DD has been coaching for 40 years and lacks a SEC title and National Championship. Has done an amazing job with the growth and recent development of the program.
After watching this team night in and night out, I respect the job Fargas has done. She got rid of Ballard, Baker, and Youngblood, who were all top recruits, but just refused to adhere to the expectations. She coached a D1 program with only active 6 players. Had a huge turnaround this season with very winnable games to close out.
Fargas in five previous seasons has 4 tournament appearances and 2 Sweet Sixteens. The current landscape of Women's College Basketball is UCONN, Baylor, Notre Dame, South Carolina, Miss St., Tennessee (when they decide to play), and Florida St, then everybody else. They are not on that top level yet, but the growth from last season is evident.
I just think it is ridiculous when you want to fire a coach in regards to her salary, but pay no attention at all to the current happenings of the team or women's college basketball.

Couldn't have said it better.
