If the roster was pretty similar, I'd say I agreed with this statement. However, because Kara mostly cleaned house and worked the transfer portal in her extended off-season, I'd say that taking off last season has very little to do with their ups and downs this year.
I would add Kellie Jolly Harper to that list.
The team voted to forego the season. I also have no idea what her manner of dealing with a pandemic has to do with her coaching ability
Semeka Randall, too. Svet sat with her and Catch while on a plane to some awards ceremony and afterwards talked about how nice they were and how complimentary they were about Svet and UConn
In Randall‘s case would that be Husky “Boo”?Semeka Randall, too. Svet sat with her and Catch while on a plane to some awards ceremony and talked about how nice they were and how complimentary they were about Svet and UConn
Both “Meeks” would have looked great in Husky blue
What exactly did Geno do for her?
She was with him one a couple of Olympic teams , she came away with glowing reports of his coaching her, by her. I'm sure there is more but with a skipping mind , well you know.
Geno as an olympic coach had a soft place in his heart for Catching. Boo, I'm not so sure.Semeka Randall, too. Svet sat with her and Catch while on a plane to some awards ceremony and talked about how nice they were and how complimentary they were about Svet and UConn

I think, at this point, we should move virtually all of the former and current Tennessee players and Pat closer to the “very class act” category. I came on board the Boneyard during and because of the Maya incident. It was logical to be infuriated by it; and I certainly was, along with all of you.
I remember reading that article in the Courant. When visiting Knoxville a while later I purchased an orange “Tennessee” T-shirt and walked around the corner to Thompson-Bolling arena to the Womens Basketball Office to see if Pat would sign it. Unfortunately the team was in Europe at the time (it was July/Aug.) but I was told Pat would be more than happy to do it when they returned. When asked for my address to be sent to me, I quickly told that story about how great the Lady Vol players were to Svet, for fear they would throw me out of the office, being from Connecticut and all. Well they were gratified to hear it and refused to let me pay for the shipping on top of all that. A few weeks later the shirt arrived, signed by Pat with a shout out to my wife, as I requested. Until she went downhill due to the progression of her disease, Pat belonged at the top of the aforementioned “classy” list.Semeka Randall, too.

As long as you are throwing cold water maybe you should check with the Duke fans and players if they'd like you to inquire about the return of coach Joanne P. McCallie. Kara is doing fine, give her some time.
Wait, what? She’s the Captain of the ship, leader and face of the program. The Duke Men’s team played the full season and so did countless other programs in all other sports. That absolutely has everything to do with her leadership. Sports programs are not a democracy.
Isn't Semeka the one who bounced Svetas head off of the floor?Semeka Randall, too. Svet sat with her and Catch while on a plane to some awards ceremony and afterwards talked about how nice they were and how complimentary they were about Svet and UConn

Not on purpose. She was saving a ball and threw it back onto the court, where Svet had fallen. Randall wasn’t aiming for her, though
