No surprise: Providence looking for a new coach

[RockyMTblue2]

I would go after the guy at Amherst....

"G.P. Gromacki, his overall coaching record now 314-47 (a tops-in-college-basketball percentage of .870 -- better than Coach K, better than Geno Auriemma)...."

FWIW, Amherst goes after a second consecutive DIII Nat'l Championship this weekend.

You would think he would relish the opportunity to escape the Amherst Mascot : " “The Singing College” is represented by one Lord Jeff; a poncy, powdered wig wearing British general and politician who somehow manages to be even less intimidating on the field than Evergreen’s Geoduck. In fact, it’s because of Lord Jeff that Amherst earned its unofficial nickname, “Little Lord Fauntleroy’s School For Albino Hemophiliacs.” Man, at least give the guy a musket or something."

Sounds like it was written by someone who had the misfortune to attend Wesleyan.

. even in the lower divisions there are coaches like G.P. Gromacki at Amherst( already mentioned), who combines great coaching ability with great passion. he's the kind of person that a school like Providence needs. someone that they could really get excited about.

I wouldn't be surprised if Amherst pays better than Providence. And less work.

Unfortunately they ran into a George Fox (Oregon) team with a 6'5" center. In D3, the centers are usually 6'0", and they couldnt stop her - she scored 30+. Still it was tied with 3 min to go.
