This has always been one of my favorite views of the east Lincoln skyline.  |

Nice to see Taylor and Leyla in the house! Taylor and Leyla version 2.0 is coming in a few months. Should be fun to watch. The future looks bright for the big red! Lexi looks taller. |

Saw this and got excited for the future so I decided to watch your videos on Leyla and Taylor. Hoping and wishing that the coaches figure out a faster system to let these hitters shine and trash the mid tempo offense because I know we have the passing and setting to do so. |

Will be interesting how that turns out, but word was last year, Taylor was not a fan of the quick tempo KC wanted and struggled early last year, so they went back to what worked for her in the past with a slower tempo. It worked. I don't think Krause is a fan of faster tempo either. We will see. |

The passing was bad and Shaffmaster was impaired in her mobility. The year prior with Hugh, Minnesota ran quite a fast ball to the pin at times and Landfair looked fantastic with it. I wouldn't try to extrapolate much about last season. Just not a good fit. |

I didnât follow Minnesota closely enough to comment on them. Every time I tried to watch them they just werenât entertaining for me. But I watched the Texas match closely. I felt like it was unreasonable that Cook left Landfair as vulnerable as he did in serve receive the whole match through. Maybe there was a long term strategy there. Help her develop resilience. Help make her more coachable. Maybe he truly thought sheâd turn it around. But it made me sad watching her flounder out there in serve receive so egregiously. Texas targeted her something like 54 times. That can leave a mark. |

Honestly it shouldnât have been that kind of issue for Minnesota. Thereâs no strategic reason why one player should be so ineffective with 54 serve receives. Field the serve with 5 players. Have her step aside or be in the very back with her 5 teammates in front of her. Iâve seen plenty of coaches hide a player, either because they were ineffective or because they wanted them available to attack without having to be concerned with getting into position to do so after a serve receive. Thatâs my thing. There was some other kind of priority going on in that match other than to win the match. What that was, I have no idea. She looked like she was the Scott Sterling of serve receive without the facials. Itâs like she was wearing magnets and the volleyball was filled with iron fillings. |

This is kind of a random post, but I was wondering if any Nebraska fans (or some of you other lurkers đ) have any games on old VHS tapes that involve Nebraska. If you do, do you want them converted? You can DM me if you want, rather than clutter up the thread any further lol.

I'll be very surprised if landfill ever plays 6 at Nebraska. she would have to make major strides defensively and improve a little as a passer too (I think her defense is 10x worse than her passing) |

I'll be very surprised if landfill ever plays 6 at Nebraska. she would have to make major strides defensively and improve a little as a passer too (I think her defense is 10x worse than her passing) Yeah, I donât have an opinion Harper Murray is awesome in 6 rotations, and Nebraska has 3 outstanding back row players. The reason to have Landfair in the backrow is sheâs an awesome weapon on the bic. But I donât have any investment in how thatâs worked out. She can also be in serve receive as an OH. Thatâs one of the issues Nebraska had against Texas in the championship match, is that Texas kept targeting the front row OH, which is part of why Kubik was brought in to switch things up a bit. I guess my point is that thereâs always the option to simply have 1 less player in serve receive. Iâve seen plenty of teams do that. However Nebraska uses Landfair will be interesting. Maybe sheâs the third option as the OH, and doesnât see much playing time after all. Itâs not like Nebraska needs her, IMO. Itâs more about what happened to her last year, and while it was a team wide issue, Landfair was Exhibit A for the troubles Minnesota experienced, from my perspective. I guess my biggest point is that regardless, thereâs not going to be a match where she receives serve 50+ times. That I feel completely sure of. Donât know why it was allowed to happen last year. Iâm grateful for it, but I donât understand it. |

I actually will be surprised if Landfair is constitently in the lineup at Nebraska. Iâll take a healthy Krause based off what I watched last season.

I am completely indifferent. Itâs a nice problem to have. Same at middle blocker. There are 3 high quality middle blockers on the roster. Any 2 of the 3 are national championship caliber as far as Iâm concerned. Itâs a nice luxury to have. I have no opinion whatsoever on how it gets sorted out. Iâm interested to watch. |

The mention of Kubik had me thinking you were talking about Madi for a second, then to realize it was actually Hayden.đđ I also canât help but think what our season wouldâve looked like if Madi had taken her 5th year. Granted her offense wasnât the best but that passing was lights out. Maybe we wouldnât have gotten aced 12 times or at least passed slightly better than what we actually did⌠|
