    B1G Match 3: Gophers Host Michigan (9-29-23)

    Yeah, I was watching that game too. Texas is a different team this season.....there is no doubt they miss Eggleston, Fleck and Caffey.

    B1G Match 2: Gophers visit Nebraska (9-24-23)

    Hebert Era was outstanding. Yes RR and his Penn State teams were the real deal too and so much fun to watch. I also loved watching the development of many of our players during the McCutcheon era......Santana, Wilhite, Hart, Samedy, and Pittman to name a few. Hugh leaves and in steps Keegan...

    B1G Match 2: Gophers visit Nebraska (9-24-23)

    Well it's a good thing I posted because ClassOf98Gopher more than likely would not have posted in this thread, if it wasn't for me. I love this sport, but watching our Gopher players return this season and struggle as much as they are is heartbreaking. So call it whining and complaining all...

    B1G Match 2: Gophers visit Nebraska (9-24-23)

    I questioned Hugh Ball a lot of times but he would come through with some fantastic wins with his players. I was excited to be a Keegan Ball fan when he took the HC position here at Minnesota. So far this season, in all honesty. I am not. IMO coaching decisions and players not setup to...

    B1G Match 1: Gophers Visit Iowa (9-21-23)

    I totally agree with this. It appeared the middle was open a lot for us during that match. I think we would be foolish to believe it will be the same with Nebraska.....but it sure would be nice.

    B1G Match 2: Gophers visit Nebraska (9-24-23)

    I like many Gopher fans were hoping that Z would be available and our back court woes would be resolved Recently, I was reminded (reading somewhere) besides being a foreigner she has not had to study for some time. Therefore, I am concluding the chances of seeing her on the court as a regular...

    B1G Match 1: Gophers Visit Iowa (9-21-23)

    Yes we have a different HC this season. You would never have seen this continuous self imploding of these players under Hugh like you are seeing with KCook. There is no doubt ERRORS have taken over this Gopher team. This is the BIG and, after this match, I am now wondering exactly how much...

    Matches 7 & 8: Gophers Host Diet Coke Classic, High Point and Creighton (Sept 14-16, 2023)

    I hear everybody. TayLa has always come across laid back since she came to Minnesota. I just think that is her personality and it comes off the same way when she is playing volleyball. I was happy KCook was willing to sub out an athlete up to now when they are not performing and...

    Hard to say if Wisconsin would have come back for the win today, if Stucky didn't leave the game with an injury after Florida was up 2-0. See what Nebraska does today against Kentucky.

    Matches 7 & 8: Gophers Host Diet Coke Classic, High Point and Creighton (Sept 14-16, 2023)

    Right now there is such a difference in TEAM ENERGY when McGhie is setting. She can cover more court much quicker than Shaff and it appears she has been able to energize Landfair and actually the entire team more. More than likely because of Shaff's knee brace, we play at a slower pace with...

    Matches 7 & 8: Gophers Host Diet Coke Classic, High Point and Creighton (Sept 14-16, 2023)

    Grote IS KILLING IT! IMO she needs to stay in as a 6R pin.

    Matches 7 & 8: Gophers Host Diet Coke Classic, High Point and Creighton (Sept 14-16, 2023)

    I feel that neither of our starting OH's appear being engaged between the ears during these matches. They are roommates and IMO emotions are being played out on that court. Is it good or bad I really don't know. But, what I do know, both are playing a HUGE ROLE in our losses.

    Matches 7 & 8: Gophers Host Diet Coke Classic, High Point and Creighton (Sept 14-16, 2023)

    If Landfair is unable to play against Creighton tomorrow and they continue with Z playing DS, I personally will find it very interesting to see how the team's all around performance will turn out. Right now I am so confused how the transfer ins (Awoleye-Grote-Murr) have all settled in with...

    Athletes Unlimited 2023

    Minnesota has developed some outstanding Middles and some of my all time favorites are Lauren Gibbemeyer, Tori DIxon and Regan Pittman. I understand the thought process about this league, but I personally still plan on watching TD play. To this day despite her injuries she is one of the best at...

    Matches 5 & 6: B1G/Pac 12 Challenge: Gophers Play Oregon and Stanford in Palo Alto (Sept 8 & 9, 2023)

    Tough Love time for this HC. To most of us fans it is quite obvious and in all seriousness time for this HC to address the "elephant on the court". IMO, it is a must that all players be as mentally and/or physically capable to play any sport, at any time. It is no secret to anyone who is...

    Matches 5 & 6: B1G/Pac 12 Challenge: Gophers Play Oregon and Stanford in Palo Alto (Sept 8 & 9, 2023)

    Caught the Highlights on YouTube. Didn't recognize Wucherer at first....she didn't have her hair braided but was a complete FORCE on that court tonight. Grote and Hanson on the RS both added energy and scoring. Really like what I saw from both of them. Glad to see this team swinging away...

    Match 4: Gophers visit Florida (9-3-23)

    KCook did not inherit a passing team. If we are all honest about it, we could see this coming. We have some fantastic hitters and blockers on this team, but yes we need someone healthy to run this offense. Does her digging, serving, blocking help us more than her setting for an entire match...
