I agree, but feel bad for her. She clearly isn't competent but she's also had a lot of unbelievably bad luck. The pressure and disappointment she must be experiencing right now makes me cringe at the thought.

That said, she 100% has got to go, ASAP.

Its nothing personal. It sucks, i dont like seeing people fail and lose their jobs. However she is obviously incapable. The longer shes at the helm the more shes going to run us into the ground. She needs to accept that shes in over her head and hand the keys over.
 
I don't disagree, but this particular f***-up is not on her. And neither was the total embarassment known as the BOR.

Not on her? She fired Rice January 10. One would think she could get a jump on the avaiable and even emerging pool of coaching talent. Nope. We were one of the last programs to hire a coach.

And don't give me the Cronin delay. My guess is that he was turned off by the amateurism of the UNLV administration. Watch how a serious program courts a coach, and how we do it. She had no strategic vision. She didn't know who she wanted or how much she wanted to pay.

I never thought I'd say this, but she makes me miss Hamdick.

totally. texas tech could have written up a contract that paid beard 3 tacos before every home game, cab fare from the bus station to the arena for road games and a bonus cab fare from the arena back to the bus station after winning road games and beard would have taken it. this is not a guy you hire to rebuild a program. they are completely lost. i only expect it to get worse from here.
 
Obviously this situation turned out to be a mess but she wasn't all to blame.

From what I can tell she went down the list of coaches from this site. She tried Pitino, nope. Underworld... Thanks but no thanks.

Dixon fell through because a Power 5 came calling. The Cronin thing was a disaster. Then she pivoted to Beard, who most here were happy with, then another Power 5 came calling.

Now it sounds like she moved to Karl last night. It seems to me she has been on top of a lot of the moves and a lot of the problem is over estimating our appeal to coaches.

From what I heard she had an offer ready to all those guys, or most, and they all said no.

I am not going to say she is blameless because the firing Rice situation, not hiring Stacey for interim, and the longest courting process was for Cronin. There was nobody on here except for maybe one or two people that spoke up about Rice so calling her out for that on here is kind of weak. She screwed up some and was also hit with tons of bad luck.

In the end it was perceived as a shit show so therefore it is. Still, I say a lot on here would have made the same mistakes at the same turns in the road.
