Three starters and three who also played (including a walk-on) return from the 2016–17 team. They were joined by one player who sat out last season as a "redshirt" under NCAA transfer rules and two who were "redshirts" as freshmen to strengthen their academics, one new freshman, and three junior college transfers. Additionally, open tryouts were announced to fill any possible roster openings.
