And you would think there's a good chance they take advantage of that free year of grad school since there's no pro leagues to jump to. Could definitely go back to back

Number one recruiting class in nation coming in next year. First time ever for UK.
Looks and a great athlete too. Some people are just blessed.
If they all come back with what we got coming in, you can guarantee preseason number one
UK is a Volleyball school NOW!!! Those girls made us all very proud. Thank you Ladies.
Wouldn't be surprised if attendance doesn't literally double.
With the chance of the older ones coming back and a top class coming in looks like
we will be a force for years to come.
Skinner is a hell of a coach. Pushed all the right buttons and kept his players loose. With the talent he has, a final four or better is a reasonable expectation for next year.
I wonder what the streets in Lexington looks like. Wouldn't seem right without a couch burning.
I don’t know if it has been mentioned, but she (Lilley) dates Nate Sestina.
Don’t understand the baseball contract extension though.
I played YMCA volleyball 3 years , won 2 championships, and learned more watching these games than I did in 3 years playing, lol.
I saw that UK is only the 2nd school east of the Mississippi River to win the championship. Crazy accomplishment.

Was talking with wife about that. How does that work if all seniors return? I haven’t read anything about that .
I asked in the game thread if anyone knew if Nate Sestina was there lol. I saw the name Nate like 10 times and had no idea it was him until my daughter mentioned it.
Not sure. But it is good problem to have for Skinner.
Madison Lilley stated in the Postgame Presser that she was finished and wouldn't be coming back. Hated to hear that, but this year was extremely difficult on those girls. Going out as an NCAA Champion, National Player of the Year and MOP of the NCAA Tournament probably made that decision easier!!
However, haven't seen anything about the other 3.

I guess you can contribute it to old age and senility, but I will never understand the couch fires...

I was at Ball State when he was coaching the men’s team there in the late 90’s. Super nice guy. It’s amazing what he has done here. He came to a program that hadn’t been to the NCAA Tournament much and has never missed in his 16 years at UK (I think). It’s amazing what he has done with that program.
I’d think the women’s team could definitely use them. These girls actually get up off the floor! Imagine actually jumping to block shots instead of standing with hands up hoping a girl misses.
Only SEC school to win a championship. That makes the feather in his cap even bigger.
What an impressive couple. Nate is a guy I would be happy for my daughter to date. And if I had a son I would love for him to date Madison.
Replacing all-American seniors Madison Lilley and Gabby Curry will make it difficult. But they will still have truly great hitters in Stumler, Tealer and Madi Skinner.
UK now has a very, very strong athletics department. This national volleyball championship is very impressive.
All of us are rightly concerned about the recently completed basketball season, although a staff shakeup is underway. The longer history of our basketball program suggests we will be back in the top 10 soon enough.
I am a little concerned about baseball. We have a good baseball program, but it seems to have stalled on the periphery of the SEC hierarchy.
Aside from that, if you are fact based, you have to be really impressed with our Athletics Department.

I think we are probably doing the best we can in that sport.
When you are in the conference with the likes of Georgia, Alabama etc I feel like you can only get so far lol.
Speaking of baseball, Cats playing double header with Bama now WLAP.COM
btm 2nd inn. 0-0. Cats up to bat.
Sestina came to UK hoping to get to a Final Four. Looks like he did okay anyway.
