I'll say this, Brooke is a step up from the Boy Wonder. As I posted about thousand times that guy is clueless about basketball. Our program was going nowhere under him. I watched the Lady Demons and I watched the Techsters play over the past two years, and the Lady Demons were waaaaay better coached. Besides, I like Brooke and never really cared for Summit.
Will her hiring translate into great and wonderful things? That depends on how you define "success." The years of Final Four appearances are long gone for us. No, I refuse to think a FF appearance is impossible, but it will have to be an improbable run like Virginia Commonwealth did in MBB back in 2011. Yes, it could happen. But...
More importantly, I think we will see our Techsters performing up to their potential. Brooke will squeeze every ounce of success out of the team. They will go as far as their talent permits them to. And THAT IS GREAT! No under-achieving allowed.
And, she will run a clean program with high academic achievement and graduation rates.
I'll finish with this....I forgive you for your expressing dispersion on Brooke back then, when you posted what you did. Your 100% devotion to the Techsters over the years has earned for you the right to have a hiccup, now and then. I know we share this: we want to see the Techsters be successful.
Go Techsters!
