Todd discusses the impact that Patriot League transfers are having on their new programs, highlighting the depth of talent in the conference.
“There are great players in the Patriot League and you can see from the number of players that have moved on as grad transfers and making an impact in the Power Five leagues. [Lehigh transfer] Frannie Hottinger starts for Marquette. They’re undefeated and she’s almost averaging a double-double.”
