and do you know how many games I watched?
One, the Elite Eight game against UT, because it was one of the only things on TV, and I was on the road that night with nothing better to do.
Basically, there is no reason to invest in the women's team. If you win, good. If not, who cares. Only a handful of women's programs even make money, so it's better to just keep the costs down and let the UTs of the world run all over you.
The only way I'd fire a women's coach is if she was so bad that it got to be embarassing. I think Memphis finally fired their women's coach after about 3 or 4 years in a row of winning less than 10 games for the entire season. Now, if you are that bad that you start drawing attention to your program for how bad it is, then you have to go. But as long as you win 10-15 games a year and don't embarass the school, and as long as you're cheap, I'd keep you.
