Here’s my guess, if the season were to begin today. (Granted I don’t know enough about the TAMU-CC libero against ‘tough’ competition to include her in my thought process. -Wenaas and Skinner will both play 6-ro. With very short leashes for both. If Wenaas can’t terminate, pick an arm off the bench (Devin most likely) and there you go. If Skinner is on the defensive struggle, same story. Theoretically, Wenaas is good enough to DS herself if someone has to come in for in the front row. Let’s be honest, JE and staff prioritize termination, so if that doesn’t step up to meet muster, there are several players who could play front row. -I will bet the entire farm that Halter wears the libero jersey unless the TAMU player is god’s gift. Akana will serve, obvi, but for whom? IDK. My guess is Molly. -Speaking of my girl Molly, this may be controversial coming from me, but I think she gets relegated to first off the bench status at middle and RS. Of all the players in the gym, she’s proven the most consistent in her role. You know what you’re gonna get. So if any middle or RS is struggling, she’s your best option to fix it. I also don’t think JE wants to graduate her, asjia, and Bella without giving their successors plenty of playing time, which my guess affects Molly the most. -for the Skinner can just play 6ro next year comment, that’s not entirely accurate because nothing changes between this upcoming season and the next that would open the door for that. Devin for RS!!! Byrd for OH2 (if wenaas struggles)

But my lineup prediction is OH: Byrd/Skinner (DS: Halter/Barnes for Byrd MB: O’Neal/Bergmark Opp: Phillips (DS: Akana) S: Swindle L: Barnes/Halter I see Wenaas making an appearance if Madi is struggling in the backcourt which could be likely..

I know winning is top priority, but I’m confident it’s possible to accomplish both and still get experience for the future. I also think having a tougher conference schedule will result in more players seeing court time then we’re used to just to keep everyone healthy.

If Molly is first off the bench that’s a hell of a first off the bench. Same for Wenaas.

same except I have wenaas over bryd just because of experience This is what I wanted to go with, but watching Byrd swing on the beach has won me over.. she gets up like she’s not on sand Yeah she is impressively dynamic and physical. Imagine if she Chiakas her way into the starting lineup. We’re so blessed.

I’m going with something crazy y’all. Hear me out.
L1: Byrd (DS Halter) L2: Wenaas M1: O’Neal M2: Bergmark Opp: Skinner (DS Akana only when needed) S: Swindle L: Barnes
Switch Halter and Barnes if necessary. Literally have no idea who’s gonna win the libero jersey.
