Coach P's good at basketball, not so much with geography.

I think RJ is just really excited to be back east, as he is from Arkansas originally. (Said after noting his last job was on the west coast.)


Someone in another thread mentioned Michele Van Gorp, looks like she will stay put as director of recruiting operations. Can't complain about the job she's been doing, but it is a bit surprising she hasn't moved to the coaching side.

west coast of the Mississippi?

perhaps it's just late, but I'm trying to figure out how that makes her geographically challenged...Duke is east of the west coast, is it not?

eta: I guess the point is that Arkansas isn't exactly "east"

Well, since Arkansas is on the western side of the Mississippi...

Pacific University is 2,043 miles from the University of Arkansas. Duke is 1,008. I think we know what she means.

Is it this part of the off season already?

WBB had a good season last year, and little turmoil AFAIK. Last year was a probation year in my eyes, and I think the staff passed.

Kevin White is obviously willing to stay the course, so absent further turmoil so am I.
