So sad.
I hope we can get back to having some elite women's sports teams someday soon.

Unbelievable. From where the Ducks were a few years ago, and it wasn’t just one player like Sabrina, to the dumpster fire in such a short time. Are there new assistants that are not up to the task? Graves can’t go from a most likely final four, or championship caliber coach, to awful that quick. Is NIL lacking for womens BBall? I just can’t grasp it.

So next year UO team could be a team full of non power 2 level players? Good thing Graves has a giant buyout

Is Graves already done with transfer ins?
He seems to be awful in the transfer game.
Other than Endiya and Minyon of course.

They've barely even started having visitors. It'll pick up in the next few weeks and they'll likely still be adding players into May and June.

OSU has now lost all their starters and their rotational reserves except 1. Was kind of expecting this but thought their Elite 8 run this year might have given Rueck a chance at keeping some of them. 4 of the top 10 best players in the transfer pool are from Oregon and Oregon State at this point. As good as recruiters of high school talent Rueck and Graves are, Rueck will be hand-cuffed like crazy trying to bring in blue chip replacements even if more of them enter the pool.

I bring this up because if Graves is let go, Rueck would be my number 2 target after Campbell as a replacement. He would have better assets at Oregon then OSU by a mile to get and retain HS players and I dont think OSU can afford to keep him anymore.

I mean he was in the same position last year and didn't do any dent with transfers. I guess the staff is just relying on people walking in and signing.

Ducks have added Arizona G Salimatou Kourouma. Former Ohio Valley Conference POTY at Arkansas-Little Rock before transferring to Arizona, where she was only able to play 13 games before going down with a season-ending shoulder injury.

UCSB F Alexis Whitfield is the newest addition to the WBB roster. Started her career at Washington but transferred to UCSB and became a All-Big West First Team selection this past year.

Ehis Etute as a rugged small forward can be a matchup nightmare for lots of teams but is too small at 6'0" to defend the post. There is a big hole at back-up center/power forward to fill. Currently in the pool I don't think there are more than 10 players suitable for 20 minutes a game in that role in our new conference. Fingers crossed we snag one of those. On the other hand I would rather be undersized in WBB than big with horrid outside shooting.

https://texassports.com/sports/womens-b ... mmad/12619. My 1 want and team need is more size, she'd look great in green and yellow. Any idea why Aaronette Vonleh wasn't interested? She just committed to Baylor.
