From this weekend's @i80club.bsky.social patron-only show. The NCAA's new 5-year eligibility rule could have a big impact on volleyball. But will it make the rich richer? Or will it spread the talent wealth to up-and-coming programs? 🏐 patreon.com/I80Club
As we prepare to hear from Nebraska at B1G VB Media Days, we wondered on our subscriber-only show last night how being a Team Without A Country this offseason and early this fall may impact the Huskers. Full show out tomorrow.

🚨Sunday Night🚨 Exclusive for @i80club.bsky.social subscribers, our Big Ten Media Days preview show. We'll take your questions and touch on the big storylines coming into the season. - Can Nebraska be dethroned? - Will transfers reinvigorate Penn State & Wisconsin? - Darkhorses?
Kentucky edged Texas by two points in the preseason SEC poll. The Wildcats received 9 first-place votes, while UT picked up 6. Reigning NCAA champion Texas A&M got the final one. UK also dominated the 15-player All-SEC preseason team with 5 selections. Texas and Florida had 2 honorees.
Former Husker Kelsey Cook will play with the San Francisco Signal in their inaugural year. Cook will be back on the court next year after giving birth to her daughter this spring.
In theory, the NCAA's 5 for 5 rule allows teams to develop depth easier. For Nebraska, would a player like Skyler Pierce have played in a handful of matches last year without worry of a redshirt?
