In an interview with the Husker volleyball, Dani Busboom Kelly opened up about receiving support from the Nebraska team members. She spoke about their reaction and revealed that although it was a difficult task for them to bid goodbye to John Cook, they extended their support toward her.

"I thought it was amazing. You know, I don't know these players very well. I recruited them, some of them, I might have had one or two conversations with some of them but nothing more than very surface-level and for them to lose someone like John and immediately be able to turn their focus into you know what's next and what can we do to support Dani, it was huge to hear that and just another sign that this was a great move at the right time," Dani Busboom Kelly said.

She also opened up about her feelings for Louisville, stating that the team will always hold a special place in her heart.
