Six Seniors graduate from this OU team that lost to tOSU, T A&M twice, Texas, and Ole Miss leaving 110 game minutes and 32 ppg to fill from 6 Sophomores, 2 freshmen and the Junior Paris twins. Woe be OU if anything happens to Courtney.

It's tough to see how OU improves with 6 Seniors including Rush, Welch, Higgins, and Brown gone. Danielle Robinson is Hoopgurlz #21 and 13th ranked guard.
Jenny Vining is Hoopgurlz #33 and the 17th ranked guard

Carlee Roethlisberger is an unranked 3 star prospect

Looks to me like OU is a year away from being a better team. I'll have to run A & M, Texas, Baylor, Texas Tech, and the other Big 12 teams to get a feel for how they stack up but against the nine already profiled I don't see OU in the hunt. Plumley, the Paris twins, and Thompson couldn't get past Ole Miss in April and the new players don't seem to add up to what was lost.
