Tulane WBB destroyed by Houston

[greenie78]

Just lost 82-36 on ESPNU to a 7-13 team.

Stockton should resign the second she gets back to campus. Actually she should be fired in-flight, but that would cost us more money.

Not happening she does not play in the game!!!

In her quarter century with the team, Stockton has taken Tulane to 11 NCAA tournaments and seven WNIT appearances while winning six conference regular-season and tournament championships

In spite of some past moderate successes, I think most of us have enough of this act. Coach Stockton will never be fired and will never coach anywhere else, so what is the incentive? She is simply coaching for the paycheck and it shows.

That being said, how much resources should be put into this? We are in a 1-bid league and, aside from UConn, that team never gets very far. There are not enough legitimate women basketball players (even worldwide) to make a non-P5 program viable. We could maybe get a new up and coming coach every 3 years and get some temporary success, but is it worth it? It's not a priority for Tulane and I'm not sure it should be. No matter how well you do, you're not really going to compete with P5. I hate watching this program be so bad, but how good do any of us think it could be from the AAC?

Meanwhile across Freret Street former Tulane assistant coach Kellie Kennedy having a tremendous year.
She’d be a good fit should Lisa retire.

The No. 10 Loyola Wolf Pack just don't lose when they're playing in the friendly confines of The Den. On Saturday, Loyola captured its 26th straight win in its home gym with a 67-55 win over the Mobile Rams.


Loyola (19-1, 12-1 in SSAC) will next host Faulkner (17-5, 9-3) on Thursday at 5:30 p.m. in a battle of the first- and second-place teams in the Southern States Athletic Conference standings.

There's no P5 in basketball, especially women's basketball. And Stockton doesn't come cheap anyway.

She is well paid so we could do better for less.

She should be high on the list of candidates.

Have no idea what you are saying but it would not be allowed to underfund any women's sport on campus compared to the men's, discrimination lawsuit would be following. Women's sports have to be fully funded and attempt to be competitive!!!

Build a new arena and go get a good coach.

My point is, what is a realistic goal for Tulane women's basketball from the AAC? Except for the anomaly of UConn, USF has been the class of the conference and they have been to the NCAA 2nd round one time. They don't even make good runs in the WNIT. If we were better than them, how far would that get us? Again, I hate looking at what our program is and I am NOT defending Stockton, but reasonable people would step back and ask what is a REALISTIC goal. It's easy to say we should contend in the NCAA tournament, but then you have to ask why no one else in our conference can do it.

You play to win the conference. We do judge by wins and losses. It's clear she needs to be gone and we can get more for less with a good hire. That's on the AD to get it done.
