How many female coaches have won a national championship? We want to keep winning, not be a DEI statistic.

Mmmmm no. Tom nearly died that last year before that last bowl game. He was advised by his cardiologists to quit before he finally did. There was no way he could have kept up the pace. It would have killed him.
Yeah, to go out like he did with guns blazing was a thing of beauty.
I guess a 'splash hire' would also include Jordan Larson? That choice would make me nervous. Obviously a great player, big name in the VB world, and a Nebraskan, I just have no clue if she's got 'it' as a coach.
I still think he regrets retiring when he did. He says main reason was that he had promised Solich. He had already delayed retirement a year when Wistrom & Peters came back for their senior year.
Too bad he couldn't have taken more of a CEO role, given up the OC duties, reduced his work load, and stayed longer, but he's not wired that way.
Starting off today's match slow (currently on espnews until the Louisville/Pitt game ends). 9-5 Arkansas.
Somebody forgot to tell the lady hogs they are playing the #1 team in the most hostile venue in college volleyball. They are taking Nebraska to school.
It hasn’t been 30+ years but he was extremely fortunate to survive that go round. A family member was one of his Dr.s. Tom’s self discipline and compliance with medical advice is why he has lived as long as he has. Virtually no other human could stick to the extremely strict diet plan that he practices. He once joked “I don’t eat anything that tastes good”.
Probably pretty deflating for Arkansas, definitely can't count on Nebraska making such garbage passes and poor shots an entire match.
How long has it been?
I can PROMISE you he did not change one thing about his life...dude never drank, never had fun, never did anything "wrong"...
Someone needs to find the producer who keeps going to those camera shots from way behind the endline and break all his knuckles with a nutcracker.
Hogs are quick and scrappy but they missed their window when they couldn’t close out Set #1. Looking like a sweep now.
Yep, NBC does that in Olympic volleyball matches and people have complained about it for years, including me
