Thread: Today

  1. #1

    Default Today

    Don't ask me why today but it just hit me really hard that our women's basketball team deserves better and the better that they deserve is better Coaching. It is not fair to do this to our team. I am not a really large fan of women's basketball but they are our team and we have to stand by them and not act like they don't really exist! The AD and Savoie need to do the right thing by them and stop asking them to perform under impossible conditions. If they are not going to give them a fair chance then - disband the program. Enough is Enough! Help or get off the pot.

    I must admit that this team was one of the most dysfunctional teams that I have EVER followed or watched in any sport.

    I hope Monday brings a big change for this program!

    I agree. This program spiraled downhill after Rogers took over. I understand not getting rid of him last year when he had a year remaining on his contract, but I fully expect Scott Farmer to do the right thing and fire him. It makes no sense to win only one conference game. Anyone know what his record is at UL? I doubt if he won 15 games while here.

    Um, he was given a 1 year "extension" at the end of last year.

    Really? Hopefully it had a small buyout clause, so we don't have to waste a lot of money to can him.

    I believe his winning percentage was about .251

    And, he shouldn't have to be fired. It will likely be labeled "not returning", since his contact has ended anyway.

    They will likely state a coaching search will start now.

    You can complain all you want, but this school is not going to spend what it takes to get a premium coach. We will have to get lucky. The money goes like this, football, baseball, mens basketball, softball, womens basketball. We reall do not fund the first four fairly how on earth are we going to upgrade womens basketball without a stroke of luck, kinda like when we got Kelly.

    To be fari he lost his two best players and I hear he has a couple of nice recruits for next year, but it will be somebody the worry of someone else.

    I didn't hear anything about an extension, and if its true, the administration needs to be shot in the face, that would be the single most retarded thing they have done. I understood letting him coach to his last year because we didn't have to buy him out, but to extend the worst coach at our school in any sport is beyond stupid.

    I understand that WBB is not a money maker AT ALL here, but we should be taking a gamble with a lowball offer every few years until we hit another J Kelly Hall. Until then, not renewing contracts makes sense, BUT, extending someone as bad as he is IS RIDICULOUS.
