Looked back at the stats from 2016. Snyder avg 3.6 kps and quietly hit .295 and had 2.6 digs per set and made honorable mention. If anyone had those numbers this year, they'd easily be on at least the second team. Interesting to see one year's All-American teams compared to the next (as far as stats).

I don't like talking much about next year when there's still hopefully so much to happen this year, but here's what I project:
OH1: Hall (6 rotations) - Fr. OH2: Greer (Hammons plays back row; we'll keep the constant back row attacking option) - Jr./So. RS: Warner - Fr. MB1: Kramer - Jr. MB2: King - RS So. L: Gregory - Jr. DS: Fischer - Fr. S: A. Monserez/Huskey - RS Sr./Jr.
We'll need Huskey to keep blocking with Alhassan and Joseph leaving. Hopefully Kramer keeps improving as well.
Kellum will likely be relegated to the bench her whole career. I foresee whoever the better blocker is winning out between her and King. With that said, I don't think there's much of a gap at all between Kramer and King's offense and hers. If one of them has an off day, then Kellum will be in the match quickly.
M. Monserez will likely redshirt and potentially not play much in 2019 either if Huskey keeps improving (remember, Cheyenne's setting experience is minimal so there's opportunity for exponential improvement)
Dooley - I foresee her taking much the same path as M. Monserez. Redshirt in 2018 and not play much in 2019 as she waits for Kramer to graduate.
Young team, but that group, minus A. Monserez, will have 2 years together to gel.

Why does everyone keep talking of Huskey's "minimal" setting experience? That was her position in club ball.

I love talking about next year! I agree with everything here. The only thing that is somewhat question for me is Warner's transition to the college game. If it's smooth, then this is a scary good team.

In Texas, high school is just three months to stay in shape as many players don't play their true position based on the talent of your high school team. For nine months of the year, Huskey was a setter. That's far from "minimal" experience.

Unless Greer makes huge strides in the spring, I just don't see her becoming a starter. She has her okay moments, but I just see Hammons or Mia making bigger strides in the offseason. I don't care who it is, really, just as long as someone steps up to help Thayer next year. I think Warner will be just fine on the right. I agree I think Marlie will redshirt in 2018, but I see her taking over in 2019. Sorry, Cheyenne. Also, I can see Kellum being the other MB. She kicks ass when she comes in and is really good on the slide. But I know King has a lot of potential too, so that should be a fun battle. Am I the only one concerned about Gregory at the L? She is a pretty good defensive player but I think her passing needs a lot of work. Hopefully she embraces the role next year and works hard in the offseason.

Hammons will be a major factor (kid has “it”) and our back row will be a major issue if they don’t find the right combo. Similar to year after Unroe and gang left. Warner will be fine but she will have freshman growing pains that the fans and staff will need to give her time. I’m sure they have a plan there. Setting will be what it is at UF. NextGen ain’t changing that. Thayer Hall is a beast. They keep her head on straight and that kid will be FPOY.

NextGen ain’t changing that. Thayer Hall is a beast. They keep her head on straight and that kid will be FPOY. I also agree with your statement. I have seen Kellum get in and her slide is pretty nasty. You have to like that front row blocking of Husky because it is a game changer. As for the new class coming in I do see Fisher/Cerame giving Gregory a run for her money. Thayer is Thayer. I also agree that they have a plan for Warner but also agree she will be ok. I do worry about Soko not so much about Greer. I think Greer gets another chance. I am going out on a limb and saying that Marlie might get an opportunity to step up. Dooley going to school early is the best case scenario. With that she will be ready to contribute next season.

Huskey was a setter in HS just not the only setter. They ran a 6-2 quite a bit
As for OH for next year i dont see Greer in the picture as a starter. Maybe i am wrong but she has been backup nearly all season and the number one recruit coming in along with Mia could have her on the bench again next year. She could maybe shift to RS next year but you also have Warner coming in and Mia as well in the mix.

I have to agree with a previous post. I think Coach Wise will keep Hammons in the back row. Mia has had her chances in the front row and has not been consistent. That is why I said Greer might get that nod in front row.

Maybe Huskey could be Warner's backup as a right side hitter. I know it sounds crazy because she hasn't hit in college, but she hit in a 6-2 during high school. They could switch to the 5-1 with allie if Warner is struggling and that way Huskey still can block and take a second ball if need be. Or would that throw off rotations? I'm not the best at keeping track of that. Other than that, I would assume Mia is Warner's back up.

But that also means that Huskey would have to play backrow defense as well as set the right side, which she wasn't done at all this year (wit the exception of a few slides). Not saying that she can't; just that there are other things to think about too. I'd have to agree that Mia is Warner's backup.
