She's a good motivator and very personable and very well liked. I met her at one of our alumni functions a year ago. She definitely is positive and upbeat. I like her a lot. That being said, the knock on her is that she's a great motivator but not so great when it comes to game time and x's and o's.

She will be missed, but hopefully we can get someone that will take us to the big dance once in awhile.

LOLOLOL!!!! Good one.

I hope she works out for you. She's good people.

Also UNCW is near and dear to my heart. My oldest is an alum. Now how does the daughter of two ODU alumni end up going to UNCW? And our younger one went to VTech! Where did we go wrong? Oh well, could be worse, could be JMU or VCU. lol

Prettier beaches down this way!

Nicer sand for sure. When she graduated we rented a beach house at Wrightsville. We had a great time. Blacksburg, VA is such a rip off. We have a friends daughter graduating this year at Tech, and they are paying more for a 4 bedroom house for 4 days, than we did for the beach house in Wrightsville! I never felt Wilmington took advantage of the kids, at least not to the extent that Blacksburg does. Maybe because VT is THE industry in Blacksburg. Ok, I'll get off my soapbox now.

UNCW was perfect for her. Perfect size school, nice campus. She thrived there.

I miss living down at the beach but get back often. That said, next time, go to one of the more rural beaches like Topsail, Emerald isle etc. WB is nice but it's gotten very pricey and crowded.

I love Sunset Beach and Oak Island personally. I saw recently that WB is the most expensive zip code in NC. But, WB is pretty incredible when your 21 years old.

Is this hire official yet?

Yeah BC beaches are nice too. We are playing golf in Sunset at Thistle in 2 weeks on our way to MB.

Hire should be official this afternoon.

We spent a week at Topsail several years ago. My only gripe was lack of eating establishments in close proximity. Maybe that's changed?

There is about a half dozen decent(non fast food) places on the island. Definitely not commercialized, that's why i like it. Don't mind going out for a bite once or twice, but i'd rather catch(or go to fish market) and cook it fresh at the house!

That's what was being said about softball and look at them now. And were you saying the same thing about men's basketball during our as agonizing 10 year stint?

I think this hire will work out for you all.

Putting Keatts and McGrath to shame, KB has already signed her first commitment:

Chinyere Bell will play for Karen Barefoot at UNC Wilmington. The 6-foot junior has transferred there from George Mason.

How about this tid bit; she's the cousin of NBA Hall of Famer (’77) and 11-time NBA All-Star, Elgin Baylor. She sounds like a good player.

Elgin Baylor - wow that is a blast from the past. Arguably better hangtime than Jordan.
