Don't quote me on this, however if there is a coaching change, the players may not have to sit out if they choose to leave. In CFB, players have a 30 day window.

The sit out rule no longer applies regardless the number of times a player has transferred. The windows may be applicable, however with the way the NCAA is going, I doubt they'll hold fast to these "guidelines" much longer. What is unfortunate is that these athletes have gone through a process to select a new team and won't play for the coach who recruited them.

NCAA allows transfers to be immediately eligible, no matter how many times they've switched schools

NCAA athletes will be immediately eligible to play no matter how many times they transfer — as long as they meet academic requirements.

What's she been up to? I seem to recall she landed somewhere as an assistant, but I might be making that up.

Not sure where she has been. Her daughter Kaeli just finished up her sophmore year at MD, so she will be coaching her for two more years. I remember Kaeli with her mom watching HS games when Jody was an asst coach for USC. Geez time goes bye,

The whole staff gets to move from Mississippi to North Carolina. Talk about an upgrade

Apparently Miami's new HC Tricia Cullop has retained highly regarded assistant coach Fitzroy after all (smart move) and has just added Muriel Page to her staff as well (also a smart move). Like what I'm seeing.

Quick announcement to replace Bluder -

Virtually had to name her Jan Jensen so the floodgates didn't open up with possible transfers and/or decommitments.
Only other person that came to mind ASAP was the former Jennie Lillis, (now Baranczyk), who spent her collegiate career at the University of Iowa as a great hoopster before becoming a good college coach.

Jensen is a terrific post coach and from everything I've read was the chief recruiter of Caitlin Clark and subsequently spent a lot of time with Clark during her career.

All power to Coach Bluder and Good luck to Head Coach Jensen.

Separate thread here and on main board.

That was so fast it makes me think it's been in the works for a while. Has there ever been a same day coach retired/new coach named before?

One Volunteer alum joins another. Think they overlapped for one year? (Elzy's a bit older, if memory holds).
Well, Elzy is known for recruiting and defense, so that fit's in the old 'Vol modus operandi.

They overlapped two years (99-00 and 00-01). Elzy didn't play in 98-99 due to injury.

This should be the last of the former Lady Vols. I've never been too keen on them.... Two volunteer limit

Just came across this. Perez would be an awesome mentor to have as a player in my opinion.
