That's because the women's game is seeing more parity than ever before with some really solid mid major programs emerging (Missouri State, Belmont, UCF, FGCU, Princeton, Gonzaga, South Dakota). The transfer rule might not be as terrible as I thought it'd be for non-power 5's as I figured it'd be difficult to build a program with your best players always leaving for bigger programs, but it also allows those sitting on the bench at P5 programs the chance to easily transfer "down" and become impact players at their lower level schools, Creighton's Lauren Jensen is the poster child for that - as she transferred from Iowa after averaging 1ppg with the Hawkeyes and led her Bluejays to a win over the Hawkeyes. The rise of the Big East (it's not just UCONN and everyone else now) in WBB has really helped with parity and is making the tournament a lot more fun as "upsets" are becoming much more commonplace. It's not just the P5 schools dominating year in, year out.
