Cook had coached the program for more than 20 years and announced his decision to step away from his role. Murray has also lauded her coach, Cook's contribution in the past several times.

In an interview, Cook revealed that he called in Murray first because he knew that it would his toughest job to share the news with her. Additionally, he also mentioned that once he informed Murray, he dealt with other players quite convincingly. He said (via Hail Varsity):

"I called in Harper first because I knew that it would be toughest one. I didn't even finish the t in retirement and she was very very emotional. So, once I got through that, it was lot easier to go on with the team cause I knew that would be tough one."

Since Cook's retirement, Huskers players past and present like Lexi Rodriguez have expressed their emotions for their former coach. Rodriguez spent all of her four seasons under Cook after joining the program in 2021.

Following Cook's departure from the program, former Louisville coach Dani Busboom Kelly is set to take over the reigns of Nebraska. She had previously served as an assistant of the Huskers from 2012-16.
