Could we be looking at a WBB roster with no scholarship players from Oregon for the first time in the Rueck era?

I believe so.
Oregon produces little to no talent in the 20-50 range. They’re either top-20 kids who want to go to Stanford or Tennessee or not quite OSU level players. That with the fact that Rueck has a small recruiting pool doesn’t exactly make it surprising.
We did recruit Brink, Yeaney, and Westbrook, but not sure who else in recent years from Oregon.

Aronette Vonleh (former Blazer Noah's sister) is a top 50 player (on some services, #100 on espn) coming out of the state this year. Heading to Arizona. |

Also if Aleah doesn't return the Beav's are up the creek w/o a paddle....not sure about the paddle analogy, but nonetheless. Her suggestions on who would lead the Beav's next year does point out the bleak future for leadership.
Taya- Sophomore Taya I'd say would do a great job, Junior Taya had no fire. In her Sophomore year Taya was rebounding 15-14 in games, in her Junior year her max was 7. All of the guards with serious minutes got more rebounds than she did in the S. Caro. game. And Rebounding is all about the fire. In her Sophomore year Taya was very vocal when she felt the team wasn't giving enough effort. Junior Taya just left it all to Aleah. Maybe if she was the leader Sophomore Taya would return, but that wouldn't be a bet I'd want to make.
Jones- It's very hard to be a leader while sitting on the bench. I think she has the personality to be a leader but....
Brown- If Aleah says she's been vocal then I'll take her word, but Brown's coming off of a major injury and hasn't played this year. Dealing with getting her game together and being the leader of a team when you haven't played with a number of the players before seems like a lot to ask of her.
I really hope Aleah comes back.

She will be only a true freshman, but No. 22 will lead just fine.

Hunter should be on that list.
Talia could very well be a leader some day, just not next year.
