There is another program out there that, not including transfers, had to deal with 8 scholarship players returning plus an incoming recruit. In addition, half of those will be seniors, so not only will they need a big class (and/or quite a few transfers in) just to get to their standard 11-12 player team, but they will also have to replace those 4 who will be graduation next year.

That program is UConn.

They've had a grad transfer (from Murray St.) and a player from Poland added so far (are either standard level for UConn? Not sure). Also, there is Evina Westbrook who might get immediate eligibility, but that isn't certain.

But my point is that UConn, of all programs, was in that very situation that you said an elite program should never be in.
