So Kellie follows up her class ranked 15 with another class that won't make the top 10 (barring an incredible unforeseen change). She hasn't had Tennessee in the top 10 at any point in her watch. She finished 3rd in the conference, and her #3 seeded team couldn't win more than one game in the tournament. And she's better than all but 2% how?

As I've said before, you get what you pay for. There's a reason her salary isn't among the top 2% of women's basketball coaches...

Thanks for weighing in again, Holly.

No one said it was about everything like you suddenly want to make it. We were talking about second year recruiting because yes in year three didn't get done what needed to be done. So I guess you need to panic since you think things are going badly. I'm still seeing what happens with 2023 class and portal. I considered the hire a four year rebuild of roster and culture you thought everything should be an instant success. Drawing from your expectations yes it has been a failure for what you wanted to happen. For me everything is going exactly as expected and the goal is to finish better than you started each year and thus far that has happened. Nothing I can say to you since you think the 2021 recruiting class is a failure. I considered the class a huge positive advance. I am disappointed to this point with 2022 recruiting although Justine is a player that will make a huge difference even if she turns out to be the lone recruit. Certainly puts the pressure on to excel in 2023 and the portal 2022 after the season is over. Like I tell posters who are disappointed you have the right to post your opinion just like I post mine. We think about the program in different ways. I look at the progress and you seem to enjoy the failures. I thought I had expectations of a new coach that were realistic and I will continue to believe that because I try to see where other top coaches of the day started and where they are now. Still can go either way with Kellie. I am betting it goes the right way because of the way she is running the program demanding players do the right things while still providing a friendly family atmosphere. My goals are the same as yours I guess I am just willing to give her a lot longer to get it done than you.

Valiant effort Volfan2012...I see the value in your words.

Me and Coach use to try and reason with the guy, but the more positive we were about Coach Kellie, the more negative the negative poster became......It's who he enjoys being...

Dearth panics when things go well. It is his fondest hope that Kellie fails. He will do everything he can to make LV fans question her. This includes denigrating our players and recruits. He is not an honest broker on this forum.

I saw a picture of Justine standing next to Janiah Barker and they looked to be the same height. Janiah stated that she was now 6’4 if that helps.

I agree with you on most everything and I respect that you don't carry the water for Kellie like so many others here. This upcoming year Kellie has a lot to prove, both on the court and in recruiting. Where we differ is I am far less confident she will get it done than you are, based on her extensive head coaching history and the red flags we've seen since she took over here...

It's justified to carry water for her when addressing you - because you carry gasoline for her.

No, she doesn't. She's already proved that she is a very good basketball coach. You, on the other hand, have a lot to prove - that you aren't a troll for some other team or coach.

Fake narrative. Her extensive coaching experience includes the only coach in hisotry to take four different teams to the wncaa, and to take a mid-major to the sweet sixteen. After only two seasons, and after showing a lot of progress for the program, you are flying the white flag of surreneder.

I am 100% behind Coach K and will be until I have reason not to be,,,and right now, I think she is on pace....The next "mark" is keeping that pace progressing.

C Go get em Coach K !
You've got some "Pat"-like swag,,,that's half the journey...
A coach has to be more "media-wanted" and visible than the team for the team to gel and focus.
Golf-cart karaoke,,,tic-toc Thursday ...coach's shows...as long as the spotlight is on Coach K, the team can grow and once the team matures,,, let it, outshine the coach.

I think the lie you like to believe is the word 'extensive'. Because you can not take the totality of her coaching and make the comments have any validity. In order to have your take you can only focus on her NC State term. Where she had an overall winning record but did not fare well in the SEC. Her overall coaching career is very good and has been a winner everywhere. But you enjoy being objectionable so feel free to continue. However you would have a little (very little) more cache if you did not rely on a falsehood to perpetuate your perniciousness.
