Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 3635662, member: 7492"] To echo what our fine colleague here has posted, yes, many other sources have picked up on this and I have attached an article from the Dallas Morning News where at the end of the article, the AD Kirby Hocutt states he met with players yesterday and will meet with them today. The disconcerting aspect is only meeting with the players for an hour while then having the players meet with the coaching staff and himself for 2 hours. That makes no sense in any realistic assessment of issues as you should meet the alleged victims, assess and document, then meet with the coaches, go back and propose meeting with the players and if they want to meet with the staff. I fear a CYA situation and not any meaningful results. To me, the schools always look at the financial obligation first (Stollings contract is through March 2024 with $2.9 million left) then secondarily look to see if there is any abuse that would allow them out of the contract. I beg TT to do more than a cursory review and actually mean it when Hocutt says he cares about the students. Sadly, I don't see the school doing that. See SMU, see Duke see Northern Kentucky all of which backed their coaches due to contracts despite noting issues with promises of improvement. :oops: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.dallasnews.com/sports/texas-tech-red-raiders/2020/08/05/usa-today-report-alleges-toxic-culture-within-texas-tech-womens-basketball-program/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
