What this really does emphasize is that Rice basketball (men and women) will never be able to sustain success unless we find that "magic" coach who wants to spend his/her career at Rice. This is about as desirous as Rice WBB has ever been - should have been two NCAA tournaments in the past 3 yrs, finally cracked the top 25, WNIT champs. And yet our coach leaves and...we've got four of our starters transferring. If the program as it stands isn't something that players want to be a part of, then I'm not sure what the solution is apart from hoping we have a good coach stay for 15+ years. I'm much more negative about this than I am when Rhoades left because despite the potential, that team hadn't won anything. Those were players transferring out of a program on the rise but that might have been an NIT team at best. This is players transferring out of a winning program where the expectations next year were NCAA tournament or bust.
