Which top seniors will return for the 21-22 season?

[dws3665]

I'm interested in the Texas A&M seniors. Pretty huge for the SEC race.

Arkansas also is interesting situation.

I assume Rennia Davis is going.

Hearing some rumblings about at least one of Arkansas's super-senior guards sticking around. Almost certainly not all three, though.

Anthony Anderson of the South Bend Tribune says ND senior post Mik Vaughn is thinking of moving on, but is still considering her possibilities.

As DaBall noted, UNC graduate and current ND grad student Destinee Walker will move on after two years at South Bend.

And Nicole Benz, the former manager who joined the team and garnered a championship ring her freshman year, and then a full scholarship her senior year, has a non-hoops job set up in Chicago. Given her reported stellar academic record, I'm sure it's a good one. She got her first action of the year when she started for the Irish against FSU last night.

That's it for the Irish!

@DaBball I see you cited the link for UCLA but not UNC. Did you think the UNC article wasn't as conclusive?

For Stanford, Tara said in a recent video (sorry, I forgot which one) that she'd like Kiana Williams to come back. I don't know how likely that is to actually happen.

Braxtin Miller will return for Ohio State. Haven't seen anything about grad transfer Tanaya Beacham staying around. Those are the only two on the team whose eligibility would run out in a typical seaon.

I can't find a link, just heard BTN analysts say it whenever Ohio State plays.

One player not mentioned so far: Evina. I find it interesting that the CT press has not asked her or Geno about it.

Time and place.

Before Covid, the media would have access to the players after practice at Gampel or the Werth Center. Now, it's a matter of which players are made available via zoom. I'm not sure when Evina last appeared on a zoom availability but it wasn't at a time when her returning would be a burning question.

Now, with the end of the regular season approaching, I would expect the question to be posed to Geno and Evina if the media has access to her.

Gondrezick said this was her last season even before it started.

What a great senior night for one of the PAC-12’s very best.

Sounds like Patterson will not return.

Braxton Miller of Ohio st coming back.

Women’s Basketball: No. 15 Ohio State falls to No. 11 Indiana 87-75 in final home game

Through the struggles and strife of a season marred by a pandemic and infractions, Ohio State failed to put up one last home win for the Buckeye faithful in Columbus. No. 15 Ohio State was defeated by No. 11 Indiana 87-75 Saturday at the Schottenstein Center behind a robust offensive effort from...

This potentially will have HUGE implications for who will be the top teams next year.


It's all water under the bridge, but I can't help but think how much timing and bad luck can effect someone--Kat Tudor got to play 3 1/3 seasons while a bunch of players are potentially going to be able to play 4 2/3 seasons. She was just born 1 year too early.

No doubt a killer for her and Oregon St

I thought most seniors participate in senior day activities. Are they saying because they did so that they intend not to return?

Some are not participating if they've decided to come back next year.

Vanderbilt sounds like they are losing a player to the pros. 3rd leading scorer

At Senior Day today, Tara said she would like all three seniors to return and she's ordered their jerseys for next year. Fan thinking on the Cardboard is that none of them are really likely to come back, though. Alyssa Jerome doesn't play a lot, Kiana Williams is projected at least by some as a second round WNBA draft pick, and for Anna Wilson this was already her 5th year.

Too bad for her there are no major schools in Texas who take transfers.

 

[bearforce]

In the Texas/Baylor postgame interview Kyra Lambert said that she will not return. Said 6 years was enough.

I would think “top seniors” would most likely be eyeing and being eyed my the WNBA. What is considered a “top senior”?

 

[Baylor1994]

I feel like she would benefit more from another year but hope she gets drafted

 

[Vowelguy]

On edit,
Even without Vaughan, ND will have 14 = return 12 + frosh Citron + transfer Dodson.

Even without Vaughan, ND will have 11 = return 9 + frosh Citron + transfer Dodson.

I can’t see Vaughn drafted. Can any of you guys?
