Probably because she is a new player that hasn’t enrolled yet. I wouldn’t read too much into it.2025-26 Women's Basketball Roster - Mississippi State

Glad to hear they're cleaning up well. Harris is making more than she would as a head coach at a lot of mid majors.

Stanford had their banquet tonight, rumblings that next season will include games against South Carolina, Gonzaga (Tournament), Texas, and Tennessee. Seems to be a solid schedule, if it happens. Might not be able to schedule anything against California State Universities as they are not on campus this fall. It’s going to be an interesting ride.

Per Raoul, ND just posted this job description for Associate Head Coach. Those familiar with the corporate dance might point out that this means there is probably someone (already) in line for the post.
www.indeed.com
When Niele left for the Memphis Grizzlies, all three of Muffet's assistants were "Associate Head Coaches": Niele, Beth Morgan Cunningham and Carol Owens. When Niele left, Michaela Mabrey was hired (but as an assistant coach) an Cunningham was assigned to coordinate recruiting.
The posting is for one position (only). So the questions:
- Will Niele go back to the prior model and have three associate head coaches or (more likely, IMO)
- Bring in a new associate head coach?
While recruiting is mentioned twice, I'm guessing this person will just be part of an overall approach which will rely heavily on Ivey herself. Afer all, she's the new face of the ND basketball program and it's imperative for her to be the key component as she is now in the top spot. (Plus, she started the recruiting of most of the 2020, 2021 and, probably, 2022 prospects anyways.)
ND has had remarkable stability at the assistant positions the last decade so this is of big interest to those on The Bench. Stay tuned.

So what am I missing here? Isn't the first question: IS anyone leaving or being replaced? Or is Mabry getting a bump up in title? Usually when a person is being promoted within, there is no "job opening". To me, one of Cunningham, Owens or Mabry is leaving. Any thoughts on clarity from our ND faithful- @Dillon77 or @Orangutan ?

Most likely Cunningham or Owens is leaving. Educated guess via the Bench is Cunningham.
Not impossible that Mabrey is leaving to make way for a more senior assistant but lateral move seems more likely. Especially during a pandemic when many programs are cost-cutting. Getting rid of Mabrey to hire someone more expensive doesn't make sense.

Agreed on all counts. Assignments could be:
- Posts/Big Forwards: Carol Owens
- Point Guards: Coquese Washington (a former PG herself, who also coached - voila -- Niele Ivey)
- Wings/Shooting Guards: Michaela Mabrey
- Recruiting: Ivey very involved initially, with Mabrey and Washington.

I haven't bothered checking what's on Pac 12 Network much the last several months. They are replaying some milestone games this week. Right now Tara is going for coaching win 1000 during the 2017 season.
On Saturday at 5 pm PST they are showing the 2017 regular season finale, Washington hosting Utah. That's the game Plum dropped 57 pts and broke the NCAA career scoring record.

Pac 12 Network can be pretty stupid at times, but they have outdone themselves. So with Kelsey's record breaking performance, they literally skipped half of the game. It jumped from about 5 minutes into Q1 to midway thru Q3. So stinking stupid, I'm not even sure why they bothered. It's not like there's ANYTHING actually happening in sports right now, why not show the game in it's entirety? You're dead to me Pac 12.- Joined

2021 recruiting class ranking...obviously in flux. Oregon State still above South Carolina is surprising.
2021 player ranking (only top 5 shown for free). Oregon State commit Talia von Oelhoffen at number 4 is a little surprising...maybe.

Looks like these rankings have yet to figure in Sania Feagin's commitment.

It mentions getting 2 five-stars. That's Feagin & Rivers. Bree (1st of three commits) is "only" a 4 star (I think)

We’ll have a better idea next week as we don’t know how they rank Hall, plus what day does that site consider the end of a week since Sania committed on Sunday.

Why does ESPN have like 50+ 5 star players? Personally I would love to see reduced number of those and discrepancies from the great and good players.

If you look back and compare today's ratings to the early 2010s, the grade inflation for players is pretty stark; maybe ESPN has been trying to keep up with the grade inflation those recruits are likely to experience in the classroom!

More kids with high rankings the more clicks they get. Not about rankings, it's about making money. Same reason their are tons of mock drafts. Agendas to get clicks.

Gotta say, Prince has not left a very favorable impression thus far.
The lawsuit alleges that, among other things, the regulation of college athletes makes training for the Olympics -- and the endorsements that can entail -- more difficult. I can see that argument if you're a swimmer, but basketball? Puhlease. Nothing better prepared Stewwie to be the new face of Team USA than training under Geno. I imagine the flock of young women heading to South Carolina feel similarly about Dawn. I understand why lawyers need to reach for every available argument in court filings, but in the court of public opinion I think Prince will not come off very favorably.

This is a very tricky subject and I don't see it changing.
The frustration athletes feel and experience is very understandable. The NCAA "not for profit" is a joke and everyone knows it. Colleges make $$ money off the performance and recognition of their athletes.
I'm not 100% sold on the idea the athletes should be paid but rather allow for some flexibility in how money could be given to students with extenuating circumstances like major injury, family traged or possible food insecurity.
Prince has chosen an odd time to fight this battle given how she has yet to play a minute of college basketball and I have no idea where the endorsements she speaks of would come from outside of the fact she could have made some pocket money off those shirts.
More of these are likely to arise in the future.
