As a result of a post by Bear57 in the 2019 transfers thread, I got interested in how many players there were on current rosters in the WNBA. I took my data from the current Wiki List of current WNBA team rosters, up to date as of this week. There are currently 12 teams with a roster of 12 players each, for a total of 144 active players.
Interestingly, the top 10 teams supply approximately 53 % of all the currently active players
1 UCONN: 17
2 North Carolina:12 (this is a typo - it should be 6)
3 Notre Dame:9
4 Duke:7
5 Tennessee:6
6 Maryland:6
7 Baylor:5
8 South Carolina:5
9 Louisville:5
10 Ohio State:5
11 - 12 Stanford:4
11 - 12 Rutgers:4
13 - 14 Cal:3
13 - 14 LSU:3
15 - 20 Texas:2
15 - 20 Oklahoma:2
16 - 21 Miss. St.:2
16 - 21 UCLA:2
16 - 21 Miami:2
16 - 21 Washington:2
20 - 30 Michigan State:1
20 - 30 USC:1
20 - 30 Oregon:1
20 - 30 Oregon State:1
20 - 30 Iowa State:1
20 - 30 West Virginia:1
20 - 30 Oklahoma State:1
20 - 30 Iowa:1
20 - 30 UT El Paso:1
20 - 30 Texas A&M:1
And I got tired at this point of trying to do the foreign players and other 1 player colleges and quit. I might have missed a school or two in my search but tried to be sure to get all of the ones that were of interest to us.
This list is only for the currently active players. Baylor is clearly a program on the rise. We will add Lauren Cox and Kristy Wallace (assuming she heals - she is still under contract to Atlanta) for sure next year and possibly Juicy Landrum and another if things go as I see them now -- assuming they have good years and no injuries.
In conclusion --- How many players in WNBA from Texas A&M ???
Answer = 1
