RE: Karen Barefoot is Gone, Finally
Fantastic news! While I like Barefoot as a person having talked to her a few times, our woman's program has been stuck at mediocre for to long. Hopefully we can get that program moving in the right direction then follow that up by doing the same to the men's program.

we just lost recruit Dazia Powell, the Camp twins will probably follow. What is the minimum number of players a team can technically have at a school? Karen couldn't of left us in a worse situation, I do not respect her at all.

RE: Karen Barefoot is Gone, Finally
Daziaa Powell looks like she could have helped the program so it hurts to read she's chosen to re-open her recruitment. Was looking forward to seeing her in a Lady Monarch uniform. Oh well, wish her well. After all is said and done, I suspect Selig will hire a great coach and all will be fine. Go Lady Monarchs!

If they hire someone quickly, they might be able to resign them, like Jeff Jones did with Blaine's recruits.

Agree ... not a fan of Karen's timing here.

Smart of her to grab a parachute before getting canned for not making the tournament.

RE: Karen Barefoot is Gone, Finally
Honestly, this is a huge blessing. The women's team definitely wasn't going to make the NCAAs next year, and surely Barefoot knew that. The timing is horrendous, but I'm questioning why UNCW wanted KB as coach anyway - beats me.

Let's get a good coach who has a track record of success, and start the ball rolling! We need someone who can recruit and knows how to lead a team to wins. Surely there is someone out there who can return (even a little) glory to Lady Monarch basketball!

I think if you want to practice/scrimmage you need 10 with a spare or two. Guess could use some guys to practice with, like Wendy use to do. Had a good friend that Wendy would use in the glory days. Some of those girls were pretty scrappy. Hope Wood and the search team find us a good one.

Belle Koclanes' (assistant coach under Wendy) brother Chris was on the girls scrimmage squad. Now that I think of it when I first started at ODU, our women were still ranked under Wendy. Becca, Mari, Jackie and the squad.

I used to play tennis with Chris. He was pretty good.

Hard to believe that a recruiter as good as Karen could be such a bad coach. She'd make a fantastic assistant.

Last time we went to the Sweet 16, Karen was a assistant. Great recruiter and energy person.

It gives the new incoming coach a chance to really start from scratch. I just hope this fanbase is patient enough to give the new coach 3 years of rebuilding...

It's time for Wood to finally hit a home run.
