Is something going on with our Women's basketball team

[CaptainObvious]

Coach misses another game. Barnum and Carter out. And they lose to Chattanooga!

Oof

[Tough Dawg]

Wondered the same. Coach being out again. Not being able to travel.

[MabenMaroon]

Haven't won a basketball game men's or women's since Coach Lebby was hired, hmmm***

[preachermatt83]

We have 2 players injured and a coach sick

[RockyDog]

Purcell is overrated.

[EdwardDrayton]

Think someone said we're giving the devil his due for the 2021 deal we made at the crossroads.

[CaptainObvious]

My understanding is neither injury or illness is severe and both girls could play, but neither traveled so that is why I asked if something is going on. Jessica has had her share of off the court issues in the past. I hope it is just pre-cautionary toward injury and illness recovery, but quad 3 losses are painful.

Purcell is overrated.

Lol. No

What's the illness? Coach missing a game isn't very common

Think HIPAA prevents disclosure.

Think HIPAA prevents disclosure.

I would think any illness that prevents coaching a game is pretty damn serious. We talking about WBK though, so maybe not

you are a significant dumb a s s!

I was at the game. 4 points:

1) UTC is better than you'd think, they're 8-0.

2) UTC had a girl off the bench who couldn't miss from 3

3) our coach SUCKED! We shot the 3 ball well but the 2nd half she wouldn't let them shoot. We ran the exact same "drive to the basket" play, but UTC would crash with 4 defenders and we NEVER kicked it out. We'd just have the shorter player on the court shoot and get it blocked. UTC was begging us to shoot the 3 and our coach refused.

4) our team was dead, UTC had a ton of energy. I don't know if it's a culture problem or just a fluke of being on the road with your coach out, but we did not win any hustle plays.

Is he sick?

[Charlie_Sheen420]

Obviously there’s something contagious in the Hump that has spread to both the men’s and women’s teams and the biggest symptom is sucking

It is a head scratcher.

Jessica was there, in sweats and a knee brace

That's a bummer. So Purcell was out sick?

[maroonmania]

I think both the men and women's teams mistakenly thought that once they got ranked the season was over. Neither team has shown up since being ranked.

That's the 2nd game Coach Purcell has missed due to illness. He also missed the Tulsa game after coaching earlier in the tournament.

He missed the Tulsa game because of an illness, then coached the Miami game, but missed yesterday's game. Not sure what's going on but I hope all is well. We need Jessika Carter and Erynn Barnum back too, I'm not sure what's going on with them either... its been an odd season here lately.
