September means changing my profile pic!
This is Honor Elizabeth Wainio, she was on the flight that fought back, Flight 93!
She is from Baltimore!
Never Forget!
The next ref who calls a taunting or a T on a WBB player for showing emotion, should be suspended one game. If a kid makes a great play & yells at her bench or the crowd- that’s a kid showing emotion.
Taunting is doing that in the direction or in the face of the other team.
I remember
@YolettMcCuin
1st year
@OleMissWBB
. They won 9 games. Some very vocal fans were upset & saying the hire was a mistake. Where are those fans now?
Too many schools expect their HC to win, but they are poorly funded, offer a little support, have bad facilities, & really just don’t give a damn.
So they keep cycling through coaches every few years, & get the same results.
better support equals better results!
When James Meredith became the first black student at UM, he needed FEDERAL troops to protect him.
Now he is UM royalty! I hope every student knows who James Meredith is, & how important he is!
🚨🚨James Meredith is the OG trailblazer here at UM. Lets honor his legacy: help us commit to making the J. Meredith Legacy Scholarship a premiere scholarship for generations of Mississippians to come. GIVE NOW: ()

All the young women Cathy Inglese touched. All the coaches in basketball that Cathy Inglese touched. All the fans that Cathy Inglese touched.
We will never forget her impact on WBB! RIP Cathy Inglese!
Memo, if your're on lockdown, NEVER, share on social media anything the police are doing!! The person they police are looking for may also see your social media post!! Citrus College

has clinched it's first winning season since the 94-95 season! They are 16-11 with 2 games left.
That's 26 years! Great job by the staff & players!!

Texas realtors should stop the practice of not showing blacks homes they financially qualify for, but the neighbors want the neighborhood to stay lily white!
The Weber St. hiring of Velaida Harris- first African-American women in any sport in the state of Utah is great!! Great job by

If a HC uses interest from another school for a contract extension or pay raise, great. I have no issues with that. If the HC takes that offer by another school, great, I have no issues with that. But, then don't get on kids who want to transfer for whatever reasons!

She defended Baylor after that Art Briles allowing criminals & rapists on the football team! She actually said hit them if they say anything bad about Baylor! Why are you surprised now?
Talk about hypocrisy!
Alana Rizzo dated a player she was covering. She was married to another man at the time!
So save the sanctimonious preaching for something else Alana!
"And then some jackoff comes in at the end of the season that gets a credential, God only knows why. And the clubhouse is a sacred space." Alanna Rizzo went off on Jake Mintz's clubhouse reporting on MLBN's "High Heat" Thursday.
Has anybody noticed what a great turnaround season it's been for
@UNDwbasketball
? 2-19 last year, 12-8, 6-3 in conf., so far this year!
A great job by

I hate seeing AAU team only advertise how many kids they send to P5 schools! That's roughly 75 schools!! There are another 275 schools offering full scholarships- FREE EDUCATION!
This is absolutely ridiculous! The disrespect for WBB is staggering! Tons of coaches and players and staff work their asses off for this moment! But the

This is not correct! When getting your driver's license, you CAN register to vote. Just because you get your DL, doesn't mean you are automatically registered to vote!
@Ariannnyy_
It's also wrong or outdated!
There have been three Cal States built since 1980- San Marcos, Monterey Bay, Channel Islands. And one UC- Merced!
You know what’s really cool; there are coaches I’ve followed on Twitter, since they started as a GA or DOBA and are now HC or the top AC!
Congrats to all! You worked your asses off to reach those positions!

They,

Last three years of the previous staff they won 13 games total!
What a great job rebuilding this program by

Tough one to digest today…being so close and coming up short. But so thankful for the journey of this season with this special group. They never settled for the strides they made & continued to grow in all facets. So proud of what this team accomplished. 🖤💛

The wording of many headlines about the passing of Michael Collins really bother me. Michael Collins was just as important as Neil Armstrong & Buzz Adlrin to Apollo 11, without Collins the 2nd part of JFK's vision wouldn't come true- bringing him safely back to the earth!
Past 2 days, I saw great coaching, kids playing their asses off-competing, leaving everything out on the court!! One thing I hate about some WBB fans, they think seeing teams from certain confs, is below them. Those morons are missing out on some very talented players & coaches
Anybody notice what a great start & turnaround by
@UIC_WBB
led by first year HC
@Abracey40
& staff? They have doubled their total wins from last year with their win today!!
When Mike Leach was fired at Texas Tech, I thought it was a rich, entitled kid, whose father had a big voice, getting a coach fired. Nothing has changed my mind since that time.
Not having Leach coaching for two or three years, wasn’t good for college football!
RIP Pirate!

The scumbag that killed two El Monte officers, should have been in jail for 2-3 years! Instead slimeball

gascon has the blood of these two officers on his hands!!
I can't imagine many kids today, sitting on the bench for three years & staying for their senior year! With the portal, they would leave ASAP!
Bravo to
@umichwbball
Danielle Rauch! She started every game as a senior!!
Sometimes I wonder if the players know all the BS their HC’s go through with admin?
Many coaches are fighting so the kids can have a great experience! Travel, hotels, food! If MBB is eating steak & staying at a Hilton, WBB shouldn’t be eating McDonald’s & staying at Motel 6!

The former head of

resigned & got a MILLION dollar golden parachute! I wonder what how much these 3 board members golden parachute will be? Just disgusting! If changes come to USA Gymnastics, one should be, if a board member resigns in scandal, they receive NOTHING!
I am excited for this new journey with Mason Nation. I want to thank Dr. Washington, Brad Edwards and Debi Corbatto for this incredible opportunity to serve this esteemed University.

One of the toughest jobs in D1 is

Of course the military requirement.

Another 1st year HC who has done a great job turning around the program is
@CoachJustice10
, HC
@BearkatsWBB
. They won only 4 games last year. She & her staff has already won 14 games!
When
@WSUWBasketball
hired
@CoachTrina_WSU
it was a school giving a black female coach a chance as a HC, after she got a show cause penalty. White coaches get 2nd chances after show cause! She learned from her mistakes & now both WSU & her are rewarded!!
You never heard of men challenging Flo Jo to a race in the 100M!
So, why do some men think they can beat a

player? Just b/c you hoop at the gym with other weekend warriors, doesn’t mean you can beat a pro women’s basketball player!
A WBB jaw dropping moment today- a WBB HC has been hired as a

5 black females will be 1st time D1 HC's next year; Tasha Pointer, Tina Thompson, Marisa Moseley, Tomeika Reed at a HBCU, Alex Simmons. Raven Justice moved from a HBCU. Yolett McCuin & Michelle Clark-Heard got HC jobs at bigger schools. 8 black females hired out of 29 openings

As an Orioles fan, they got HOFer Frank Robinson from the Reds, b/c the Reds didn't want an "aging" black player. Frank would only win the Triple Crown, & lead the Orioles to 2 WS!

@ChandaRigby
name or her hiring! I mean what more does she have to do?
With conf awards being announced- the Coach of the Year award, should be renamed Coaching STAFF of the Year. The HC always gives credit to their staff anyways! Recognize the contributions of AC's, DOBO, managers!!
I really admire the coaches & schools in 1 bid confs, who win their conf. tourney on a regular basis! Everybody is after them, yet they are still dancing!

I think it was Kenny Williams, at the time the White Sox GM. He said something like when Kim is in the room, you know she is in charge. She would be a great GM. This was around 2004 or so.
If you live in a city where your team was stolen, and you continue to support that team in their new city, you are a TRAITOR! You can support the PLAYERS on that team, but NEVER support that team!
Breath in, breath out, Lady Vols fans!! Repeat after me, Pat Summit is a once in a lifetime HC. Those kinds of coaches don't grow on trees! Breath in, breath out!
