Volleyball State
Ep. 52 - Husker Heartbreak in the Final Four
It's a Volleyball State Therapy Session as Lincoln and Jeff relive Nebraska's five-set loss to Penn State with NU radio play-by-play broadcaster John Baylor. Was Nebraska missing a killer instinct, or just missing the ability to kill volleyballs? A look ahead to who's coming back in 2025, who will lead, and is an addition from the transfer portal in the cards? Producer: Kahm Broham
