Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 3122100, member: 6620"] Another Positive Step Up for Former ND Point Guard since she started coaching: - St. John's (worked for Kim Barnes Arico) - George Washington (recruiting coordinator, guards coach for Jonathan Tsipis) - Michigan (guards coach for Arico) - HC at Miami University of Ohio (two consecutive 20-wins seasons in her first -- and only -- two years) It should be noted that Marquette athletic director Bill Scholl was an administrator at Notre Dame when Duffy was a player so Kelly might've had an easier trip to the front door. Interestingly, ND associate head coach Carol Owens was initially thought of as a prime candidate. Perhaps Scholl's connection to Duffy was key. Or the fact that Duffy is about the same age Kieger was when she took over. While Marquette is losing a starting lineup of five starters that all scored more than 1,000 points (man, that sounds familiar :eek:), former coach Carolyn Kieger was bringing in a class of 8 prospects, including highly rated guard Shemara Williams from Milwaukee. Williams was apparently upset that Kieger was leaving for Penn State, so Duffy might want to take an Uber over to her house after the press conference. In any case, great move for Duffy. If she continues to do well, it will give Notre Dame another quality choice for a MM successor (Ivey, Morgan-Cunnigham) when that time comes.
