Wow big loss for Coach Pete...

[GrandGreen]

Well again, Petersen loses his best player. Lucky, Benford is providing cover.

And it's girls basketball...

Wonder if this is a case of girls thinking they can play at bigger places. Will be interesting to see where she goes. Petersen declining to comment is interesting to me.

[elitebball]

From what I've heard from many of the girls and people associated with the team is that they love Petersen.

It has to just be a sign of the times. If a coach like Benford and Calipari can't keep players for more than 1 or 2 years, you can't hold it against coach Pete?

Ummm . . . Calipari's players are going to the NBA after 1 or 2 years. Benford is a train wreck. So which of the two are you saying Coach Petersen is?

Didn't coach B have a big man last year and another big man this year leave early to go pro?

This may well be totally her decision and there may not have been anything Coach Pete or anyone else could do about it.

That said -- We have to get better at holding on to players.

[greenit]

It will be interesting to hear a few more details as they come out. Hard to make forward progress when these types of things continue to come up.

Hopefully he can address the issue before it becomes a trend.

I'm thinking Gaines is going to follow the example seen in those NCAA commercials...

did we just gain an 'Andrew' for the women's basketball team?

[GrayEagle]

She was recruited by Karen Aston. Do you think that it's possible that she ends up at UT? She's from that area.

I think she was the best player on NT's team, but Aston's recruits are now way above her level. I really think that contrary to some posts that Petersen is just not relating to his players which with his experience is surprising. Based on what I have seen at the games he is far from the beloved coach some seem to think.

Transfers seem to be a sign of the times. If memory serves,Johnny's program was largely based upon transfers.

There were some transfers but the base of the program was built on high school recruits.
