URI still no coach. *Shocking* that folks are just not flocking to that job.

She resigned after an internal review into her program. I would be surprised if she could get another D1 job this fast. She'll probably have to take some time off, maybe latch on as an assistant somewhere, go the D2 route and work her way back up. Remember Connie Yori? She was successful at Nebraska and still hasn't returned to coaching. Not easy when these off the court issues spring up.

Assistant/associate head coach to Suzy Merchant at Michigan State for the past 6 years. She's well regarded.

AAH is walking into some high expectations. Only one player graduates from the Sweet 16 team.

My sample size is the one game I watched live, but it seemed to me that Danielle Gitzen was far and away their best player. While only one player, that seems like a big loss for them.

But perhaps it can be offset with some offseason improvement from the others.

Gitzen was their best player, but I wouldn't say overwhelmingly so. She averaged 13 ppg (18% of the team's total), and 3 other players averaged 9+ ppg.

True, but she also led them in assists and steals and was 2nd in rebounds.

They'll do really well in the MVC but I don't think anyone should expect a repeat S16 appearance or anything like that.

Yes, but after starting the season 1-7 they went 24-3 the rest of the way, including 2 wins over Drake and wins over DePaul and Iowa State in the tournament. When you finish that strong and you only lose 1 player to graduation, there will be a certain level of expectations. Whether those expectations are reasonable is perhaps open to debate, but they will be there.

Cal hires April Phillips away from Arizona in a lateral move. Long time assistant coach Charmin Smith left for the NY Liberty.

This is an outstanding hire. Phillips is considered one of the top recruiters on the West Coast and did great at LMU and Arizona. Her great strength so far has been as a recruiter and Gottlieb needs more help on Xs and Os. With Morgan Valley also leaving, Arizona has lost two assistant coaches in two days.

Interesting move for Phillips. Arizona is moving up and Cal seems poised to take a big tumble next season. Also I keep hearing about what a mess Cal's Athletic Department is. Bit of a tough blow to UA having to replace two assistant coaches now. At least Coppa probably won't be going anywhere else as long as Barnes is the HC. :) (they are married if anyone doesn't get the joke)

Charleston is surely a nicer city than Beaumont, but is the move from the Southland to the Colonial really an upgrade?

I definitely would say so. Colonial gets 2 teams in every once in a while.

Massey: Colonial 17, Southland 32
RPI: Colonial 10, Southland 25
