Her job is not at risk.

I don't think it should. This is the dilemma - we want to win every game but at the same time, it may create a false positive in the narrative.
But of course, she could go 0-28 (three games worse than ULM) and have a safe job so it's not worth speculating about.

Many of you know I am a fan of Brooke's and have been advocating for her for years. But, her performance in the W-Ls and post season play (lack thereof) has fallen WAY short of what we should expect from Tech WBB. If her job was truly "not at risk," then it should be. 15-15 is NOT very Techster-like. She should be on the hot seat. That said, I do think the team has shown some improvement late in the season...that certainly manifested today...and that has been a trait of her coaching. I am willing to give her another full year to see if recruiting improves and then next year, we actually see something resembling Lady Techster basketball.
And, as I like her, I hope we do....

I might agree if this were Year 2 or even 3.

They play MTSU today - a team we actually beat 78-60 in Ruston this year. That was in January, so both teams are different, but we have a chance today!!!!! Also, if we win today, we avoid a losing season this year.

They're nice but I'd honestly like to see the traditionals more, especially for TV and tourney time. Feels like most of the away games I've been able to watch have not had the blues.
