Bad lineup choices IMO. But what do I know? No reason why TAMU should sideout at this % either.

And even in South Dakota we get John Cook. Who does a good job, but same issue.

Do you suppose anyone with any kind of power in this sport has ever considered the POSSIBILITY that the totally out of proportion focus on Nebraska is ultimately bad for the sport? It just seems that rather than milking every last nickel out of Nebraska fans that some attention could be paid to...

This is a story I've told before, but I'd never presume anyone was paying attention so I'll tell it again. The Gopher's ball control was horrid for Berg's entire 4 seasons at Minnesota. There will never be a Gopher setter who did more with less. But I witnessed the beginning of the change in the...

Stella just didn't stand out for me, but that is probably a very good thing. I'm much more likely to notice bad setting than I am consistent setting. Let's just say I don't recall seeing many missed connections. It didn't seem like Kilkelly played all that much after g1. Their OHs were playing...

I don't need to. She just turned 43. That's not middle 40s. I did watch this match. It was not very interesting (read competitive) imo. Too bad Santana and Samedy were no-shows, but I'm not sure that would have affected the passing issues the alumni had. To me, Zeynip (and Hanson) were the two...

Someone commented (in VolleyTalk) about Jen Bowman being in her mid-40s. No chance. Early 40s OK. Just saying. An interesting career path for Jen. Northern Illinois to LBSU to Minnesota. IIRC she had to sit a year after the LBSU transfer. I still think it would have been so cool if the Gophers...

Not so much fell as intentionally dove off the floor in pursuit of the last point in an NCAA loss. Against Notre Dame I think? I believe she was the 2nd in a series of 4-year starting setters (Osterling, Jackson, Bauer, Berg), although I'm not sure who preceded Sharon Osterling and the website...

One of the all-time Gopher greats, from the early 90s. No one's ever going to forget her last play as a Gopher.

Was there white smoke involved?

It's all the transfers. Money has ruined the sport, just as it has pro sports. I just can't get into cheering for a uniform and I REALLY can't get into being a fan of the Washington Generals. So, yes. I'm done. But it was a fun 35-year run. Mostly.

If Kennedy Martin ends up at Wisconsin, Penn State, Nebraska or Texas, I am done with this sport. I know. No great loss. But I just wanted to go on record. I also know other sports are worse, but I don't pay any attention to them.

Redshirt senior. She may also be done with school/volleyball?

Also, so far at least, there are still way too many players on the roster who do not look like they will ever make a significant difference on the court.

My takeaway from the spring. We still don't have an opposite who can score consistently. Wucherer is still not well and may not be this fall. Jordan is better than we had a right to expect. We lost to the only quality team we played (without Hanson?) and it wasn't that close. Season still...

That's a great quote.

But not coaching ...

I don't think we should take it personally, but let's. Seriously, I just don't think dealing with the new NIL terrain is something a lot of coaches want in their lives.
