Hi. Badger fan here. We will be attending the AVCA First Serve Showcase next Tuesday night! Does anyone here have any suggestions for parking near the KFC Yum! Center? Thanks very much! There is parking underneath the KFC Yum! Center, entrances are from the sides of the building on either 2nd or 3rd street. That's not a huge amount of parking, so be prepared to fail over to another location. Directly across 3rd street are two parking garages...I believe they interconnect to allow both access to walk across the pedway into the KFC Yum! Center lobby. Set back from main street across from the front of the KFC Yum! Center plaza is the LG&E parking garage. It's actually on Market Street, with entrances from Market Street and 2nd Street, but there is a walkway out of the garage towards Main Street, which is easy to cross to get to the front plaza of the KFC Yum! Center. Lastly there is the Witherspoon garage on Witherspoon Street across 2nd from the KFC Yum! Center. Entrances are from Witherspoon Street and 2nd Street. Parking pricing is typically done as event parking, and somewhere between $10 and $20.

Thank you, stanfordvb and jeffmca!
Hopefully we'll find parking in that range you mention ($10-$20). I was a little paranoid about just picking a nearby lot since many don't list the rate so you find out when you get in line or enter. For Badger football games here in Madison it might be $30 in the lot you pick, then you find out that it would have been $10 a block away. And when we visited La Jolla Cove in California last month we were charged $40 for a lot that you had to enter in an incredibly congested area to find out the rate (so it was almost impossible to leave and look for a more reasonable price). :-(

Places to eat while I’m there for 3 days? I’m staying downtown within walking distance of the Yum, but open to catching an Uber to eat somewhere if it’s recommended! I am looking forward to the trip!

Places to eat while I’m there for 3 days? I’m staying downtown within walking distance of the Yum, but open to catching an Uber to eat somewhere if it’s recommended! I am looking forward to the trip! One of my favorite restaurants in town is Mojito's in Holiday Manor shopping center (it'd be an Uber ride, not downtown). But if you're in the downtown core, you'll likely be within walking distance of much of NuLu, or a *very* short Uber/Lyft to that area. There are a bunch of places in there that are quite good. Of particular note is right around the 800 block of East Market, is Grind Burger Kitchen, Emmy Squared Pizza, Mayan Cafe, and Lou Lou on Market as eateries. West Sixth is a Lexington based microbrew with a location in there as well. Please and Thank you is a great coffee shop with amazeballs cookies. A block over is Feast BBQ and Quaca Mole which are good. Coming back towards the KFC Yum! Center is La Bogadita De Mima (Cuban), and Garage Bar (pizza), then Louisville Cream for some great ice cream desert. Dasha BarBour's in the 200 block of East Main is probably the best fried chicken I've ever had...good southern comfort food in general. Even closer to the Yum!, literally across 2nd Street. Sidebar is a great whiskey bar with a really good burger. Troll Pub Under the Bridge is solid. Facing Main Street is Doc Crow's...excellent BBQ, and Patrick O'Shea's for Irish cuisine. I have not personally been to Merle's Whiskey Kitchen, but I've heard good things. If you want to go upscale, Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse is very good, just to the west of Yum! Mussel and Burger Bar on 7th is good. Vincenzo's is good for upscale Italian. There is a bunch of stuff in 4th Street Live between Liberty and Muhammad Ali on 4th, but...meh, and please don't tell any other locals that I mentioned it to you. Other than Mojito's, all of the above is within about 10 blocks of Yum!

A random scenario came up in my head,
If Nayelis does redshirt(which i doubt she will) and Elle Glock somehow isn’t able to play (maybe if she gets injured or something) In the worst situation could Elena Scott be a setter again???
idk just a very random thought

If that happened my first guesses would be Scott and Sami but I don't think we'll ever get there lol Btw, redshirting is not something you do before the season starts that makes you unable to play once you declare it. You can sub anyone in at any time you want, regardless of if they're supposed to be redshirting that season or not. You don't earn the redshirt credit until after the season is completed and you didn't participate. Texas could have subbed in Byrd, helmers, and bunton at any point during the natty if they wanted to

A 6-2 will be used at least once tommorow so im gonna go with eazy's line up but with Ava Utterback as a potential serving sub, sge got so many aces in the spring season But if a 5-1 S: Glocl L: Scott OH: Debeer OH: Luper OPP: Reese because of wisconins height, she needs to stop them MB: Cresse MB: PK DS(for opposite): Kamden Schrand/untiedt SS: Utterback/Schrand
Louisvillle is a mid sized team, i hope Cresse could use her height as an advantage and block that ball, its not her biggest stregnth
Schrand will deffo see courtime, just dont know which position
Im so excited this season this is one of my fav Louisville teams with 2021.2022 so much depth

DBk just said that Anna Debeer is the best player to ever be at Louisville, do yall agree
I Know its between Anna Debeer, Amaya Tilam, Wilma Rivera, CLaire Chaussee, Tori Dilfer, Stevie HaLL, Elena Scott, Lola Arslanbekova, Katie George, Raquel Lazzaro, Melanie McHenry, Em Juhl and Molly Sauer (betwwen sauer and scott are the best libero of all time at Lou)
These are hands down the best players ever at Lousiville

If we're talking about skill alone, the ones I edited out do not belong in that conversation. Impact over their careers is a different story, but if we are talking about 'best player', it's one of them ^ probably hall or Scott
