Joy Cheek Leaving OSU for Vandy

[Wbbfan1]

Don't know what to think about this move. OSU an elite team capable of winning a National Championship next year. Vandy is maybe a Sweet 16 team at best.

Suggestion: Some of us don't know who Joy Cheek is, or her affiliation with OSU. Also, because there are two "OSU's" (Oregon State University & Ohio State University), Spelling out the institution's name would help to clarify which OSU you're referring to. Thanks.

I think Joy Cheek was at Duke, she now moves again which appears to be a lateral move.

Actually Cheek is leaving Oklahoma State, though I could be wrong

Thanks. Make that 3 "OSU's". I forgot about Oklahoma State University.

Vanderbilt hires Ohio State's Joy Cheek as assistant

Joy was on McGuff's staff at Ohio State. She was an assistant at Duke before that. She played 4 years at Duke (2007-10) and had a brief pro career. I guess she's impressed (understandably) by Stephanie White.

Suggestion: Google Joy Cheek.

Ohio State is often tOSU for the Ohio State University.

My husband is an OSU grad. 69BA/72MFA. Platform diver for hall of fame coach Ron O'Brien. There is only 1 OSU in our home. Go Buckeyes!

Vanderbilt is building one heck of a staff. UT fans should be watching very closely, there's a new power in state.

or tired of the playground basketball at The Ohio State. OSU will be very talented in 2016-17. However, without good defense and rebounding they are not going very far in the NCAA tournament.

Vandy's not in Texas!

Lol. Got me. Neither is UM. TSU is though.

With all this coaching talent pouring into Nashville, maybe a team from Tennessee will finally be able to give Dawn's Gamecocks a little challenge!

Maybe and hopefully. Objectively speaking however, I wouldn't quite count Pat and her motley crew out just yet.

Sigh. Holly, not Pat.

Interesting that OSU is indeed used for both Ohio State and Oklahoma State, but I don't generally think of it referring to Oregon State. I have (of course) heard it used but it doesn't leap to mind, even though we are in PAC12 territory. OTH, my wife thinks tOSU first, Oregon 2nd and Oklahoma a distant 3rd.

For me, USC is Southern Cal and USF is South Florida - and RU is Rutgers, not Radford! UT is in Texas and IUPUI is exactly where it says it is!

There is only one OSU, Oregon State is Oregon State, it's actually tOSU; The Ohio State University. Joy Cheek was an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator for Kevin McGuff in her 3rd season, she's a Duke grad who came to tOSU after working in the same capacity at her alma mater, she also works with the posts and is credited with the development of Alexa Hart. tOSU had a consensus top five recruiting class her first year, which included Kelsey Mitchell and four other ESPiN top 100 signees, although most of us believe the hiring of Mitchell's father had more to do with her recruitment than Cheek. tOSU has also gotten 3 transfers from Duke, during Cheek's tenure.
