Ok that's nice, but that's '25 not '24. m confused! What are you talking about? I think it’s because we need good passers earlier than our ‘25 class... I’m hoping for some hardcore passing improvement during the off season or a good portal pickup for ‘24 🤞

I know, how DARE we speculate about the future of Minnesota in a thread titled... *Checks thread title, squints eyes* ..."Future of Minnesota" The pearl clutching and virtue signaling about that is cringeworthy. It's tacky, it is. You're free to be tacky, many are. Please continue to cluch your pearls and feign outrage some more then. Look down on us from your high horse and ivory tower.

Kelly our ‘25 recruit recently posted her HS highlights here. The RS run through pass to the RS kill was a pretty impressive clip. I think we're going to be pretty happy with Kinney in maroon and gold. She's also a great face for the team, well spoken and likeable in every interview I've seen.

Did Hugh during his coaching era have Handley setting for three rotations and subbing her out for Schau for the other three? If that was the case, maybe a Stella/Shaff similarity could be in the works for 2024. Shaff is one of the best Zone 1 defense players out there.

If Shaff stays, maybe playing DS in right back wouldn’t be out of the question. Although, idk how her serve receive is.

Nice to see the Swenson sisters will be enrolling early at the U. We should get to see them this spring.

I bet Shaff would be even better in that role if Stella takes the starting role.

PrepDig just updated their 2024 class ranking and Stella comes in at #8. It is such a great group of setters for that class with #1 Izzy Starck (Penn State commit) and #2 Charlie Fuerbringer (WI commit). It should be very fun to watch them compete in the B1G.

I can’t see behind prepdigs paywall… but according to Stella’s insta she’s #8 on their 2024 recruit list! Congrats to her!

Happy Signing Day, Gopher Nation! It will be just the Swenson twin for this class but still so excited to have them "officially" as Gophers.

AVCA high school All-American list came out and Stella is not one of the 50 players who made 1st, 2nd, and 3rd team. She’s also not one of the 150 players who made Honorable Mention. No MN prep player made the list. I usually don’t complain about these awards but that makes absolutely no sense.
Am I blind and just missed it somehow?
