Maybe, but don't forget while Baylor loses a TON this year, they still bring back Simms and Prince. I'd say at this point, Baylor won't likely be a top 10 team after BG et al graduate, but that's more because you lose Pope, Williams, Hayden, and Madden to go along with Griner.Stanford had to play Chiney 40 minutes, Tinkle 39 minutes and Orange 36 minutes to win. This doesn't bode well for them. I think the drop-off after Baylor, UCONN and Duke is pretty deep. Life after Nneka is going to give Baylor fans a good preview of what life will look like after BG.

Who do you have coming in for 2013? none of the kids are top 20 IIRC, but are you likely to land any other kids? Honestly, i wouldn't be surprised to see Baylor slip out of the top 15-20 next year, but I really have no idea how other teams will look after this year so I could be off...
Ahh...the underrated Higgins and the explosive Chandler.No top recruits next year. Some decent guards but no all-America types. Next year will be a lean year but hopefully Kim can land some of the top talent in 2014.
I think we will hover near the top 10 but not much better. I do think that Higgins has a tremendous upside at the center position and that Chandler will return to her pre-injury form. She kind of looked like a fish out of water in Friday's game but that is to be expected after being away from competition for two years.

I'm looking forward to watching their progress.
