This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Thanks. I reviewed the top 13 and found some items of note. by MPG

Wilson, Turner, Mitchell, Atkins, Canada, Williams, and McCarty stayed at their original schools and had successful careers. Of course, we hope that the best is yet to come for Brianna Turner.

Lejahna Drummer has stayed at UCLA despite limited playing time for her first two years and missing her junior year due to injury. She made progress in her 4th year with 6 pts and 6 rebs per game.

Everybody else transferred. Gabby Green from Cal to Loyola Marymount; Jatarie White from South Carolina to Texas, Sierra Calhoun from Duke to TOSU; Recee Caldwell from UCLA to Texas Tech; and Sadie Edwards from Storrs to Southern Cal. All of the transfers seem to have been successful at their new schools, but none have won a championship.

UCLA had the top rated class in 2014 with Canada, Drummer, Caldwell, and your #19, Billings. The best Coach Close could do with that group was an NIT title, an Elite Eight, and two Sweet Sixteens.

Coach Aston had three of the top 13 playing for her this year(Atkins, White,and McCarty) and could only reach the Sweet Sixteen where they lost to UCLA in an interesting twist of fate. She has had three Sweet Sixteens and one Elite Eight during the past four seasons.
