Just don’t see how they can bring back basically the same roster next season without Ryan and expect better results.
Not having massive turnover for the 1st time in two years could help. I've said there was a reason that Ryan and the four sophomores were our best starting line-up. They were the only ones who had been together for at least a year and knew each other's tendencies and the system they were playing in.

I figured about three or four players would transfer. Still think they need to add two starters - a PG and a stretch four - from the portal. Does anyone know of any other visits set up besides Williams?
I really like our stretch 4 but a backup would be good. Quick, hard to stay in front of point guard, wing with quicks also a wish. Hare may already be this player, I just don't know.

Need a lead scorer from guards - 17/20 pts, 7/9 assists. No sugar coating - aggressive.

Needs? IMO point guard first with the ability to score 8-10 per game and compliment Brown with 3-4 assists. Second, a scorer. Ideally someone who can make a quick move inside to give the option of hitting a three or short jumper.
Hopes? Williams develops more as a 4-5. In reality she's still young on experience so there's some hope. Hare being healthy. AJ getting healthy and contributing 7-8 ppg.

100% agree. Also a point guard that doesn’t turn it over 4+ times per game. That’s more important than scoring IMO. Emily was awesome in her career but her health never let her get fully into the flow this year and she had way too many turnovers.

Between this and some other posts on TikTok, there are another five that probably aren't going anywhere since those five are all taking a summer trip to Mexico together.
Help me out because I refuse to get TikTok. Which 5?

Sorry, but when there are people on here actively wanting players to transfer out, you'll have to get TikTok or find someone who has it. I have family members who have TikTok and follow certain players on the team and shared the information.

Hare coming back healthy should help with ball handling and quickness.
In my opinion, zone D might be a better fit for the personnel. Also, at times they just needed to compete more on defense. Turn on a game replay and you will see it.
On offense, we need to cut down on turnovers. Can’t be giving up possessions while also playing pedestrian defense.

Other than the obvious two…I really hope Kelsey stays. But, wouldn’t blame her if she left…she was figuring it out and contributing the last month, then gets chained to the bench for no real reason today. Yes, Tanke hit 2 shots in the first half, after that the quick shot wasn’t advised and they keep her out there (and for the record, I don’t dislike Tanke), I just see the quick hook for Kelsey that I don’t quite understand. But…I just am a fan watching.
I could understand it too but she might want to look at her sister Fritz and the others who left and what happened or didn’t happen for them.

So posting information from Tik-tok on CF might trigger one of these 5 players to transfer. That doesn't make any sense.

That was not what I was trying to do. I was just curious. But i did look on TikTok and cannot find anything.
Yeah idk what he’s talking about, I follow every player on Tik tok, not one of them has posted anything about a trip to Mexico
