    Transfer Portal (Women's Basketball)

    2 of the transfer related post players that Miss. State has appeared interested in are now showing as being followed on Twitter by former Miss. State Women's Basketball assistant coach Wesley Brooks (hired a few weeks ago) among others..who was today reported as Ohio State Women's Basketball new assistant coach Wesley Brooks. One of them followed by Wesley Brooks and another Ohio State assistant coach. Was reported earlier today that Brooks, hired a few weeks ago, was leaving Miss. State for Ohio State. Brooks leaving appears to have already been in the works before being reported today. At least one of these players started following him before today.

    Besides this..been fairly quiet lately regarding the Miss. State women's basketball program and transfers.

    Best of luck to him. However we have connections to that area with our other assistants. Now that the dead period is over I think things will pick back up.

    Best to Coach Brooks as he moves forward.
    Also, both Coach Keith Freeman and Coach Tamisha Augustin specialize in post players, and Coach Augustin is the recruiting coordinator on top of that. Wouldn't be surprised to hear some good news fairly soon.

    It's not going to matter. I mean, hell, we had talented players this year that NMP couldn't coach. What makes us think she will be able to coach anyone else with talent? It's not going to matter who we bring in. The fact that NMP is our coach right now dooms the program.

    I disagree. Also, most of these are different players...her players. Come back again during and after next season and discus this.

    We lost a coach who had been in the job for less than one month for quote family reasons If you can't see that's troubling I don't know what to tell you.

    Sadly, nothing is going to change as long as she is head coach. 12 all-Americans wouldn’t make a difference with her as coach. She has completely destroyed a top 5 program in less than a year and if you can’t see that then you must be sitting by her on the bench.

    Not so fast...
    Coach McCray-Penson was the 2019-2020 Conference USA Coach Of The Year. at Old Dominion. Also, was a key piece to South Carolina's 2015 Final 4 run, and their 2017 national championship while an assistant there. Getting more of her own players in place, adjustments, and players getting more familiar/experience with her system were big keys to her success at Old Dominion. Coach Schaefer's recruits were brought in for his system. These are mostly different talented players, being brought in specifically with her system in.mind....her players.
    Old Dominion....
    2017-18 (8-23)
    2018-19 (21-11)
    2019-20 (24-3, C-USA Coach Of The Year)

    Lets have this conversation over the next 2 seasons. Get back with this conversation during, and after next season...and beyond.

    I can't believe there are actually fans who truly believe she will keep her job after the up coming season. It's going to be a freaking disaster of a season.

    I was referring to trying to discuss the sport in general, but correct.

    As far as the locker room, Vic had way more problems dealing with what he had too versus Penson not controlling. Problem was solved by the time Penson took over and things got way worse for different reasons.

    I wasn?t super impressed with Brooks in the first place but was giving the benefit of the doubt.

    I?m usually against this strategy but I?d hire the one that can bring a solid post player with them somehow and then if they can?t coach at all try it again the next year.

    No point in arguing with the naysayers

    They have made their minds. Shouldn't be negating a good thread, but there are assholes everywhere in life.

    This will be an interesting season, any idea on post players? I saw the juco threads, before they turned to a shit storm like this one.

    Peace.

    Of the two hires the coach from Arizona was much more impressive. However I was willing to see regarding Coach Brooks.
