    Diamond out!!

    As much as we can armchair her decision as to the who's, the what's and the why's, this program has a problem and it doesn't sit at the feet of DD or any of the other players IMHO. This is a coaching issue. And if you inherit talent as a result of your program you will win some games along...

    We've got National Title Talent

    The problem will be yet again....... A lot of talent that is not coached. CHW and her staff, unless they make a complete 180 from what they have been, need to go. This program needed a Pat to replace Pat. Not the good cop to her bad cop. I don't know if Chris Dailey at UConn would be a...

    No Championship for UCONN

    Geno knew it was coming. He just didn't know when. His expression when that shot went in, he knew. I loved his response after the game. What they did is not normal and now these kids get to experience real life and what the other teams feel like when UConn beats them. He will have them...

    Finally...someone is publicly speaking out

    Let's not forget that HCs have egos just like players have them. There are probably a dozen quality coaches out there right now that if the money is right, will take on this endeavor because just like they believe they can coach their current teams, they can coach the Lady Vols too!!! Let's...

    Davis or Deshields

    Deshields all day.... Much more overall talent than Davis. But the problem for DD has been the lack of coaching since she's been in college. UNC - as a freshman, no Hatchell. Calder allowed that run-and-gun game because it matched the fantastic four freshmen's style. DD, Gray...

    Dawn Staley or Vic Schaeffer

    Not gonna happen with Staley.... Strong fan base..... Good recruits....... Oh......National Champion!!

    Who are Prime New Head Coach Candidates?

    Whoever the next candidate is, they have to be able to coach, teach, establish an identity for what the team does, set high standards, hold them accountable and most importantly, be consistent.

    LVs Lose to Louisville 5 Takeaways

    DD needs an "alpha" coach that demands her best while at the same time coaching her too. The one thing that you have to remember about uber talented kids is that: 1. You must always demand their best. 2. You must be consistent in your message, your philosophy, your end goals. 3. You...

    Fire Her!!!!!!!!

    Is that you Coach J.???? This Lady Vol program still has a little bit of luster to it so an "alpha" type coach can still come in and revive it, set the expectation and reset that culture of winning. Is that you Coach J.?? "wat say u! wat say u!" :salute::salute:

    Fire Her!!!!!!!!

    It's pretty obvious that there has been a lack of coaching here, especially with this current team. Someone on here mentioned the UConn/Cuse game and UConn's offense. It's nothing new really. Basketball 101. Stuff you learn on JV in HS. No player can move faster than the ball. If you...

    "Catch" per Geno

    Catch is basically the staple of what his teams are and what he has recruited and demanded for the past 7-8 years. It really got going when Bre Stewart and crew stepped on campus. They took it to another level. Catchings is a Lady Vols great and is that prototype that Geno wants and has in...

    Is Lady Vols Legacy Over?

    In the right offense with the right coaching, she would be dominate. Because of her mechanics and lumbering movements, the offense needs to be a half-court post oriented offense and zone heavy on defense to take advantage of her size.....

    Is Lady Vols Legacy Over?

    The only way this program turns it's self around is to make a change at HC and staff and bring in someone who knows x's and o's and is that alpha personality that will get these girls in shape, motivated and accountable to not just the HC and staff but to each other and to the Lady Vol tradition...
