That's too bad.

 

[bluedevil]

Sad but life goes on..need to find a good recruiter to take her place...wish her well..

 

[RockyMTblue2]

I hope what took her away resolves well for her and she thrives in her next endeavor.

 

[EricLA]

Loved her while she was here. Glad it's official. Now the staff can either officially name Jamelle as the new assistant, or search in earnest and hire Jaz's replacement...

Glad she went out with class. Nice tweet by her.

Hate to see her go but at least this ordeal is over, even if the specific reason(s) is never publicly acknowledged. Now UConn can move on and find her replacement. Best of luck and success to her in the future.

Bizarre situation. I wish her the best and hope everything is alright with her.

Will be interesting to see where they turn to if Jamelle opts not to continue.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Best wishes to Jas! We enjoyed having you as a Grad Assistant and Assistant Coach!

 

[connboy77]

Does anybody have any ideas on who should replace Jasmine?

Does anybody have any ideas on who should replace Jasmine?

Give it an hour, and we'll see at least 10 candidates listed by Boneyarders.

Some thoughts:

Will Crockett

Morgan Tuck

Karlie Samuelson

Tim Fudd

If Jamelle goes back to her prior role I would really really really like to see a great situational X's and O's type coach brought in to fill the spot. I'd even prioritize that over a strong recruiter. To me UConn's recruiting is always going to be great because of Geno's personality not to mention CD. But in some of those Final 4 losses in 2017-2019 I feel there were some big errors in strategy late that led to the result not going in our favor. I feel we can improve there.

I'm ok with Jamelle staying as long as she wants.

I can be there tomorrow

 

[oldude]

Geno is very loyal, so Jamelle will likely be the first person offered. If Jamelle does not want to extend her tour of duty as an Ast Coach, then I would expect Geno to try to hire a younger coach who is a strong recruiter.

Conspiracy Kitty says:
Hmmmm, Muffet resigns suddenly just before a spot opens on the UConn staff?

Lots of really experienced coaches out there looking for work: MM, HW, Karen Aston....

 

[victor64]

What about Nykesha Sales or Kelly Faris? I now Sales is at Central Florida and Faris is still playing but I think if Elliott doesn't want it, the replacement should should be a former Husky.

and they are all strong recruiters, although not young

I'm thrilled with Jamelle if she wants it.

 

[01Neaggrad02]

Diana.... Hint hint.... Or Sue....

 

[MilfordHusky]

Geno could rescue Nykesha from Coach Abe!

 

[pvdoggy]

Now if Lister shows up as an assistant coach for some other team next season, that may make you go hmm....

 

[stamfordhusky]

I think it's extremely likely it will be an African-American.

 

[UConnCat]

There may be a hiring freeze.
