Looking ahead to 2025 -
Current roster - 20
Graduating - Skinner, Rutherford, Akana, Wenaas, Franklin
Incoming - Krueger, Vander Wal, Gaido, Spears, Harvey
I would expect attrition from the group that includes non players/barely played in Helmers/Byrd/Bunton/Tomkinson + the unknowns of Swindle and Devin losing their spots mid-season.
Next year's biggest question marks -
Setter - does Swindle leave and who is the backup until 2026, when Harris arrives?
OH - Skinner and Wenaas are gone; we bring in the top 2 OH prospects in Vander Wal and Spears - does one of them redshirt/backup with Whitney getting a starting OH spot and the winner between the two get the other spot?
OPP - does Devin stick around and let Gaido redshirt/back her up for Devin's last year eligibility or does Whitney move to OPP, opening up the floor for both Vander Wal and Spears to start at OH
DS - Akana is gone, 2 6-ro players are gone (Skinner/Wenaas). Is Krueger ready to DS full-time as a freshman? What about Ramirez, Binney or Emereck?
I am assuming we redshirting Harvey.
Perhaps 2025 will be a slightly more experienced version of 2023 Nebraska - Murray was a freshman starting OH (Spears/Vander Wal) paired with a more experienced OH (Batenhorst/Whitney), a very experienced libero (Rodriguez/Halter), a very experienced OPP (Beason/Devin), a freshman DS (Choboy/Krueger(?)), and their MB tandem was quite young (SO Allick and FR Jackson / RS JR Singletary and SO Ames)
