[/LIST] [LIST] [*]Two assistant coaches bring WNBA/professional experience - Beth Cunningham (ABL/Washington Mystics) and Tia Jackson (Phoenix Mercury). [/LIST] [LIST] [*]Two assistant coaches landed huge, high profile transfers that were instrumental in their former institutions’ successful seasons - Tia Jackson (Beatrice Mompremier, from Baylor to Miami) and Winston Gandy (Erica Ogwumike, from Pepperdine to Rice; Nancy Mulkey, from Oklahoma to Rice; Nicole Iademarco, from Arizona State to Rice). [/LIST] [LIST] [*]There will not be an associate head coach; all three will be assistant coaches. This will eliminate the “pecking order” (if you will) and allow all three to be equal contributors (which is a good thing, given that both Tia Jackson and Beth Cunningham are former head coaches while Winston Gandy was most recently an associate head coach).
