Jalie needs to go

[Dannymacfan]

She has been here for 7 years and it isn't getting any better.  Players and coaches come and go like a revolving door. Jazion Jackson a 3 year letterwoman with us transfers to UTEP and becomes all conference?  WTF is going on?  And why are we cutting her slack?  We are no longer in C-USA and need to step up to a much tougher conference with the AAC.

Does Jalie coach football?

[ADLER]

Jalie has taken a historically awful women's basketball program and over eight years (111 - 126) elevated it to being consistently mediocre with a combination of successful and disappointing seasons. She may improve in the final years of her contract or she may tank. Either way, I hope we don't spend our limited budget buying out contracts in non-revenue sports.

I don't see a need to grab torches and pitchforks. Every coach in every sport is evaluated at the end of every season. This will be Jared Mosley's decision when/if the time comes.

Our AD is a basketball guy so I expect he'll be able to make an honest evaluation and make a change.

Currently, is women's BB our # four women's sport behind Softball, Soccer, and Golf?

She really likes being the coach here and I think she wants to be here.

People were grabbing torches and pitchforks to run Littrell out of town and he had more success. Mitchell has a 60-77 record in a poor conference. Like Littrell, it's become obvious Mitchell isn't the person to lead us into a much tougher league.

I am sorry for her and wish should could have done better but we have to let her go immediately.

Her season has been over for over a week now.....if she was gonna be let go.... I think it would have already happened.

I think part of her problems are injuries. Every year she has multiple players injured. Jaylen Mallard did not play at all after starting all of last year. I had no idea that Randy Thompson or Keira Neal were still on the team until they were recognized for senior night. Is it the S&C that needs to be improved to keep kids healthy or is it just bad luck? I don't know, but having multiple players missing every year is not doing her any favors. Randy Thompson played a lot her Freshman year and never really played again because of injuries. Keira Neal was injured her Freshman year and played some her sophomore year and never really played again because of injuries. I don't know how you can develop kids who can't stay healthy.
