You guys who want her fired are wasting your time.
I do agree with this. I think a reasonable argument can be made for it because of the salary she is being paid, but unlike on the men's side you can sell hope with improved recruiting and improved product on the floor this year.
I will say, 19th isn't what we are paying for. As recently as 2015 she was the 5th highest paid coach in women's college hoops. I'd have to assume she is still among the top 10.
IMHO she can coach and I like that she disciplines her girls, but at some point soon the product on the court needs to start being in line with what we are paying for. That's the bottom line. And I think that's fair.
She's going to get next year. We'll see after that.

My big problem w her is her salary. To pay that much to maybe make the tourney in WBB is crazy.
We could have kept pat Henry and given DD Breaux a raise and get the same results w a diff woman's coach
Crazy money for an average coach in a money losing program

The future is bright.
Players who will return next year:
Raigyne Moncrief (junior). 15.3 points per game, 5.8 rebounds per game. 84 steals, which is top 5 in the nation. She will likely be 1st team all-SEC this year.
Chloe Jackson (technically a sophomore, but they can petition to get her year back later because she was injured at NC State before she transferred). 13.3 points per game, 4.8 rebounds per game, 48 steals.
Ayana Mitchell (redshirt freshman) 7.5 points per game, 5.2 rebounds per game, 59% FG shooter...and only plays about 19 minutes per game. If she can learn to stay out of foul trouble, she will be a beast.
That is a solid core of 3 players. Faustine Aifuwa, who is the 6'5 kid who tore her knee up before the season is supposed to be decent, and among the recruits coming in, the best is a 5-star 6'4 kid from New Jersey. If they can get a couple of good post players together, they will be very good.
