TonyStalloni 1,003 Report post Posted March 27, 2017 Is there a concerted effort by Eichorst and the front office that no other sports beside football and volleyball can be successful? I guess you can throw in track as well but that coach has been here since SE was in the sack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HuskermanMike 601 Report post Posted March 27, 2017 This is what happens when you force an elite coach out the door. Nebraska will go back to mediocrity unless it gets the players that want to be pushed past their limits so they can succeed. Amy is in a strange situation here, so it will take some time. Best of luck to Jessica Shepard, maybe she makes the WNBA down the road and if she does good for her. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PaulCrewe 2,301 Report post Posted March 27, 2017 Funny one of the biggest proponents for getting rid of Yori is now leaving. Good luck to her and hopefully she can commit to conditioning and reach the potential she has 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I'm almost positive Osborne isn't AD anymore and the statement I quoted was about Eichorst so there's that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Atbone95 1,596 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 What a diva. Forces a coach out and then promptly leaves when she doesn't like the new one. #GBR Jessica. You guys are acting like Connie Yori did nothing to force the hand of the AD to have to let her go. Connie pushed her players, and quite a few of them said any complaints about her pushing "too hard" were simply those not wanting to work for their spots.

So, basically only volleyball can be good. I wasn't as clear as I should have been. Football money is being spent on new assistant coaches and support staff in recruiting. They are at least making the effort and giving it every chance to be successful. WBB hired a young coach with few national connections and said "Good luck".

gobiggergoredder 1,751 Report post Posted January 29, 2018 Looks like she’s doing really well for Notre Dame, but this might be a case of addition by subtraction for the Husker program. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cdog923 3,648 Report post Posted February 1, 2018 Hindsight being 20/20, it's really easy to call people out, but it seems Williams has more than made up for both last year and Shepard leaving the program. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cdog923 3,648 Report post Posted March 27, 2018 Was transferring the best decision for her? Sure; she's at a better program and in the Final Four. Would she have been alright on this year's team? Probably; they were a tournament team without her. Was transferring mutually beneficial for all parties involved? Probably so. Can I only write posts with questions in them? We'll see? #PerdHaply 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TonyStalloni 1,003 Report post Posted March 31, 2018 I was a little chapped that a Nebraska girl would jump ship after one year in the program but I think it has worked out well for both parties.

They said during the game last night that she applied for a waiver and it was granted just a couple hours before Notre Dame's first exhibition game. I don't know what the basis for her appeal was but she wasn't expecting to get it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
