Future Rosters

Her mom played for SDSU for a season. Kratovil - married an O'Neill. Daughter made is to state in track and is very athletic! She might be a mid to high major track & field athlete. On her O'Neill side, the family is legendary in West River for volleyball. We shall see how it pans out! If I recall, Kratovil left SDSU because she was well off already and didn't need the schooling.

Believe that is BB player - Reagan O'Neill - loved her confidence, agility, and rim runs.

Bennett Country GBB - anyone familiar with their young, young players? Saw a 3x3 competition in Rapid that had an OMG, athletic 7th grader - do not want to mention the name yet, just looking for DM or info on her - will get to Bennett Cty games next season for sure to confirm.

Saw a team picture on Twitter from summer workouts and was surprised to only see 12 players. Checked the roster and it appears they are going with only 12 compared with 14 last season. Guessing that it's pretty late to be adding anyone from the portal ?

Yes - the last COVID BULGE year is 24/25; the HS class of 2021 experiences competition from older players for their entire college eligibility (of four years).

So I guess they don't get the 5th yr because they never lost one of their four years of eligilbility, but they have to play their entire four years against older competition,without getting to play as an older player themselves, sounds just like an NCAA thing.Can't wait for normalcy to return.

Isn’t there up to 4 years of the extra year? If a frosh in 20/21…. You’d have 21/22, 22/23, 23/24 and 24/25… correct? So there would actually be 2 more years of affected players?

2023-24 marks the last season with extra COVID eligibility, which has curtailed PT for younger classes/teammates in the P5 and most teams.

The extra COVID year with NIL money keeps about 400 older, experienced women on college rosters, and active in the transfer portal.

In 2022-23, SDSU frosh played 32.1-min/game. This investment will pay off as the COVID bulge runs its course. In both upcoming seasons, Paige and Haleigh lead experienced, elite teams.

I don’t think so. Cubby’s and BeWell have deals with a lot of our athletes. Great to see.

I loved seeing Mya on the commercials. I can't help but think if we could get our crap together as a fan base we should be able to set up a collective for the women's team. We can't compete with the top 100ish , but maybe we can provide enough to help our Rabbits and also draw a few from lower levels or even in conference. I would love to do it for all sports, but men's basketball and football are less likely to be impacted by our limited donor base, IMO.

Is there any way to find out who has the highest NIL in the Summit?

Hoosiers relevant in WBB?

I KNOW RIGHT!!
it seems a bit hard to believe because they have definitely NOT always been

but they were a #1 seed in the ncaa tourney this year. not gonna pretend i know for sure what they have coming back. pretty sure i do recall they were kind of similar to VT led by an inside / outside combo of 2 players. again NO guarantees but i think at least one of those 2 if not both are back. OBVIOUSLY i could go look at their roster but i dont feel like looking up indiana hoops sorry

but to your question yes at least last year they were relevant
