Tyler Summitt Assistant Coach to Wife

Didn’t know that Tyler Summitt recently married his former player (at both Marquette and Louisiana Tech) Brooklyn Pumroy, that now she has been named head coach for the Fairborn Skyhawks of Fairborn, Ohio and that he will be her assistant coach.

Read “Three Years After Resigning Over "Inappropriate Relationship," Tyler Summitt Hired As Former Player And Current Wife's Assistant” by Patrick Redford at https://deadspin.com/three-years-aft...tio-1833849850

It looks like Brooke and Tyler had a baby together before they got married. https://www.facebook.com/bpumroy1 It looks like the wedding was in December 2018. https://www.amazingregistry.com/wedd...shx?a=99859514 I'm all for second chances, but I don't know if I would want Tyler coaching a teenage daughter of mine. I hope it all works out for everyone concerned. Brooke was an assistant coach at Fairborn after she left Tech.

He's still pulling down more money than I'm ever likely to see in my lifetime AND gets to coach, a position he shouldn't ever be able to sniff again.

Justice is slow.

They are only like 3 years apart. Don’t forget we were foolish enough to hire a 23 year old.

Our baby Athletic Director hiring a baby.

Okay, so Brooke Pumroy Summitt has been hired as the head coach for Fairborn, but no assistants have been hired - yet. Could it be Tyler will end up being the co-head coach or maybe a volunteer assistant? It's going to be interesting to see how this plays out. https://www.daytondailynews.com/spor...Tpt9NxBt5TkkJ/

I think anything Tyler Summit should be in the pit. He sickens me and is the worst hire EVER. That list includes Jerry Stovall and Larry Beightol.

Until Tommy moves after sucking all the life out of Tech, this will be a giant black stain that we cannot ignore.

Sounds like a LA Tech "Hall of Shame" right there. :laugh:

Should probably add the names of Jerry Lloyd and Carl Torbush.

Loyd at least coached a team in the NCAA Tournament and two NITs. Finished just one game below .500 even with 7-21 and 2-25 the other two years.

...using Eagles players! Once he had to recruit and coach, it was ugly!

Loyd did "recruit" Reggie Gibbs, if you can call it that. Kind of stumbled into signing him for that one year after Houston Baptist dropped hoops.

But yeah, mostly Loyd inherited a stacked team with Brown, Dade, Ellis, Guidry, etc...

Tyler won’t be coaching with his wife; Fairborn H.S. Athletic director Kevin Alexander is quoted this morning as calling last week’s announcement a “miscommunication.”

Sounds like some back peddling after it became a story to me.

unbelievable that the southland AD still has a job with us after this blunder

Here is what he is doing today. Awesome gig if you an get it.

Sounds B-O-R-I-N-G to me.

I can't help but think Louisiana Tech is at least partially responsible for his downfall, simply because we hired a 23-yr old boy to coach our women's program. It was one of the poorest decisions this school has ever made. That just had stupid written all over it. I honestly hope the kid recovers, and can move on with his life.

Pretty strong evidence in that story of why Summitt should have been fired before that 2015-2016 season. The fact that he wasn't is strong evidence as to why McClelland and anyone else in Tech administration who had knowledge of the situation or failed to fully investigate it should have been fired around the time Summitt resigned.

Tyler is drawing $173,000 a year for the rest of his life. He's doing okay. But, the damage he brought on others, including Tech, has never been made amends for.

This.

And also this scandal was grounds for McClelland's dismissal as well. He was covering this up. If there was ever a serious investigation heads would roll all the way up to the Top floor of the tower.

Quote:

---

Rochelle Vasquez, then a junior guard who was Pumroy’s roommate, said then-athletic director Tommy McClelland was among a handful of school officials who jointly asked her about the rumored affair in October, before the season started.
McClelland, who now works at Vanderbilt, declined to comment through a school official. Louisiana Tech did not respond to a request for comment.

---

IMO, the quote above is very damning for Tommy McClelland and Louisiana Tech. And neither McClelland or Tech are "responding" because they know they will have to explain, "what did you know, and when did you know it?" If Vasquez's story is true, then our former AD and "a handful of school officials" are guilty of not reporting the incident(s) for at least 7 months before Summit resigned in April. One could easily argue that our paid employees allowed the wrongdoing to continue for months. WTH?

There's no need for our fans to point fingers at LSU, or Baylor or anybody else accused of having lost "institutional control" when Louisiana Tech is guilty of the exact same thing. We had a married coach preying on student athletes. The biggest difference is, our "issues" were apparently covered up better.

Don’t tell TT about this

BS! While the whole Summitt mess was unfortunate and mishandled, it was still an incident of two consenting adults. It does not even begin to approach the travesties that occurred at Baylor and LSU. There is no moral equivalency...not even close.

Coach leverages player to have an affair. That's bad. AD and others knew about it happening and hoped it would go away. That's worse.

And still nowhere near what happened at Baylor and LSU. I am speaking to the incident itself...maybe you missed that part. As for the rest, heck! I was calling for TMAC to be fired for a number of reasons. This is just another nail in that coffin. I do hope the scandal follows him to Vandy and he gets fired there....Oh chit! what am I saying, Vandy is S-E-C!!!

Did Dr. Guise know about it and participate in the cover-up? If so, fire his worthless azz too!

Everything that I have read on this thread, I think, could lead one to believe that Tyler Summit divorced his first wife. I seriously doubt that. She probably kicked his butt out, and she should have. She left the relationship with her honor intact. Notice how carefully he says that no child resulted from his and Brooke's affair. I do not recall where he said no pregnancy resulted from same affair. Hmmmm! A lifetime endowment of $173,000 per year solves a world of problems when you are very ill equipped to step out into the cruel world on your own in search of similar results. Certainly frees one up to spew forth a lot of ideals. And, as an only child, he probably inherited all of Pat's assets. Just think--if he would have played by the rules and made the most of the opportunity given to him by Louisiana Tech where he might be today--guilt free.

The history of the Lady Techsters is filled with multitudes of talented and honorable personalities. Then there is Tyler Summit.

P. S. One of the most prominent personalities is Kim Mulkey. Much to the chagrin of dawg80, she just keeps piling on the positive publicity for the Techsters.

And Benedict Arnold was a brilliant general...he was 4-0 vs. the British in battles when he was in command. And then, due to his ultra ego, he stabbed our nation in the back. Taken as a whole there is nothing prominent or positive about Arnold.

And then there is pigtails...I loved how she got screwed on that no-call in her loss to UCONN. Loved it! And then, to boot, with all the talk about how the Baylor-UCONN game should have been a Final Four, if not the championship game, Arizona sent that nonsense to the trash heap too! LOL!

It is so easy to jerk your warped chain! Oh, and you usually throw in Hitler along with Benedict Arnold when Kim Mulkey is mentioned. What happened?

I feel so bad for AnDee.

I guess the moral of the story is that fame corrupts. Also, don't dip your pen in the company ink.

I did think I read a story a while ago about Pumroy that said she was not pregnant as a result of the affair. But I wouldn't put it past Summitt at that time to do what was necessary to protect his "good Christian boy" image. I hope he finds forgiveness.

Oh, you did it big boy--right here on BBB. It made insanely less sense than your Benedict Arnold analogy does which is zero. The only person that betrayed Tech was Dan Reneau. So you like how I think. I think Kim did a superb job of negotiating with Reneau. She ate his lunch, and as a result, she has achieved most, if not all of her career goals. She has proven that when women's basketball coaches are discussed, she deserves to be mentioned among the very best. Dan Reneau should be remembered for having made the worst decision in Tech sports history.

Thank you Ms. Pigtails....

I am on both sides of this.
1 - I can't stand Pigtails. She has all the talent in the world, but we all know she could have stayed at Tech. We couldn't give her a 5 year contract, but the real issue was she was nervous about taking on the tradition of the Lady Techsters and it was easier to take her chances building a Baylor program that was at the very bottom. She had the talent all along to keep the Lady Techsters at the top, but didn't. Plus, she blamed it on something else.
2 - As for Tyler Summit, what he did was SO wrong. No, he did not rape anyone, like some of the facts that came out of the Baylor program. And, what he did was not equivalent to lsu either. He and a player had an affair and ended up marrying each other. They were just a couple of years apart in age and we should have never hired him at such a young age. At the time, I was not against it - but it was not the right move. I hope his former wife continues to build her life and I hope he starts over building his and his wife's life together. I wish him no harm.
3 - A cover-up is a cover-up. No, the ones mentioned above are not equal, but they are still cover-ups. Our AD should have been fired, if he knew - and it sounds like he did. A coach or teacher has power over a student and it is an unequal relationship. It sounds like they fell in love, but who really knows. There certainly wasn't rape.

I don't follow Baylor, because I am a Tech fan all the way through. Some think of Baylor as an extension of Louisiana Tech with Kim there. IT IS NOT. They are a P5 school with loads of money. She does not represent Tech in any way, except for the fact that she played for us and was an Assistant to Barmore. For that I am grateful - the same as I am grateful for T-Spoon (not a great coach) or any other player that was a star and/or is a great coach from Louisiana Tech. Kim killed Tech in the media, though, so I don't care to watch her coach.

This is just my opinion and those that do follow her, that is fine with me. I am just hoping OUR program can get back on solid ground.

Good post Champ.

Tyler Summit may not have "raped" anyone, but make no mistake that he was clearly guilty of sexual harassment, if not much worse. Summit was clearly in a position of authority, hired by this university to oversee a group of young women. Talk about putting the fox in the henhouse! I laugh when some Tech fans try to brush off Summit's antics by saying, "well it was between consenting adults". You even tried to minimize the infractions in your last post above by saying, "he and a player had an affair, and ended up marrying each other". Almost as if to imply that everything is okay now, because they eventually married. Are you kidding? Please explain how one "consents" to a sexual affair when the person she is consenting to is a person in power who holds all the authority over them?

That's the root definition of sexual harassment.

This is very similar to what LSU is being accused of right now in BR, except their coaches apparently didn't have physical sexual contact with any of the students. (At least I haven't read that that's the case.) LSU's offenses apparently involved non-sexual contact between LSU's student workers and coaches. From what I've read, there's no actual evidence of physical sexual contact between an LSU student and Les Miles --or any other coaches-- that I'm aware of. The accusations against Miles appear to be more related to how he rudely communicated with others, talking too roughly to them, etc... In our case, it's much worse, because there WAS actual physical sexual contact between a faculty member (a coach), and a student. And now we're learning that apparently our former AD (and other officials) knew about it at least 6 months in advance of disclosure.

Baylor's infractions were totally different in that they involved student on student crime (or rape), which apparently wasn't reported properly by the school AD, school prez and/or other authorities. But the Summit case, involved direct physical sexual contact between an authority figure hired by the university and a student.

I don't think I excused his actions at all. I was drawing the difference in that and rape. Summit was wrong and I even called out a cover up.

This is correct.

Any business field out there will tell you don’t go having consensual affairs with your secretary. It’s a dismissible offense.

Ethics is something it seems like a lot of people struggle with today.

But everyone is conveniently MISSING the nuclear bomb in the middle of the article.

TMac KNEW about the affair and did nothing.

This is serious. I’m sure a ton of people want this to just go away, but this information makes me question our own athletic integrity.

As DFW would say whistle while you walk past the graveyard, because Tech is having its own fair share of questionable moral decision making.

2 - As for Tyler Summit, what he did was SO wrong. No, he did not rape anyone, like some of the facts that came out of the Baylor program. And, what he did was not equivalent to lsu either. He and a player had an affair and ended up marrying each other. They were just a couple of years apart in age and we should have never hired him at such a young age. At the time, I was not against it - but it was not the right move. I hope his former wife continues to build her life and I hope he starts over building his and his wife's life together. I wish him no harm.
3 - A cover-up is a cover-up. No, the ones mentioned above are not equal, but they are still cover-ups. Our AD should have been fired, if he knew - and it sounds like he did. A coach or teacher has power over a student and it is an unequal relationship. It sounds like they fell in love, but who really knows. There certainly wasn't rape.

I don't follow Baylor, because I am a Tech fan all the way through. Some think of Baylor as an extension of Louisiana Tech with Kim there. IT IS NOT. They are a P5 school with loads of money. She does not represent Tech in any way, except for the fact that she played for us and was an Assistant to Barmore. For that I am grateful - the same as I am grateful for T-Spoon (not a great coach) or any other player that was a star and/or is a great coach from Louisiana Tech. Kim killed Tech in the media, though, so I don't care to watch her coach.

This is just my opinion and those that do follow her, that is fine with me. I am just hoping OUR program can get back on solid ground.

I cheer for all TECH people and all TECH programs. My support for Kim has always been because I want all TECH people to do well. The hatred is hilarious to me. She did what any person would have done and followed the money-I would have done the same. I don't know or care about the rest of the story- none of us were there, and we all know how TECH people have done things in the past. I rarely watch a WBB game(maybe 2 this year), but I do wish good things for her- now I support Baylor because my kids go there. Tyler was a bad hire, and that should have been terminated immediately upon knowledge of what was going on! Anyone that knew about it should have been fired for letting it continue.

👍 one of my boys finished at Baylor after going Scho-pro at Tech after the first year. So I’ve followed the Baylor coverups with their big $$ and attorneys fairly well.

Reveling in the hate and/or misery of others will consume you and mess you up!�� It gets old--all this he said, we said junk--I would venture to say that not many on this board knew Kim as well as I did...we talked a good bit--my kid went to 6 of her BB camps too...and, she was a huge fan of my father in law--
Glad she has done so well...good for her..Kim had an ego bigger than Lincoln Parish, and, of course, so did DR...the clash of the titans...I have no idea WHY all of this keeps coming up over and over like somebody has "all the scoop"; there were serious mistakes made on both sides of the aisle for sure......just be thankful she played for us and put us on the map until money overwhelmed us....
Today--we could be semi decent and semi relevant on a small scale if NOT FOR SOME TRULY AWFUL HIRES....IMO, it would take an AWESOME HIRE AND SOME AWESOME RECRUITING to even get us back to "unembarassing"...WBB is so irrelevant on campus now..it's too bad...

She put us on the map? Funny. She didn’t even put WBB on the map. She was part of the non-revenue program but certainly not what FJ, Hogg, and Barmore were. She did pitch her fit at the perfect time to bring herself attention and turn many fans away from the horribly boring “sport”.

Pretty soon men pretending to be women will be playing WBB.

Rumor is that Kim Mulkey has agreed to become new coach at LSU

pigtails has always wanted to be part of LSU. She said she would have played there if LSU had been further up the ladder, and only chose Tech for purely selfish reasons, to play at the best program possible. She's always wanted to coach there too. So, if this rumor is true, she joins the ranks of the puke purple and vomit yellow legions...tch tch...but doesn't change my opinion of her.

We have heard these rumors before. I will wait to hear her say she is going to LSU.

This is probably where the "rumor" got started. This is an interview with Kim Mulkey on April 16th, on the Jordy Culotta show, in Louisiana. You have to watch this one all the way thru. Kim also mentions that Leon Barmore is currently facing some serious health challenges. She asked Leon to induct her into the Hall of Fame, but because of his health challenges, he couldn't do it. So, she deferred to have Michael Jordan induct her instead.

Does anyone have any info about Leon's health situation that can be shared?

If so, please start another thread and don't discuss it in this cesspool created by our former AD.

Yeah I saw that when it came out, also a couple of journalists mentioned this too. Not sure LSU even wants to make that big an investment in womens basketball. They were paying their coach around $600,000, Mulkey makes $2.27 million. Plus what is Mulkey's buyout? LSU just spent spent 8 figures paying off coach O's mis-hires, plus all of the new guys increased salaries. They are also figuring to be laying out money for the Guise situation, the Miles situation and at some point the basketball situation is going to come to a head. Wow things are a mess in Baton Rouge.

Kim does like to talk about Kim though.

How much are we paying altogether for our co-coaches?

Too much for the results we are getting.

The pain and damage from poor decisions continue. It's a lifetime burden to bear, but the past can't be undone. I just hope the past doesn't end up messing up their kid. He doesn't deserve any harm based on the decisions of his parents before he was born. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/still-f...110144242.html

Living off moms pension. Cool.

He’s willing to give an interview, but still won’t state the following plainly: “I cheated on my wife with a subordinate.”, much less take some ownership over a dumpster fire of a situation of his own creation.

I think we all know a few with these less than desirable traits.

It’s Christmas, so I’m being as nice as I can about it.

Dude couldn't keep the mouse in the house.

Coaching girls for sure. Good decision was made not to try to apply for that assistant's job.
