So, let's just pump the brakes a sec here. From my perspective:
1. Next year Devin would be a third year OPP competing against a two redshirt freshman OPPs - Byrd(?) and Tomkinson 1a. I mean everyone's got Byrd penciled in as OH next year
2. Lauenstein, assuming a lot of guesses comes true, would be a junior, who hasn't played in a year and hit 0.130 and 0.238 her first two years 3. So.....Devin would leave based on the "competition"?
What am I missing here? The "anger" she has at not breaking into the starting lineup?
There's some risk involving adding Lauenstein to the roster and the staff expecting her to win the starting Opposite spot. As you said, she hasn't played volleyball since December 2022. If she's in good to great physical condition despite the recent changes in her personal life, that's quite important as I doubt her arm strength or volleyball skills/instincts have diminished. Her college match experience compared to anyone else we have returning on our current roster is night and day. She started out her sophomore 2022 season at Nebraska on a great run, and then tailed off, I believe. But, her stats are actually quite impressive when you factor in her blocking and service aces. static.huskers.com/volleyball/stats/2022/2022.pdf

Even though the transfer portal is relatively new, Jerritt's history of taking (scholarship) transfers recently seems to indicate they end up being day-one starters, not to provide depth. Carissa Barnes Jenna Wenaas Keonilei Akana Kayla Caffey / Bella Bergmark Jenna Ewert (backup) Madi Skinner Zoe Fleck Saige Torres (probably would have started first season at Texas if not for the late summer graduation from Utah and red tape in transcript) Morgan O'Brien Carissa Barnes Jenna Wenaas Keonilei Akana Kayla Caffey / Bella Bergmark Jenna Ewert (backup) Madi Skinner Zoe Fleck Saige Torres Morgan O'Brien Megan Futch Ebony Nwanebu Tiffany Baker (never played due to prolonged injury recovery) Paulina Prieto Cerame
I think what's made things different is the NUMBER of transfers IN the same year. But also true now it's the number of transfers OUT in the same year.

Went to Whitney’s twitter to sleuth if she’s liked any Texas Volleyball related tweets. First post in her liked tweets was a true jumpscare. Great.

Just liking a bit of light transphobia honestly she can stay in Nebraska with that I’m good. Devin or Byrd will be a great OPP next year.

No, it’s not crazy at all to stalk peoples social media. I wouldn’t say stalking. If there’s rumors of a player transferring, people will look at their social media following to see if the rumors are true. If there weren’t rumors of her transferring or going to Texas, I doubt Texas fans will just be going to her page everyday 😂
