To my concerned twitter family. I am doing well. I have made the decision to move on and will no longer be at Mason. I am thankful for my 8 years there but it’s time for a new adventure.
Congratulations to my girl @CoachBlair24 on her appointment! She will do a great job!
Yeah I mean best of luck to her, but if she was part of the women’s program for 8 years she definitely didn’t coach a whole lot of winning.
There’s just nothing like someone getting fired for sucking a** at their job talking about resigning. “I made the decision” good go coach the Virgin Islands national team for $3 an hour and good luck with life
I felt she was the only assistant coach that visibly did a good job (from what I could see). She worked with the post players and they always got better over time. We always had some talented 4s and 5s, and even the less talented ones developed good fundamentals. The problem this past season was the guard play - they couldn't get the ball to their bigs. Personally, I'm sorry to see Coach T go.

I think about this with the men's team too - - when you are a good program, being in a recruiting hotbed is an advantage. When you're a bad program, it is not so much - - because your area is so heavily recruited that better schools are going to pick it over. We get left with the scraps. A look at the women's roster shows that we do not recruit locally.
Probably true. But if the talent pool for women basketball players just isn't comparable to the men's (esp here in the area), and the big schools poach all that talent, then many of the middle-tier schools in the mid-major conferences are all competing for what's left over, right? So if we can just win a couple of those recruiting battles for "better than average" players, and combine that with better coaching, then we should be competitive in the A-10 right? I don't expect to be competing at the same level of the UConns, Tennesseees, Baylors, etc. Just enough to be competitive in our own conference and MAYBE make it to the NCAA tournament one day.
and arguably one of the best women's bball high school in the country is/was down the street at Paul VI
What I'm trying to say is that we don't appear to recruit our area very well AND there is no hiding talent in the DMV AND we have no history of success to help us win recruiting battles. The talent is here but this area is poached by every program worth their salt. My theory is that our area is more picked over than some other places. GW is also much better in Women's basketball, so there is more local A-10 competition there.
