Question: Who is the next OU graduate to possibly make a WNBA roster?
 
Maybe Ortiz, She atlest has a chance to be drafted same with ViVi, Dungee and Mulkey could also turn in to pro plays
 
If Peyton plays consistent I could see her making a roster.
 
Maddie is not making a pro roster unless she has some kind of national player of the year list. She has not made a big enough impact.

I hope she does, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Vivi as far as next....Ortiz, if she improves over the next two years

There is always a dearth of good posts and pg's because
the other positions are not as specific as to what you do, more people
can play them. I suppose a real 4 could play post, but it is better
to have a real post, especially with the height of the players increasing.

I do not see anyone from the class of 2017 making it. Someone might
get drafted or offered a contract after the draft, but do not believe they
will make a team. Would love to be wrong.
 
I doubt if Maddie is interested in playing pro ball.
 
I suspect some of them who do not get drafted will get tryout offers after they graduate.

It's too early to be writing Maddie off. Billy Sims certainly did not look like a Heisman winner until his last two years.

Never give up on these kids. As my good friend Yogi said "It's never over til it's over".
 
I'm quite shocked that OUr program has as many WNBA players as almighty Hypocrite U and Texas.
