I think they both stay. Neither was satisfied with how the season played out.

Reese has declared. HVL going portal.

I think both could stand another year of growth, and besides the unfinished business, I’m sure NIL is more beneficial to them on the college level at this point than cashing in on the pro level.

But more than anything, I think they need LSU and LSU definitely needs them. Everyone wins when they stay another year IMO.

HVL won't be drafted in the first round but I can see her going to play in Europe. Very few if any second round draftees get signed and / or make team rosters. Next year she has no promise to be a starter so how would she get better. Reese will go in the first round & it seems she's moved on past college life.

Van Lith said something during the press conference that made me think she may be leaning toward staying. She said LSU and Iowa will play again and we'll have another opportunity. It could easily be a slip of the tongue and mean nothing but I'll hope she is coming back.

I'd really like to see them both back.

Reese and Morrow with more support down low with Jersey coming in and a healthy Smith and more experienced ADR.

HVL with another off season and probably more off the ball with more ball handling options.


The team would be really deep. I think depth was one of the main issues this season. And, to have depth (especially experienced, proven depth) you have to keep your pieces intact while supplementing through recruiting and the portal.

Not only that, but they probably don’t want to take a pay cut.

I don’t know that I see HVL staying. She regressed this year basically because she had to learn a new position and it didn’t work out.

I think Reese should leave. All the hate she gets she prob wants to move on. I think HVL returns. If she doesn’t she got bad advice

If Reese comes back, she needs to dedicate herself to basketball and lighten up a bit on the influencer gig and her "brand."

I hope she is capable of that.

Do the women have the same option to enter the draft, get an eval, and withdraw by certain future date? The men can withdrawn as late as 5/29.

Where are they both with degrees? Female athletes usually actually give a shite about academics.

Pretty sure the 9 pm deadline is for declaring for the WNBA draft. HVL could still enter the portal.

I am sure HVL is taking some time with her decísion. I’m also sure she’s had at least one heart-to-heart talk today with CKM who told her kindly but firmly: “If you return next season, you’ll be coming off the bench.”

Never trust your gut. Well, at least not in your case.
