OSU's "game" is going to have to improve a lot next season to have any remote chance of beating Stanford. I don't fully understand how Oregon kept both their games with Stanford close, but the Beavers could not, yet the Beavers beat Oregon 2 out 3 times this season. Also, is there any post-game press conference with Rueck? I keep googling, but can't find one. If Williams and Wilson are gone, OSU has a much better chance. Those two pretty much took OSU out of every set they wanted to run and made life miserable for Talia and Aleah. The Hull twins are also both great perimeter defenders, and they’re still loaded with Jones, Brink, Jump, Belibi, etc., but Williams has been a model of consistency for Stanford and her dependability will be missed next season (assuming she doesn’t return). But yes, agreed. |

It was said that Tara expects her seniors to return. That is her expectation not necessarily theirs. Williams and Wilson could very well go to the wnba.
Regardless if they go or stay Stanford is going to be very good for the next few years at least. I'm interested in seeing if they have any transfer out.

Williams will be drafted by the WNBA if she elects to make herself available. I don't think the same can be said for Wilson, an outstanding defender at 5'9" but not an offensive threat at the next level. I could see both Williams and Wilson returning to Stanford next season to play with a talented core of teammates and a squad that should be the consensus preseason #1-ranked team for the '21-'22 season. |

If Stanford wins it all this year, it may make it easier for one or both of them to move on. If they don’t, the whole “unfinished business” theme can rear (in this case for us and the rest of the PAC-12) it’s ugly head. |

I wonder if we will see Aquino on the floor next year ? She could( I think), be a good stopper for Brink !

Big 12 wrestling championship is going a bit long, pre-empting start of Stanford-UCLA. Super lame. ACC and SEC Championship games were shown on time w/ no issues. Freakin' ESPN.

Now I feel a little less bad about yesterday Stanford up 23 at the half. 43-20. FWIW Beavs down 11 at half vs Stanford. |

Yeah, clearly when Stanford is on top of their game nobody in the Pac can hang with them this year.

I'm not sure anyone in the country can hang with them. They are scary good and it doesn't look like it is going to let up for at least a few years.
