I personally think that Sherri has proved herself with her successes she has had in the past. This years's team has little height and little depth. It was obvious from the beginning of this season that 2019 would be a bad year and it was.

There was no surprise how this season would turn out.

To which successes are you referring? Some would argue she was wildly lucky with her recruiting and the performance of Stacey Dales.
The Paris twins specifically did not want to go to a blue-blood school and wanted to put a lower prestige school on the map.

After that, what success has she had. Not much.

Sheri Coale has had a hell of lot of successes at OU with many 20+ win Seasons and three 30+ Win Seasons

She has been terrible for nearly a decade now. I mean it's great she had some really great teams years ago, but it's becoming ancient history. Now you can make excuses for her as to why she hasn't fielded a competitive team in years, but in the end it's her responsibility for what happens with her teams.

Coale's W/L percentage is at 65% and she has had some competitive teams.
But losing 33 of the last 55 games may be an indication that Coale has taken the program as far as she can.

Sherri in the last ten years had Seven 20 win seasons
Sherry in the last 14 seasons had nine 20 wins seasons and Two 30 win seasons
So in last 14 seasons Sheri had Eleven 20 and 30 wins seasons.

5 of the last 8 seasons her teams have finished unranked. The other 3 seasons, her teams were barely sniffing the Top 25. She has been terrible for years, regardless of your attempts to gloss over the situation.

Sounds pretty Damn Good to me!

And through all these lofty achievements, Coale’s team can’t get it done in March.
Bull, we are aware of Sheri’s successes, the ones that made her a millionaire.

We all know we will never be a Connecticut. We might become a Baylor

Who is responsible for the lack of height and the lack of depth.

College Coaching: It's not about what you did for us yesterday. It's about what you are doing for us today. There are many examples of early success turning into latter failure. Time does not heal wounds in college coaching. Coale and Kruger should be shown the door. I may get nailed to the cross for making this statement but I felt Bob Stoops was headed down this same path ( and I think he knew it better to jump than be pushed off the coaching pedestal). OU deserves better than what Coale and Kruger are giving them.

Good post. And I also believe Bob Stoops had taken the program as far as he felt he could. Lincoln Riley's presence made the decision an easy one.

I'm so thankful I have Bull blocked so I can't see anything he posts...has done wonders for my BP

Oklahoma plays about 10-11 out of conference games to start each season. MOST of those are against way sub-par competition. That alone should be about 8 padded wins per year regardless of Oklahoma's abilities.

From there, the Big XII pretty much sucks. Outside of Baylor, it's a whole host of mediocrity. That's 18 Big XII games. Go 50/50 in the Big XII, and you're now sitting at 17 or so wins for a season.

Toss in a Big XII tournament win or two and go just over 50% in the regular season, and you've got 20 wins. Don't fool us with the idea that 20 wins is a big deal.

25 wins actually signifies some success in my eyes. How many of those does Oklahoma have in the last 10 years?

I'll give you a hint. It rhymes with Juan.

Sherri has had a 64% winning percentage in the past 10 years. Take away the out of conference cupcake teams like Heller Keller Community College for Brain Injured Paraplegics and it's more like 50%. I'd hate to think any OU Women's Basketball fan calls that successful.

Yes. It's definitely better overall to have a strong women's basketball product. The more sports that bring in more money than they spend the better the overall athletic program is. There's zero to be excited about in the current women's basketball program.

Very true. Hope the program can get jump started soon.

Having been to a bunch of games in the Dales. Paris, etc. years, yes, I care that she has not kept up with the talent level we had.

IMO, there was NO EXCUSE for not winning a title with 1 or 2 of the Courtney teams...
Well, there are some excuses:
OU was not as good as Maryland in 2005-2006, or Tennessee in 2006-2007 and 2007-2008, or UConn in 2008-2009.
OU is 0-17 vs teams ranked number 1.
OU is 0-12 vs UConn.
The Paris twins were not the same players as they reached their junior and senior years.
Sheri's best team was her 2001-2002 team that lost to UConn 82-70 in the Championship Game. Since then, even as Sheri compiled some impressive records, there's always been a ceiling to how far her team could go.
