NEW | It's the story until it's not. Nebraska hasn't won an NCAA Tournament game — the only Power 4 men's program without a tourney W. Much will be made of that this week. But are the Huskers thinking about it? My Selection Sunday column: journalstar.com/sports/huske...

COLUMN | In defense of Fred Hoiberg... the only thing he needed to apologize for was accidentally hitting an Iowa staffer. And he did. My thoughts on court security, emotional rivalries and pacemakers: journalstar.com/sports/huske...

Hello 👋🏻 Happy New Year’s Eve, everyone. We are a few hours out from the Las Vegas Bowl here at Allegiant Stadium.

THREAD | Merry Christmas, everyone. As the year comes to a close, I'm reminded of my favorite stories of the year. Here's a thread of my favorite features from 2025:

NEW | "I don’t know if it’ll ever be done again." Twenty-five years after winning the program's second national championship, the 2000 Nebraska volleyball team's legacy still lives on. Part V of Selfless Underdogs: journalstar.com/sports/huske...

It’s Super Brawl time. My heart rate is already elevated.

NEW | "This would be a great movie." How did Nebraska rally against South Carolina in the second round of the 2000 NCAAs? How did Nebraska gut it out against Wisconsin in the final? It all starts with a dreamcatcher. Part IV of Selfless Underdogs: journalstar.com/sports/huske...

NEW | "He just really stamped in my brain that we could win it all." Ahead of the 2000 season, Nebraska received one of the lowest preseason rankings in program history. But an early-season win built early belief: Part III of Selfless Underdogs: journalstar.com/sports/huske...

NEW | "It was a big reality check." What was the foundation for the 2000 Nebraska volleyball team's success? The China trip that changed everything for Nebraska volleyball: Part II of Selfless Underdogs: journalstar.com/sports/huske...

NEW | "That title is still brushed under the rug.” It's been 25 years since Nebraska's 2000 team finished its improbable run at 34-0. How'd they do it? Part 1 of Selfless Underdogs: journalstar.com/sports/huske...

NEW | Is it the hope that kills you? Or is it the lack of hope that comes and gets you? On Sunday, Nebraska fans received a two-for-one special of both kinds of pain. On Nebraska’s lone loss of the season — a heartbreaking 5-setter to Texas A&M in the Elite Eight. journalstar.com/sports/huske...

S2 | Texas A&M 25, Nebraska 22 The Bob is in disbelief. Nebraska is down 0-2 in the Elite Eight. Texas A&M is one set away from making the program's first-ever Final Four. If Nebraska makes it to Kansas City, the Huskers will need to reverse sweep.

S1 | Texas A&M 25, Nebraska 22 Set point: service ace by Maddie Waak. The difference: The Aggie serve. The Aggies had four aces in that set and served really, really tough — stretching and stressing Nebraska's serve receive.
