregon slightly outpassed NE, mostly because Batenhorst got worked a bit. Nebraska
Rodriguez- 2.35 / 58.8 GP% Kubik- 2.17 / 51.3 GP% Batenhorst- 2.06 / 41.2 GP% Oregon
Murphy - 2.31 / 43.9 GP% Nuneviller- 2.18 / 44.4 GP% McClellan- 2.19/ 51.9 GP% Do you think Batenhorst enters the portal? It seems like she's been in Cook's doghouse from time to time. It's hard to say. Not sure what you mean by doghouse though, if anything he's had more faith in her than the fanbase has. She's very frustrating because she moves well for someone her height but her offense is limited by some bad technical habits of hers and a tendency to be passive. I think she actually looked better playing 6 rotations though, she seemed looser. Idk who will leave if anyone. I think it's probably in Orr's best interest and personally not sure Hayden could possibly feel like she has a real shot anytime soon. |

Yeah, it may mean nothing, or it could be a clue. I suppose we'll know pretty soon in any event. It probably boils down to the amount of playing time she expects to receive in 2023, which might depend upon new recruits, and putting up with Cook's coaching style. |

I’m confused. Only the designated right side hitter can hit a D ball? Is that what I’m reading there? Apparently LMFAO. Is there also a special D ball jersey they have to wear? A jersey decal? Just an anointing? I've gotta know. not the D ball jersey 😭 |

Is that a violation? Out of rotation maybe? I think its closed eyes and two hands together on the right side of your face to signal a boring offense violation  Attachments:

Maybe it's Cook just juggling balls to find the right starting lineup and switching the lineup in-game to goose performance. |

This. ^^^^^^^^^^^ Seems to me this season was one juggle after another for the Huskers. It would be interesting to count all the different starting lineups all season long. Injuries (Batenhorst, Hames, Knuckles) certainly played a role but there was a lot of tinkering with different combinations throughout the year. |

Coach likes Ally. She is a big time player. Let's all remember Ally, Krause, Whit, and Lexi are all sophomores. Their upcoming junior years will be epic. |

From that the offense will magically improve? |

I'm done making predictions about what *will* happen, but it's not like Nebraska doesn't have any reason to be optimistic. Anybody who actually watched the matches (let alone those of us who watched all of them) knows that setting was the #1 issue this season. We're bringing in a recruit who literally set Senior National team players in competition a few months ago. And some great defensive/offensive talent coming in to join the 21's who will be a year older. |

It's easy to second guess after the fact, but Cook's stated reason for putting Boesiger in to serve for Allick with his final sub of the 4th set doesn't really make sense. It was a deuce set at that point and sure, Allick has been an erratic server this season, but at worst she misses her serve and you're facing set point. If so, Rodriguez comes back into the back row and you have Allick available to come back into the front row later, rather than having the 5"6' Boesiger up there. IMO it wasn't a gamble worth taking. Maybe. Things like going for 2 and going for it on 4th down aggressively were seen as dumb in the NFL until analytics blew up. It didn't work out this time, but I'd think your server at 26-25 returning to the front row happens pretty infrequently. It’s one thing to use your last two subs when you’re in a 6-2. But to end up with a middle out, for a serving specialist? I don’t know what the analytics would say, but at this level, to end up with essentially no middle, one hitter, and a setter who never plays front row seems too much of a risk. I guess you must consider all things. If your serving specialist is one of the tops in the country and your MB is really bad, I might understand. |

When Allick gets her serve in it’s good and shes a pretty dang good defender for a middle. It was an AWFUL choice. Even if Allick missed her serve it wasn’t worth it |

He played percentages with a stronger server in hopes that the match would be over by the time she made it to the front row. He rolled the dice and lost. Simple as that. Should never have been in a 6-2 in the first place, but it is what it is. That's assuming they knew they were going to be out of subs. By the look on the players faces they did not seem prepared for that situation. |

The wrong thing to do would be to conserve a sub in case you go to 30. Sort of the definition of planning to fail. Also, that sub had zero to do with going down 5-14 in the 5th. Hold that down just to 5-11 and it is a whole different outcome. |
