Remember Jackson State Head Coach Tomekia Reed?

Awesome news! I joined BY to follow this story. After Geno spoke out for her, I read her contract was days from expiration-she was making $135K. I bet she's getting a little more now! -)
Geno did her a solid. Good on him, good on Coach Reed.

And there's still time left for any of her JSU players to follow her.

She has more than paid her dues. I hope JSU can find a worthy successor.

Most likely Coach Reed will earn more than 250k. That’s the annual salary Jackson State offered her to stay

Yeah, but, I don't think he should hold his breath waiting for an invite to any future Jackson State function, eh? -)

I'm not a UNCC alum, just I like to see the 49ers do well. They have always been a solid to above average program. As I noted on the other board, their last 4 coaches all left for bigger programs. They are two seasons removed from going to the NCAA tourney when they played in the CUSA. Its an attractive campus, in a growing area, so you should be able to recruit well enough.

Why? The school let her contract expire. Don't know if they even tried to re-hire her

Good for her and good for Geno for speaking out on behalf of a great coach at one of the HBC programs that go unnoticed because they have difficulty scheduling Top 25 games to bump their NET and other metrics. I hope UConn schedules Charlotte before Geno retires.
You'd think they could have found a picture of Geno from this century though. LOL
