Three more of the freshmen girls from the 2023 class, have just entered the portal, leaving only one, (a point guard who was recovering from an injury/surgery), from a recruiting class of 5. Assuming this is primarily by design, after meeting with the girls, and the coaches having watched these girls in practice, and some very limited game minutes, for a couple of them, for a year. They now will have 6 open scholarships, unless Tameiya Sadler decides to return for one more year, after going through the farewell ceremony, with Jaylyn, Quay, Maddie Nolan, and Charlotte Whittaker. (She does have a potential additional year of eligibility left.) Quite a few spots to fill now, and there lots of very good players in the women's portal available, (several from PAC 12 teams, that the coaches would be very familiar with), and NIL wouldn't be near the big deal it is, for the men. Will be interesting to see who JR can bring into the program, and what the rotation is going to look like next year. Would be great to see a little more size, athleticism, and overall skill, brought in via the portal. She's been very good with attracting quality transfers, to fill specific needs, the past several years, and with 5-6 spots available, she could really do some damage in the portal, to re-make the team, after losing so many starters and rotation players.
