I had to authenticate the tweet, consider just how to word the thread title, whether to put it on the main forum or subforum, etc. etc. etc. It's a long flowchart of decision-making@Plebe. 8 minute delay before reporting this to us?
Well that part of the lady vol saga seems to be over, but now to the coaching search and possible transfers
That was just a rumor. I think she’ll probably wait until who the new coach and staff will be before making that decisionAnd transfers. Somewhere on this board, Westbrook has already requested a transfer.
Tiny wrinkle to the portal process. Players cannot put themselves in the portal. Players notify their institution and the institution has 48 hours to put the players name in the portal. Portal leaked info can come from the school, players, family, or AAU coaches.With the “Transfer Portal” that exists now, it is clear who is actually transferring. I don’t know I f the portal is public but reporters seem to have sources telling them who is/isn’t there. If Westbrook were there, it would be known.
I imagine Tenn will hold off on granting releases until the new coach has a had a chance to talk to all the players.
Someone willing to bite the Dawn bullet and institute a modern option offense which includes the 3 pt shot, use a tough M2M defense with the press and zones mixed in, not the press as your first option, judicious use of TO's, the ability to formulate understandable and effective plays during those TO's, the ability to coach up players to reach their potential, and of course the ability to lead young women on and off the court.Now we wait and see if they can hire a competent replacement. Please, NO KAREN ASTON or Nicki Caldwell. Preferably someone young with fresh ideas, new spirit, and maybe outside the Vol family. We don't need a former LV.
As I predicted Holly would be fired the Wednesday after the team is eliminated. I said a 2nd round elimination, but the effect is the same. So, here is my self pat on the back for those who questioned "Who are your sources", "An announcement must mean they're going tor retain her", or "How could the Vols possibly swallow that contract". I predict also that Holly, who is a Lady Vol for life will be kicked upstairs and will be retained by the administration in some capacity. I also predict those who signed LOI's, and some of the freshmen and sophomores will flee this prison. Horston sandwich anyone? Not very tough predictions here though.
Nowhere does it say she was fired. The idea of being "relived"of your post is open to interpretation. I still believe she resigned her post and will be kicked upstairs. And weren't you one of those that questioned my prediction and the probability of this happening at all? You questioning any part of this is like an elephant standing on quicksand.Didn’t you say Holly had submitted a resignation letter? She didn’t. She was fired.
Holly is a lifer. Look for her to pop up in the UT admin somewhere.I like Holly as a person. You could tell she means well but was clearly in over her head at a program of that magnitude.
Gonna be weird to not see Holly on the sidelines anymore. Hope she enjoys some time off, she has been at this for a long time.
