I doubt any big time coach will come here if they are in a good situation somewhere else at this time. I just mentioned this coach because of her success at Fairfield in only her second year, and her resume of her past experience. I'm just saying, if they make a change they should have many options, not just 2 or 3 that may be on the radar of DW. For the hell of it, here is her Bio:

-recruiting coordinator at Florida under Sue Semrau.
-recruiting coordinator under Vic at Miss St, securing the two top recruiting classes in Miss St history. Been to 2 final fours with Vic and was the main coach for Victoria Vivens.
-recruiting coordinator, later elevated to Associate head coach under Lindsey Whalen at Minnesota. Recruited 2 5 star recruits for the first time in their history.
As I also mentioned before, her brother is the head coach of the Washington Mystics, and her dad is the legendary coach, Mike Thibault. She grew up as a gym rat, and being Mikes daughter she was exposed to his teaching and film and recruiting work.

I just believe she has a tremendous upside and should at least be given a look. This could be a diamond in the rough. Just saying don't dismiss her because she is a mid-major coach right now, they have to start somewhere.

have to admit I have given her a "look" 😉

NOT a fan of either coach South Carolina or LSU
Watch YouTube video Didn't watch whole game
LSU played fouled South Carolina played bY grabbing her waist.
Ref called foul LSU played Was walking away
Then a Second South Carolina saiD something to LSU players . The LSU gave her a push like get out of my face.
TheN Third South Carolina played shoves her to the floor hard.
Refs rule that hard shove was fighting.
That was not enough to start this.
Refs let take after scoring didn't help.
Refs letting teams play to rough helps start these fights
Better refs would solve alot of the games problems

Ok, can Berry come to UT now? Still so confused about her commitment.

But I’m actually surprised Clemson cares enough about WBB to make a change there.

Ruby Whitehorn is the player you would want off that team just a sophomore had a great season. I don't know if Berry had some kind of deal guess we'll find out.

Ajae Petty has entered the transfer portal out of Kentucky

I was going to mention that the portal doesn't open until 18 March, but then I remembered that the NCAA, ever serpentine and obscurantist, allows immediate access for 30 days following the sacking of a coach.Life is too short to memorize all of the fine print. 🤭

Anybody got an information or even a guess of who this is.

Just speculation here but based off what I expect to happen in the next 18-24 months with trouble brewing in the ACC (i.e. FSU and company), Big Ten-SEC "alignment" and the subsequent fallout I think you may see some people in pretty nice Big 12-ACC situations jump into open Big Ten-SEC jobs.

Oh good, sounds much more interesting to read about than the continual suggestions here from ‘I really like Tennessee if they’re not playing my team’ fans, for us, Tennessee fans, that we should fire our Coach, and they have a really good, if not obscure, new Coach to suggest. Makes one wonder why they’re being so helpful.

Definitely not for her coming to TN after what she did to Karoline last year with the hair pull.

Not for it based on her SEC play. Lots of potential but really only plays when she feels like it.

Type of player Baylor will pursue I think or maybe a team like Auburn but Auburn coach not going to go for the 50% effort she gives most of the time.

It may be clickbait, but I am intrigued. I can’t imagine there’s an abundance of programs that would interest “big names.”

After further thought and texting with someone in the Atlanta AAU world I think its Oregon.

Not necessarily what I would call a name but it does have Nike and its headed to the Big Ten.
