Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 2280671, member: 5798"] The JPM dog and pony show has just about run it's course in Durham. It's time for her to move on to the next stop. I'm sure the next coach the University hires will be an up and coming coach with fresh ideas, and a different approach to building a winning program. Your program's break through is on the way. How much support is JPM getting from the Duke fan base? Are they behind her 100% like we are with Auriemma, or do they want her head on a plate like they do in Knoxville? From the outside looking in, I'm wondering if something is amiss at Duke. You lost two prominent players that JPM was counting heavily on this past season in Salvadores and Stevens. Even though your program's recruiting classes have been ranked among the best in the country the past few years, for some reason, the program has been unable to reach the Final Four under McCallie. Players don't just leave for no reason. Duke has had more than their share of transfers lately. What's the "skinny" as you understand it as to why they left? Stevens does not come off as having the type of personality/ego that demands or courts attention. She appears to be just the opposite. Care to fill in the blanks? [/QUOTE]
