Omaha Supernovas head coach Shelton Collier reassigned after 2 matches, will remain advisor

Two matches into the Pro Volleyball Federation season, the Omaha Supernovas already are making a coaching change.

The team announced Tuesday that Shelton Collier no longer will be the head coach. Instead, he'll be an advisor for the organization.

Assistant Laura "Bird" Kuhn, who played for Collier at Georgia Tech, will serve as the team's interim coach. She was recently the head coach at Texas A&M.
...
"With the Supernovas off to a tremendous start, we need to expand our operations in preparations for our immediate future needs," team president Diane Mendenhall said in a press release. "We are fortunate to have coach Collier's experience in moving into this role as advisor."

I saw a report that they had around 9,000 at the game on Wed night. Wonder if that was actual attendance or tickets sold?

My brother and sister-in-law were at the game last night, and he was saying about 9,000 were there…

Has anyone seen anything on how attendance is going for the rest of the league?

Have not and have done a little searching. The fact that I cannot find anything is a bit concerning. Maybe I am just not searching correctly either

@nebraskabugeater decent start. as expected, some better than others.

5k in some cities could be iffy if they are paying $60k plus per player, but if they are pooling the money and the 11k they expect Omaha to draw subsidizes the rest of the league too, it could work. If every team has to stand on their own, gets dicey.

Went to my fist Supernovas game last night. They had between 8 and 9 thousand there. I thought that was pretty good for a weeknight and I think Creighton was playing at the same time.

We got cheap tickets that were on the end/middle. Thought the view was good. They do a real good job with the pregame show and in game stuff to keep the crowd involved and the noise level up. Only kind of downside was, I went to grab a beer immediately after set 3. They had already shut down the concessions on the upper level. Walked to the main concourse and they had some open but said alcohol sales were done for the night. A few others walked up behind me and asked as well. Seemed early since theoretically you could go 5 sets (Omaha lost to Atlanta in 4 last night, 3-1). Thought they'd be selling at least until the start of set 4. Not sure if it stops immediately after the conclusion of set 3 or before the start of set 3. Missing some possible income.

Either way, I will definitely go again. My college age son is back on Spring Break and he liked it too.
