Good grief. Women lose by 37 to La Tech. Drop to 2-15.

Any way Peterson isn't gone after this year?

nope because we have no money to buyout Petey Boy and Pizza Boy out at the same time.

La Tech is coached by a 25-year old...

.

Actually Tyler Summitt, as in the son of THE Pat Summitt, is 24. He was 23 when La Tech hired him last April.

The son of Pat Summitt. Think he may know a thing or two about women's basketball?

He's already taken a 12-20 team and won 11 games.

So yeah, not only did Shanice Peterson get throttled on his home court in year three by a 24 year old first year head coach who is working with someone else's team, La Tech is paying him a base salary worth $25k less than what we're paying Peterson.

Not a fantastic start today for the ladies...

The Golden Eagles end the half on a 14-2 run & that’s the difference in score right now after 20 mins... Southern Miss 40 - North Texas 28.

At the U16: Southern Miss 49 - North Texas 28. Mean Green are scoreless so far this half & the Golden Eagles are in the midst of a 23-2 run.

Well....2-16 is looking like a real possibility.

Our C-USA Freshman POY seems to be adjusting well in the Big East.

Forget Benford, the fact that this blithering idiot Peterson still has a job proves there is no commitment to winning here.

Surely this will be his last season, no?

Would cost us a little offer $400,000 to buyout, no ? Still scratching my head why on earth we gave him a 5 yr contract worth a little over a million dollars

I couldn't help but thinking about last week listening to his post game after whatever loss, his saying "this is a really hard game", then thinking back to when he hired on, with him quoting his wife as saying, "you go places and fix things that are broken". And then he says, "but things aren't really broken here". So, maybe he's going through a process of breaking something bad enough where he can fix it? Hey, I just don't get it, except somewhere in the process of hiring him, RV said that he "is a friend".

So, maybe he won't be gone next year.

Being an old buddy from Ricks days @ TCU probably has something to do with it...

Because, and this is a direct quote......"No coach worth his salt would come here for less than 5".

funny how he would know when he has never tried it, but only at UNT does a BOR allow such garbage to go on.

Women lost to Rice, now 2-17. They've got some tough games coming up, too.

GMG24 · February 2, 2015

I talked to Liberty Christian HC yesterday, as of last week their girls were number 6 nationally, he said Peterson never even stopped by. Ignorant, Sydney Goodson, committed to ASU (Arizona) the hand twins, and a few more possible d1 girls... Just ignorant.

That's really discouraging to hear...
