Message: [QUOTE="Beemer, post: 4644789, member: 5218"] Talent follows the money. It always has and it always will. We're going to see a very different kind of WCBB- the large, wealthy schools (private & public) are simply going to buy the best players. Academics or lack thereof simply won't factor in for the elite players, not when they can become millionaires at 18-19 thanks to NIL. The big factor IMO will be playing time- the more playing time the more money potentially available. I won't be surprised if one & done becomes a trend for elite women players just as it has for elite male players (unless the WNBA balks but I don't think they will, money talks to them too & they're not going to turn down the opportunity to showcase Player X just because she left after only 1 year of college). If you think it is bad now, tune in 5 years from today, it will be worse. Like the Cyndi Lauper song says, "Money Changes Everything" [/QUOTE]
