Well that'll make her last year before retirement a bit rockier.

(Gearalds, who was just added to staff, is set to take over for 22-23.)

Dang! One of the coolest coaches around! I have attended many of her basketball camps as a volunteer coach and she always seemed level headed... but I ain't around the program 24/7 either. If these allegations are true, she will probably step down before the season even starts. It would be too much of a distraction and she would want to avoid any additional attention to the program. We are like 63 days out before official practice begins and this bombshell drops. Holy smokes!

Seems like she's been coaching a long time. Did she suddenly create a toxic and hostile
environment, or did she fail to evolve to accommodate the enhanced sensitivities of today's
players? Either way, it looks like she's ready for retirement.

She took over a strong program and in the last 7-8 years it has taken a turn for the worse. She hasn't been able to right the ship with players transferring, subpar recruiting, poor player development. It doesn't help that Indiana under coach Moren has passed Purdue by too.
