Recruiting is everything. The star for ND (the French School of commenter fame) who won both games in the Final Four is from Nigeria. That is why UConn is always dominant and upset in a monstrous effort by ND. They stockpile great women athletes. The star of UConn is from St. Louis Incarnate Word (Collier). Basically, she received a number of "inducements" to attend and play for Incarnate Word who are into recruiting for state championships. Maybe, the FBI should look into UConn.----How much can an elite woman basketball star make? I would say not very much. Cheryl Miller (sister of Reggie) and Ann Meyer (sister of David) both of UCLA and Laker fame received 10 day contracts from the Lakers. They had no upper body strength and the image of Kareem turned their 6 foot 4 to mush. In comparison to male athletes of the background of a non college player in LBJ is beyond belief.---Coaches are using the equality issue just like in tennis to maximize their salaries. If you would use capitalist principles, there is no way that this woman would receive a lot more than her 225k previous salary.---I saw when Dr. Mark Emmert handed the champion trophy to Jalen Brunson and the Villanova Wildcats. Let's just say that he is a little guy with no physical experience with a fancy hair style with "duck wings". It is now easy to understand the way that he runs the NCAA as an avenue of political expediency. The university presidents should reassert control. There is no doubt that the NBA has been channeling money with the shoe companies into the NCAA for quite a while. Emmert has been looking the other way.---Now, you know why BC is such a gimmick. They try to do things the right way. BC is just the poster child trotted forth in order to hide all the warts of the rest of the NCAA and that includes the French School which has been bending the rules as well.---JBQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09344181644293746758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-79738887171546155852018-04-11T11:59:39.963-04:002018-04-11T11:59:39.963-04:00seems like another point you mention at the end pr...seems like another point you mention at the end probably should be on the list of learnings: proven success as a recruiter.Leather Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08655529957963233570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-43410829481762005652018-04-11T11:38:00.922-04:002018-04-11T11:38:00.922-04:00He likes last names that rhyme.

Their womens basketball team has been very good for a number of years. Their administration chose coach Mac carefully after the prior coach left the program. The conference is not a strong one but the players appear to be well coached and she has done a very good job recruiting. The entrance requirements at Albany are no where near thosse at BC, but I have always contended that the academic offerings for women at BC should be a magnet for high quality players in all womens sports. Our Soccer, Field Hockey, and Lacrosse programs are extremely competitive every year and this year softball is also doing well I hope this is a good hire, only time will tell. Cathy Iglese got a raw deal and we have not as yet recovered, karma is a bitch.OB68https://www.blogger.com/profile/08698878630429723574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-86087146777074427362018-04-11T10:51:31.349-04:002018-04-11T10:51:31.349-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.mod34bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129365485893573618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-48590850850612143182018-04-11T10:46:44.229-04:002018-04-11T10:46:44.229-04:00"Word is" from "Unknown" has a..."Word is" from "Unknown" has a lot of credibility.

This appears to be a high energy and enthusiastic choice with tons of upside. Worth the risk on women's basketball. I doubt he will ultimately do that on the money sports, but interesting to see the key attributes he values -- I like it.bceagle93https://www.blogger.com/profile/12409788303341640915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-29982821518783294102018-04-11T09:10:00.283-04:002018-04-11T09:10:00.283-04:00Same area same success story as the Great Cathy In...Same area same success story as the Great Cathy Inglese who came from U.Vermont.<br /> Similar success would totally resurrect the dormant women's bb program.<br /> GO BCEdward Griffithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043204998995014338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-16815110745511743172018-04-11T08:21:16.469-04:002018-04-11T08:21:16.469-04:00Reasonable hire all things considered.
