I just saw that the Big Ten Network has released it's volleyball TV schedule, and only two Husker games have been picked up.  ESPN 2 is currently set to show two games as well.  Does anyone know if NET will still show matches the others have turned down?  If so this is something that could really hurt the program.  Last year 12 matches were carried on NET, something they've been doing for a long time.  That exposure has really helped build the program.

I like to take things by the seat of my pants.  I figure if your pants can't get you there, then what can?

NU isn't fully vested in the BTN yet, so we may not get very many games for the other sports shown on the BTN until we are fully vested which is 2016 I believe.
