well next year South Carolina now loses not only Coates, but also Davis and Gray who both declared for the WNBA draft.

Each of them transferred to South Carolina and had to sit out a year, so I hope they are both graduating.  It is not necessarily declaring early from the academic standpoint.  If they are not graduating, then that would make me squeamish that the national champion was powered by two players who each played a single year for their program and left with eligibility remaining.
