Much like Oats a year ago...It seems like it would be a smart move for Bolden to stay and enjoy an awesome returning team for another year and parlay it into big time offers.

Xavier job is filled. Somewhat surprised they chose to go with a coach with no previous HC experience...

Is that, well, legal? I realize that they are a private university, but still...doubt many of us could say that while conducting a job search and not get sued.

Imagine the backlash if, say, Geno A. asserted that he wouldn't hire a female coach. Yikes.

Catholic schools at the primary and secondary level fire female teachers for using fertility treatments for pregnancy. They obviously operate under a different set of rules.

Being real honest here...

With all the coach bullying stories surfacing, I wonder if Bolden's courtside demeanor becomes a non-starter.

Surprising. I think she's an excellent coach, but shame Miami couldn't get a championship out of her.

Tennessee is apparently hiring former Volunteer and current Missouri State coach Kellie Harper. Apparently this is still unconfirmed but if true I don't think there are many threatening positions out there.

She’s did quite well in 2 years. I’d say she is a rising star in
women’s B.B. and has a very bright future ahead of her. Quite a list of credentials.

I wouldn't think so. I've found his demeanor to be pretty calm and quiet most of the time. Occasionally he does get really tough on his players, but they seem to respond well.

They've been allowed to discriminate based on religion in some areas of employment and benefits, but I haven't seen where they can discriminate based on gender.

Is the Bob-watch over yet? Are we safe to look ahead to a great Bob-lead talent rich 2019-20 season?

This is a bit OT.
I never realized how soon after the National Championship the WNBA held their draft.

The championship game was Sunday,the draft,Wednesday.

Probably because they only have 12 teams instead of 30 and their season starts in about six weeks. And I don't think they have a development league like the NBA does, so a combine and other tryouts really aren't necessary.
