As Radar mentioned, the top teams lose significant experience: Rhode Island returns 40%, St. Bona 54%, Davidson 52%, and St. Joe 66%.
I looked at the rosters of the bottom 3, and found it interesting that Davidson’s graduation losses will be mostly in the frontcourt, but Bona’s graduation losses will be almost entirely in the backcourt. Put the two together, and you might have a heckuva squad for next year.

Also, for all those graduation losses, Rhody will still have a decent core to build around. Russell in the backcourt and Langevine up front are pretty good. But yeah, they’ll definitely have some holes to plug.

And I’d imagine that St. Joe’s 66% returning isn’t too far from the norm, when you consider 4 academic classes per team (not including grad transfers), and that seniors generally play more minutes than freshmen (unless you’re UK, where you regularly have tons of freshmen and hardly any seniors).
