Sure, the champs (still getting used to the sound of that?) lost a ton of talent to the WNBA. But there's an exciting class heading coach Dawn Staley's way.

The most intriguing is Elisia Grissett, a 6-foot-1 wing from Hillside (Durham, North Carolina). The ultra-athletic Grissett is ranked 23rd and has as high a ceiling as anyone in the class.

Also headed the Gamecocks' way is Bianca Jackson, the Alabama Gatorade player of the year who averaged 24.8 points, 7.8 rebounds and 5.2 assists as a senior. No. 48 LaDazhia Williams and Haley Troup round out the class.
