2026 Transfer portal

All three of the girls in the portal from Oklahoma state would be great additions to our team. Going off todays game we definitely need to upgrade our bench production and order to be able to contend with teams like South carolina, lsu, etc.. In all those blow out losses our bench produced very little for us when our starters were struggling. It'll mean the difference of if we take several steps backwards next season losing Beers and Verhulst, or if we actually improve our athleticism and get better. If she does nothing like last season and gets nobody I fear we will be 8th to 10th place type of team in the SEC.
 
With portal season you never know until the window closes but this video clip from Aaliyah sounds like she and the core of the team are coming back.

Scary bad? OU could be in MAJOR, MAJOR trouble if they don't get a proven center. Like, bottom third of the SEC trouble.
 
Thank You Raegan, Payton, & Beatrice

Welp, next up is Portal season and cannot stress enough how big it is this time. Jennie & Co HAVE to be strong and aggressive.

Also, April 13th is a date to pay attention to. That’s the 2026 WNBA Draft, right now Raegan Beers looks like she could go in the 2nd round and Payton Verhulst looks to be a 3rd round prospect.

If our 2 are drafted that would be another thing to help in recruiting.
 
Any feeling on who could leave? The only one I can think of is Smith. She could probably get good playing time at a smaller school but I also think playing for Oklahoma was a childhood dream. Its so hard to tell but I think our retention will be good. With that said, if all stay our roster is at 11. We have room but if the coaches like the smaller roster we may only be looking for a center. I would say two centers but who wants to transfer just to ride the bench.
