Message: [QUOTE="oldude, post: 3852069, member: 7511"] Something that occurred to me watching last night’s game is the roster depth of both teams and how that relates to the coming logjam in WBB. Other than a few dozen top players headed to the pros, teams across the country, like OR, Stanford, UConn and many others are going to have to manage a situation when players want to come back for a 5th or 6th season because this year doesn’t count towards eligibility, new recruits are coming in and the NCAA has implemented liberal transfer rules. As one example consider the situation of 5th year player Erin Boley. Does she come back for a 6th season at Oregon? Does Kelly Graves even want her for a 6th season or is he looking to give her minutes to a younger player next year? Graves decision could result in either Boley or a younger player seeking PT elsewhere. This type of decision will play out all over the country, in both WBB and MBB, and it will play out for up to 4 seasons as the logjam created by the extra year of eligibility this season works itself out. We’re heading for a Brave New World. [/QUOTE]
