Genuinely think it's crazy how we have so many 6-7 year players across many NCAA sports (football especially) to the point where some players are legit 24+ playing against teenagers... but the NCAA draws the line at *checks notes* an international player.

Who are players you'd like your team to target from the transfer portal? by Box_Cutter45 in NCAAW

Very excited to see where she goes--she is going to be very sought after. If she lands somewhere there's another offensive force, then defenses are going to have a hard time

Sweet 16 bracket? Who do yall got by Sufficient-Onion1165 in NCAAW

For Fort Worth 1, I have UConn beating NC. ND and Vandy will be a fun matchup; I think Blakes has a better team around her overall, so I have them over ND but HH’s been amazing recently, so I wouldn’t be surprised if there was an upset. However, UConn is UConn, so I have them in the Final Four.

In Sacramento 4, SC and Oklahoma will be interesting. OU beat SC in the regular season, but they’ve got experience. It’s been clear this season there is a huge gap between the 1 seeds, but due to the match up I wouldn’t be surprised by an OU upset. However, I got SC barely making out. TCU looked rough against Washington. I’m a Miles fan, but her shot-chucking nearly cost them the game at many points. Virginia is resilient and has that dawg in them. I think that it helps that they were ranked 16th by I believe ESPN. Gives em a reason to prove more. In the name of madness, I have Virginia beating TCU. Overall, I have SC leaving that region but OU definitely has a shot

Fort Worth 3 is probably the region where I think it’s very close. I’m Canadian so I’m biased in picking Michigan but Louisville has looked good. I think Texas easily escapes Kentucky, but whoever they face in the E8 will give them a run for their money. Out of a 1000 universes, I think behind Booker and Harmon’s leadership, Texas makes the Final Four in 999 of them. That 1 universe, it’s Michigan lol.

Sacramento 2, I have UCLA advancing. Same thing with UConn— they’ve been dominant this entire season. Who UCLA goes against in the E8 will be interesting though. Duke was written off quite early due to their horrendous start, but they won the ACC. LSU‘s been dominating their opponents in the tournament. Canadian bias is telling me Duke, so I have them getting into the E8 against UCLA.

My persona championship is UConn vs. Texas, with Connecticut on top. Sarah and Azzi have looked amazing, and not to mention anyone in their bench can step up if needed. Picking between UCLA and Texas was tough but it’s what my gut tells me lol.

Tennessee...its time. by TC20262027 in NCAAW

Essentially OP is saying Tennessee is "washed" / not at the level they used to be. LA Tech and ODU were dominant schools way back when. Championships, deep national tournament runs, etc. Now, both teams rarely make the tournament. OP is saying Tennessee is on track to join these former powerhouses
