The women’s basketball program was not included in the same NIL collective/Spyre that gets money for the men’s football, basketball, and baseball players, until now, with White’s chosen Coach.So UCLA was able to get 3 top 25 recruits, Texas 2 top 15 recruits, UCONN 2 top ten recruits, Duke 2 top ten recruits, but we didn’t have money for 1?
Agree tha
I agree Kellie deserved another year and that hs recruiting was showing progress. Would have loved for her to have legit NIL to work with.
But, Coach Caldwell did not fire Kellie, DW did. We’ve got to support our new young coach and not be too quick to judge her. There will be growing pains for her in several areas no doubt so we need to take a little longer view. My hope is that she, her staff and especially the players have a great year filled with lots of good memories.
At this point any gripes or frustrations we have belong to DW. For example -we are paying the man how much and he shows up at the press conference to introduce his new coach in a wrinkled jacket and no tie, no tie!! This was not a business casual event! Leave the polyester dockers at home. This was a dark suit and tie event. How many bigger events will he do this year? The flying monkeys will undoubtedly descend now but geezus he is a professional act like it and dress like it!
Nope just saying we pay him a lot so he can afford to dress appropriately. He should want to show how much he respects the LV program and his new coach. He looked like he just ran in from dropping the kids off at swimming.Using your thought process would be similar to saying if Kellie dressed better on the road her out of state recruiting and/or won/loss record vs ranked teams would have improved?
The point is CKJH bears responsibility for the way the roster was going to look if she stayed. She had not gotten the job done in recruiting for years.So when we don’t make the NCAA tournament this upcoming year, who do we get mad at?
