Has this been the @#$@iest 20 days in SWBB history, or what?

 

If true, another spot is suddenly open and I wonder whether Tara would ever reconsider the portal, even if limited to a grad transfer Still a lot of intriguing players out there.

It is not really reconsider the portal, it is that getting transfers in has been very difficult.  Maybe Stanford makes it easier to take transfers for WBB like they are supposedly doing for football.  If so, maybe Stanford joins the arms race in a limited way.  If not, there are not many in the portal who can even be considered.  From tweets posted on Rivals from Betts mother it seems that they did not like how she was used and/or don't like how they think she will be used next season.  I thought she was used basically as she ought to have been since early on she was clearly not quite ready and her playing time increased as the season went on to the point she was playing more than Iriafen some games, Prechtel all or almost all games, and even Belibi some games.  Now maybe the coaches decided that Brink would play primarily the 5, not much at the 4, which would greatly reduce Betts' playing time, as she is a 5, not really a 4.  Does seem early for that sort of decision to be made, but whatever.  She is definitely gone.  Whatever.
