Not a close follower of women's b-ball, I just know Duke is usually better: 7-8 in the Acc and losers of five of seven. Anybody?

Its time for a coaching change IMO... Gail was "forced" out a few years after she had taken us to the natiinal championship game. It's all been down hill since

Did not know that Gail was "forced out." In retrospect that certainly would have made NO sense. I thought she opted to leave, for Texas, wasn't it?

My understanding (which I could be off basis but from what I gather) was that it wasn't totally her decision to leave. She did go to Texas. I think she was a great coach here as well.. I hope we get a change. Call up Tyler Summitt

She has had tons of talent and can't win with it
That's what I thought, although I know nothing of injuries or other mitigating factors. All I know is we are rated among the top recruiting classes on a consistent basis. We started this year ranked (14) and have gone nowhere but down...presently not ranked.

Over the last few years this team has been loaded, top 3 classes for 3 or 4 years running; however, when watching them play, it is clear that they are poorly coached. They turn over the ball at a rate that you see with JV type basketball. It is time to move on because there is no way a team with so many "state" players of the year should be this bad.

IMO, the coach needs to go. They underperform each and every year with the top notch talent. They've had some really bad losses this year.

as everyone has said the women's coach sucks. I hate it when the girls are highly ranked and get blown out by 30+ against uconn at duke.

Womens basketball? Really? Really? Even Connecticut would be no match against a good high school boys team.;):D

UConn blew out #2 Gamecocks in Columbia. That loss means nothing. I do agree, the current record isn't a good sign.

No you don't understand. It happens consistently throughout the years she has been here. The team performs well against the top 10 and higher but once it gets to the top 5 we get blown out. She's had the #2 recruit before and even she didn't do much.

I admit, I don't follow wcbb, so I will bow out of this. Just pointing out a fact.
