Lisa Stockton got a new contract in 2017. She's not going anywhere anytime soon. For me, it's unclear exactly what happened to this team. They seemed to miss a lot of easy shots near the goal and never really had that go-to person. Upper classmen became less and less a factor as the year went on. The young core of Freeman, Cheatham, Jones, Heide, Gutierrez (and Mimms redshirting) played well individually, but never really gelled as a team. Maybe that was a deficiency in the upper classmen.

It would be reasonable to question if these young players will be developed to their full extent by the assistants. This staff has been together a long time and may be getting too comfortable/complacent.

I have absolutely no information or facts. But when teams tank like this, there's usually some internal ruckus going on.
Stockton did the program no favors hiring a friend instead of a top recruiter last time there was an assistant opening.

And the season ends with a non-effort against Cincy. 5-11 in conference, as the coronation continues.

What started out as a promising season crashed and burned quickly following the crushing defeat at the hands of UConn. That was a home game, and Tulane had the longest winning streak in the conference going into that game! We were brutally bad from that point on.

Yep the U Conn game was the turning point.
Stockton should have embraced being in a league with U Conn; it was an opportunity to naturally elevate the program. Instead she's complained and whined about U Conn, and, except for 1 game, U Conn has beaten us worse than just about any AAC team they've played (even the ones we were better than).

Looked at the Tulane website and there was no article on the game. I didn’t even know we played.

So is Dannen going to ignore this debacle like he ignored women's golf the last few years?
