Been checking for the Kellie defenders. Nowhere to be found for some reason.

It's been Walz for years. Go hire the man or stop promoting the program as anything of value.

If the former, be firm with the vocal minority of LV donor/fans that are stuck in yesteryear. If the latter, fire Kellie and promote an aassistant to save money. Outside of Rickea there is nothing on that roster worth paying one dollar to see.

I’m not a fan of her but hope we hire away South Carolinas coach. We should be able to hire whoever we want. And a coach of that caliber combined with our program could put pat and geno records on watch.

is Walz a huge improvement…. He hasn’t made the championship game since 2013…. and only made one final four since….. Last year… he lost to South Dakota State and Middle Tennessee State.

How does that happen? Asking as someone that didn’t really play much baseball growing up.

it comes close all the time… Kids swinging bats warming up all the time…. Other kids walk close enough to get hit with neither kid paying attention… in this case …. one kid was inside the net taking batting practice …. The kid that died leaned against the net and the back swing hit him in the head.

or they are just tired of dealing with Mincey.

Most likely this. There have been rumors of Mincey being a headache to deal with. (I have no first-hand knowledge.) So, IF he has been asked to leave, it could be they feel his replacement is already on the roster. Maybe someone like Sham? Or they could feel good about getting a replacement in the portal.


But I really hope we get Seaton.

One instance where it was reported that he wasn’t pumped about changing positions from the one he was brought here to play. I mean dang, Sampson has given more reason to be labeled a “headache”. Erroneous assumption

Honestly, UT got lucky with Pat. If we hired somebody today that had Pat's resume at the time we hired her, this fan base would have a Chernobyl-style meltdown.

Nobody cared about women's basketball at that time they hired her. I woke up to find that Kellie lost to MTSU by over 10 points.

No one cared about WBB when Pat was hired. No one has done more for the sport than Pat Summitt. She created a legacy like no other.

Stay or go with Mincey, I think we get our offensive needs addressed. Hoping so anyway. It's our defensive needs that worry me. So much defensive talent in the portal and we seem to be sitting on our thumbs.

There are a few over on the LV forum standing up for her saying that it’s about more than basketball that that she’s developing the next generation, but most of the blind CKH supporters have been AWOL.

About more than basketball??? She’s getting paid a million to develop the next generation? What a beta comment! I’ll take half that salary and develop them into outstanding human beings. My word what a pansy comment!

Tennessee is a better job than Louisville and Walz is the best non championship coach in WBB with 4 final fours and 2 runner ups. 78% win percentage which is above 80% the last 10 years. 40-14 in the tournament and routinely gets to at least the elite 8

He has been at Louisville for 17 years…. he has had the ability to build that brand…. He is a good coach but made one final four since 2013….. lost to MTSU and South Dakota State last year and already lost to Alabama this year…. It is harder to judge women’s basketball than others bc ( even though it has improved) competition is not a great as in other sports.

Also Walz built Louisville literally. All of their accomplishments came under his arrival. With Danny White’s resources and Tennessee’s history he’d be really dang good

Unless things have changed within the program, they won't hire outside Pats/UT players, and they most certainly will not hire a man.
