Did she have that I have no idea what's going on look on her face?

Yep!!!!! LMFAO

 

[LA Vol]

DD is our only hope of winning. Nobody else wants to take a shot.

That was the one.

If he's a wuss afraid of criticism then he should be canned. This team is bad due to the coach. It's painful!

Well he should be canned no doubt. I'm just saying given the dynamic on campus there's no way he's firing her.

Diamond took a 10ft baseline jumper and hit the side of the backboard!!!
You can't make this up.

Hard to get in a rhythm when you've not played in the 2nd half..

Unfortunate but true. IMO.

Over/under that Holly puts Dunbar in around 4 to go ?

I think at this point that keeping Holly would be a Title IX violation because no men's coach would be retained under these circumstances.

 

[orangealways]

Hit a freaking free throw!!
You are D1 scholarship players !!!

If that's the deal why can't he hire a better "girl" coach?

 

[Volstylexx]

Glad Holly is willing to lose her job to send a message. Pretty dumb.

 

[casetopia]

reynolds missed that shot on purpose. i'm convinced

 

[Volstylexx]

It's very evident, if Holly does stay- several of these players leave.

The team may lack confidence and be in a season-long funk. But we played a pretty decent first quarter--or halfway decent. The players did not just decide after the first quarter to "quit"--that's nonsense. We're just a BAD team. We've been bad all year. We have had a quarter in practically every game this year when we stink up the joint and essentially lose the game. For a good part of the season it was either the third or fourth quarter. Tonight it was the second--3 points! No FGS!. More specifically, we have to be one of the WORST offensive teams in America. I started calling out the BAD offensive coaching in this program /five years before PS retired/--if not before that. PS couldn't coach offense. It was obvious, I railed about it. PS NEVER FIXED IT. HW has the same defense-first philosophy and has been BLIND to our offensive ineptitude since she started. We scored 48 points against Maryland in the Elite Game--offensive cost us the game. Everybody said, oh, it was the injuries. No, our coaches are clueless when it comes to coaching offense. Even so, in BB you can do a lot of things on your own, coaching or no coaching--but our players can't even do that. Maybe we'll score 45 tonight--if we rally--and win!

I agree with everything you said. Pat emphasized defense and gave a lick and a promise to offense. However, she was a great motivator and team leader. She was able to overcame the team offensive lack with these skills. Holly does not have these skills. This is why the team will have a won-loss record of 16-12 after this game.

Holly won 80 percent of the LV games in her first three years as HC because the LVs were a more mature team that did nor require a lot of leadership skills.

Kind of easy to see why her previous college team wanted no part of her and let her transfer to get rid of her and The Attitude.

I hope you're joking.

Are you watching her play ? If a player on another team performed exactly as DD has tonight, I assure you that you wouldn't have a remotely good word to say about her play.

She's the best player and top scorer on the team.

 

[orangealways]

DD is playing like a punk
Pull her .

 

[LA Vol]

We're done. We lose out. A record 15 losses.

 

[volnationnj]

She's the best player and top scorer on the team.

Well then she play like it. Are you watching this game?

 

[westtnvoljackson]

This loss will definitely knock us out of NCAA tourney. No way 13 losses will give us a chance.

 

[casetopia]

it's official. this team stinks and even worse than that they couldn't care less.

 

[1982Alum]

I hope you're joking.

The real joke is her play and complete disrespect for the Orange.
