I watched the 2006 championship a few weeks ago, and wondering if this season has similarities in the starts? Because I don’t see anyone on the court or the bench having a good time really, the intensity is there when things work but not joy.

Gotta love Volleytalk and the opinions with zero basis. Hangover effect from what happened with Harper months ago, chemistry problems, Cook in their heads, Cook spending too much time with his horse……….how many times has this program started the season sluggish?? It’s nice that so many people are interested, but for the love of all things holy, RELAX!

Also Cook has spent too much time with his horses IMHO. What he has now is much much more than a hobby. This is a garbage take. Do you have hobbies outside of your job? Cook needs and deserves an outlet. I assumed Nebraska fans would be more in tune with bettering mental health now after watching Harper’s downfall. Guess I was wrong

Nebraska gets a lot of talent and not everyone is going to get to start so it’s up to coaches to determine who they think is gonna have biggest impact. They have done a decent job of that over the years. I think this is one of the few mistakes they made however. I also think if not Nebraska is was always gonna be psu for CJ with her ties there. Mendlson was just a bonus and I think CJ was the reason penn state was able to get her Sometimes SA's just don't fit for whatever reason. Just like not everyone has the same friend and jerk lists. Highly rumored it was related to a redshirt she didn't want. Not discounting that, but suspect there were other factors as well. Regardless Jurevius will likely heat up the NE-PSU rivalry, and PSU is hungry.

I too hope it's something easily correctible, however.

Here is what I know to be fact, this team has as good or better talent than anyone, this team has as good or better staff than anyone, this teams schedule will prepare them as well as any team, this programs bad years look like losses in regional finals. I’m gonna go with that, and not 3-4 matches before September 4. Call me nuts.

Call me nuts. and you’re entitled to that take and it’s reasonable but your constant condescending attitude towards ANY Nebraska fan who DARES criticize ANYTHING cook or the players do is ridiculous lol. Fans are allowed to complain and let off some steam after a loss ESPECIALLY the kind of loss it was. Some of the comments I agree are over the top but you seriously won’t let anyone say hm maybe Cook didn’t prepare them the best for this one even tho he’s still a great coach. Without jumping in with the “yea you’re right he knows nothing and should be fired” or the “and that’s why you’re not the coach” comments

The bath water is dirty,the baby has a cold, don't throw it out.

I just want his total attention on volleyball. Not saying he doesn't deserve an outlet, but the way it has engrossed the entire VB side of things as well. It was cute and fun when it started during Covid, but it's just old now. You don't see other coaches hobbies integrated in their teams culture anymore. Not saying its the reason for things -- just an observation that I and other people I have talked to have noticed.

Gibby is just as exhausting as he was when he used to post under his old user
Always condescending and what we call “high maka Maka” in Hawaii
