One of the best to ever wear the Red & Black, Kacie Rubin (née Evans) joined Tom Black's coaching staff as an assistant coach in 2025.
Rubin's first season on staff saw her heading up coaching the Bulldogs' back line defense. Under her guidance, Georgia finished seventh in the SEC with 13.85 digs per set. The Bulldog defense helped hold opponents to a .202 hitting percentage, the sixth-best in the league. Rubin helped coach Bianna Muoneke to AVCA All-America Honorable Mention honors, AVCA All-Southeast Region honors, and All-SEC First Team status in 2025.
In her five-year career in Athens, Rubin garnered 2022 AVCA All-America honors, was a three-time All-SEC performer, earned AVCA All-Region honors, was the 2019 SEC Freshman of the Year, and was the AVCA Southeast Region Freshman of the Year. She became the fifth member of Georgia's 2,000-Point Club (2,057) and is the most recent member of Georgia's Double Grand Club, finishing with 1,768 kills and 1,127 digs. She was a three-time SEC Player of the Week and a five-time SEC Freshman of the Week in 2019.
The Bulldogs appeared in the NCAA Tournament in 2019, Rubin’s freshman season, for the first time in six years. In 2022, Rubin helped lift Georgia to an NCAA Tournament first-round victory, the Bulldogs’ first since 1995. Georgia appeared in three NCAA Tournaments in Rubin’s five seasons.
Rubin broke Georgia's career sets played record (517) and finished fourth in kills (1,768), third in attacks (4,527), fifth in aces (166), and fourth in points (2,057).
Off the court, she was a member of the 2023 SEC Volleyball Community Service Team, appeared on two SEC Fall Academic Honor Rolls, and the 2019 SEC First Year Academic Honor Roll.
Following her amazing career at Georgia, the Wadsworth, Ohio, native signed an undrafted free agent contract with the Atlanta Vibe on Dec. 11, 2023.
