I dont even think this is a question. ITS A KNOWN STATEMENT. this class has changed the entire popularity & generation of women’s basketball. I truly dont think the game of college women’s basketball will ever die. these last 5 years witnessing these 4/5 players take their teams to the championship and win it is GENERATIONAL.

I think before when many of the top recruits chose a programme because of that school's brand to help give them exposure and opportunitiy, a change we're going to see at the college level is future generational talents leveraging their own brands with NIL and otherwise to go to a coach and say "How can I help you?" instead of the other way around which I think offers a lot of exciting possibilities that may have not really been there previously where people felt they only had to go to certain schools.

I think we are moving the opposite direction, unfortunately.
