It made no sense for Gardiner to come here and compete with Brink, Belibi, Betts, Prechtel, and Iriafen, three of whom can race baseline to baseline.

Makes little sense for Nnaji to come here, either, but Stanford is the dream school for most Hopkins kids.

Still like the idea of Londyn Jones in lieu of a big, for a class or Betts, Rice and Jones.

By the time the Class of '22 arrives to play, Belibi and Prechtel will be seniors and Brink will be a junior, so they would only have a year or two. Both Belibi and Prechtel has yet to show consistent offensive performance from the paint either. Prechtel is mainly a shooter right now and Belibi hasn't shown that she can adapt to better post defenders yet. Betts, if she fulfills her promise as the #1 recruit, will get extensive playing time, though. 

Oregon State will definitely have more opportunities for post players, but Iriafen will only be a year ahead of the '22 recruits and as shown this year, if you can show better performance, like Brink has over Belibi and Prechtel, you can get more playing time and even a starting role, regardless of year.

Definitely, premiere guards will be the priority. Losing Gardiner would not be as stinging as losing Rice or even Jones as we need top guard play to complement our posts and match up against the likes of Bueckers and Fudd at UConn or Raven Johnson and Saniya Rivers, the #2 and #3 recruits of the '21 Class, both guards, heading to play for Dawn Staley at South Carolina.
