Some HVL jealousy going on, who would have figured?


Like how do you know this?

This is the type of unfounded bullshite that people who don't know any better pick up on and start spreading.

Here is what we know:

-Reese was causing problems and needed time away to re-focus. She seems to be fine now.

-Poole apparently did something worse and has been let go.

This doesn't mean the progam is falling apart and it certainly doesn't point to a "bad culture". The coach wouldn't stand for that. It means a couple of individuals strayed a bit and were held accountable for it.

It would be a "bad culture" if Mulkey didn't address any of the issues and just let the players play on.

And maybe the Reese thing wasn't that deep to even begin with. The team seems fine. Let's be honest...Poole wasn't gonna see the floor much with how this team is constructed.

I think people are overly reading into things too much.



The team is fine, the transfers and freshmen have integrated well and are eager to win and excel. Reese had a come to Jesus moment with Mulkey who I believe had to set her straight and send a message after all the success that came in the last year. Not uncommon young people have issues learning how to handle dealing with the success/fame with the adversity that comes with it.

Poole was dealt with for internal issues.

The team literally just beat #9 VT by 20 a week ago. They will be fine. They are just trying to get kids healthy at this point and continue to build chemistry.

Completely agree. I don't see a "bad culture". Teams deal with internal issues all the time, and most times the public is not privy to it. What I DO know is the team is 9-1 and blowing everyone out. They have the best rebounding duo on all of college basketball and possibly the best freshman. I think we have nothing to worry about other than depth, as a result of Smith's injury and Poole's departure. But, even that can be managed because of the overwhelming talent.
