The last bit of confetti from today's championship might still be floating around the arena but that doesn't stop looking ahead to next season. In ESPN's Way-Too-Early Top 25 for 2024-2025, Texas checks in at #2. From what Vic has said, Rori's rehab is going phenomenally well <knock wood>. DeYona hasn't officially announced she's returning but neither have Shay or Taylor but I'll be surprised if they don't.
There is still a lot that could change and teams could look very different between now and May 1st when the portal closes. As of today 1,059 players have entered the portal and only 73 have announced/committed to a destination.
Paraphrasing Vic: "Paying rent in the Top 25 won't cut it, a lot of teams do that. We want to own property in the Top 5."
Their Top 10:
Expect Madison Booker to slide back to the wing and form what could be the nation's best backcourt with Rori Harmon returning from knee injury. Aaliyah Moore and DeYona Gaston are expected to anchor the frontcourt, and Vic Schaefer has two top-10 recruits on the way in 6-2 Justice Carlton from Texas and 6-0 Jordan Lee from California. The Longhorns might not be battling South Carolina for just SEC supremacy. This could be a season-long battle to be the top team in the country.
