Kristy Curry Interviews for Alabama Job

[UConnCat]

Curry's contract at Texas Tech expires after the 2015-2016 season. Curry may be on the hot seat at Tech but Alabama? What's this about?

An attempt to get a raise? Dissatisfaction with Lubbock? (school or city)

Although she has been there a while, she did follow a legend, which is always tough. And a legend that is still around the school, if not directly the program.

She just doesn't seem like she made any inroads at TTU. Has she managed to land any recruits on their current roster who were AA's, or in the top 30 or so? If not, I can see why she'd want to try her luck elsewhere.

Curry signed a 5-year extension in 2011 which I think came after she interviewed for the then-vacant LSU job.

Lots of places to try, the attraction of Alabama is a mystery, at least to me.

Sharp should return to coaching. She may be the only one who can recruit well in Lubbock.

But seriously, have you seen Lubbock? No offense to HelloKitty, but that is the armpit of Texas, right along with El Paso. It's probably Lu hard to get anyone of stature to play there.

I'll take your word for it. Have seen plenty of west Texas and El Paso going back and forth from AZ to Austin (relatives) and (separately) to points further east; both the "southern" route through Balmorhea, Fort Stockton, etc., and the more northern trek (Pecos, Odessa, etc) and even the far northern short trip through Amarillo. Ozona is my favorite city name, smells just like its name.

Funny that you mention Ozona. TTU had a really good player, Amber Tarr, about 10 to 15 years back who hailed from Ozona, TX. She and a little 5-0 firecracker PG named Bobbi Bryson, won state their freshman year. Bryon was soon diagnosed with cancer that derailed her playing career. Otherwise they would have had a great chance at 4 straight titles.
