Could someone please recap for me what happened to the women's team?
I'm sure this is old news, but I've been living under a rock.
I heard they lost five top players last Spring -- two to injury, two to transfers (!) and one went pro early. This that right? What do people think of the transfers?
And, what is the prognosis for next year?
Thank you.

Apparently they stink this year because their talent is down. See if you have talent anyone can
coach. It is tough enough to watch good female players play when they are bad it is horrid.
I saw some of it because it was the preceded the ND men's game on the ACC Network. it was atrocious.
Half the women on the floor look to be out of shape. The athleticism is non-existent, the game is slow, the shots are often hilarious. I have no idea why anyone would pay good money to watch this spectacle, but they do. The women outdraw the men.
It is pathetic. Little to no athleticism. I can't watch it even though of course I hope they win.

went to the uva game a couple of weeks ago.
interesting dynamic. even though they lost 90 - 60, the muffettes have a lot of talent but haven't developed any team chemistry or identity yet. they are inexperienced in the current scheme, but are catching on and will be a force in the near future.
mcgraw is a phenomenal coach. two years ago, she lost 80% of her starting lineup. she adapted her entire season strategy to fit the talent she had remaining.... and won the national championship. i don't care one iota subscript what anyone else thinks - that was an incredible coaching performance.
she's one of the top 5 coaches n.d. has ever had in any sport.
