It's not just the womens team it's all teams. We are starting to make excuses. The fact of the matter is Stutzman would have been a valuable 10-15 minute a game player a few years ago and Stanton would have helped this years team. There have been others who slipped away in the past Wolke for example(first big off the bench at Louiville after she left). I have heard some things about these players and I understand why they left. However when you have only 7 or 8 players these players are the difference between a totally exhausted team at the end of a game and a team that can easily hold a 17 point lead with 7 minutes to go. Maybe we drive away the borderline players and therefore our depth. I really don't know but it sure seems to happen a lot to us. I have never seen any statistics so for all I know every MAC level type team has this problem. If that is true so be it and I will shut up.

Also these excuses are beginning to bother me. We heard very little of that when Kennedy and Cartwright ran the show. I assume it is coming from our new mgt. and it really worries me. We are never going to be or have been a high $ program. I sense a defeatist attitude starting to seep in and it worries me.
