That was my first guess but I'm hoping for unselfish option where one of the local players gives up their scholarship to make it work, maybe MT can give her the equivalent of a scholarship in additional NIL moneyUnfortunately it puts them 1 over next season the 15 scholarships available with only 5 graduating this season. Surely someone will transfers out, because of playing time. The reality is only so many play (especially given Insell's history), but I feel VERY confident they won't lose production year-over-year, like we've seen the last 4 years returning all meaningful minutes every season (with the exception of Grabovskaia).
2025-26 is shaping up to be a solid group that will earn quality PT early in their careers. It will be underclassman heavy, so I wouldn't be surprised to dip into the transfer portal again in summer '25 and get some added experience to team up with Ta'Mia.
There are a couple on the roster that i kept waiting all offseason for them to transfer and didn't. I think it speaks well to the culture MT has created that they want to stick around.
Assuming nobody in this class flips, really nice to have a class of this size locked a few months before the season even begins. If this is the kind of class that people remember if everything goes right
