19. Utah Utes

Lynne Roberts now has the talents of two Pac-12 Freshman of the Year winners to call upon. Gianna Kneepkens won the honor in 2022, and 2020 winner Alissa Pili recently joined the Utes as a transfer from USC. Pili has dealt with injuries over the past two seasons after scoring 16.3 points per game two years ago. If she’s healthy, her skills as an interior scorer will complement the perimeter games of Kneepkens and fellow Pac-12 All-Freshman Jenna Johnson, Utah’s leading scorer this season and the program’s best in the last 13 years.

Really hoping attendance takes a step forward this year after last year’s tremendous success. That is the advantage that the “traditional powers” have in WBB – it’s a lot more fun to play in front of 4K+ fans every home game. Of course that doesn’t matter for every recruit but it certainly does for some.
