1. They hate WBB and she's good enough where its a small focus at KSU and some morons aren't okay with that.
2.  She's a bible thumper
3.  Possibly gay :dunno:
4.  She was mean to some managers once and the KC Star wrote about it
5.  Many people who know anything about KSU basketball only know the Wecker, Ohlde, Koehn years and Deb and Kendra left on bad terms.  As if she's the only coach that didn't get along with some of her players.  Kendra wanted to do what Kendra wanted to do, she didn't get along great with some of her teammates either.  These things happen and neither of them are wrong, but people are stupid and are either hypocritical or don't understand group dynamics, likely both.

Deb is my boo :love:

would currie be a jackass and suspend the female basketball player??? oh, and call the NCAA about it???

Her wingspan is two inches shorter than Anthony Davis'.  She's a junior.  Baylor has the second best point guard in the country who's only a sophomore.  Next year they will have the most dominant season in the history of men's or women's college basketball.

PATTERSON `CURIOUS' ABOUT HER TEAM


Nov. 1, 2012


By Mark Janssen


"Curious."

In a word, that's how Kansas State coach Deb Patterson sums up her feelings about her 2012-13 women's basketball team heading into play tonight at 7 against Fort Hays State in an exhibition game slated for Bramlage Coliseum.

"I'm curious as to what I'm going to see with this group," said Patterson of her team that includes seven first-year players. "We've been working hard to establish an understanding of the speed and physicality with which you have to play at this level of basketball."

Game tonight was kind of ugly.

First off, props to FHSU. They're pretty good, and their tall girl really caused some problems.

However, K-State should have done much better. Shot selection was horrible. I don't have a problem with Brittany Chambers taking 6 threes in a game.  She can shoot. But she needs to pick her shots better.  A lot of shots tonight were forced by our players.

That was my main concern.  My other concern is our lack of height. We are not a tall team. This could cause some problems down the road.
especially against Griner :ohno:

protip, we are not very good this year at all.  And Chambers taking 6 threes a game will be a minimum this season, she took 4 in the 10 minute scrimmage.  Spread, drive, kick out is the entirety of the offense this year.

It doesn't look very good for this year. And yeah, that was pretty much the offense tonight.  We didn't have enough size to go down low. We got lucky sometimes and picked up some cheap baskets down there when Fort Hays wasn't looking... but we don't have much of a post game.

Deb should either be let go or take a 60% pay cut.  The money would be better spent elsewhere within the AD.  We can get someone else for much less and get the same mediocre results.  Also, its widely known that she has been romantically involved with some of the players which is incredibly unethical and unprofessional.  Its time for ksu and deb to part ways.

Made it as an "automatic qualifier" because the top seven B12 teams were invited to the NCAA tournament. Although we tied for the next best record with Texas, we split the season series with the Horns and beat them in the conference tourney. Another owning of Texas.

As MiR has pointed out this team has suffered through a tremendous amount of injuries this year, going this deep, on the back of Chambers has shown there is a lot to this team.

That and having no one on the roster taller than 6' 1" makes it even more impressive. God save that poor player that had to guard Griner.

Losing Chambers will absolutely hurt, her ability to stretch the defense won't be replaced. Just looking at what we're losing I'd be inclined to say we will be worse next season. That being said we will (should) have a full roster next season led by Hailey Tejada who had a much better season in 12-13 than I anticipated. Also Deb has earned the right for her to get credit for being a very good coach. Not accounting for her two conference titles, what she did this season was amazing and if not for an undefeated Baylor she should have and would have been conference COY. This team had no business winning any more than 10 total and 3 conference games.

I'm going to say we will at the very least be as good as we were this season but I would be shocked if we weren't at least 4 games better.

I agree with MIR's analysis. The Cats could also be even a bit better if a couple of the frosh recruits develop rapidly and the injured players come back well.

Uh, I wasn't kidding at all. Frank is dumb for not retiring Jake's jersey either on his senior night or the season immediately after, although I'm sure Currie wouldn't have allowed it. It makes no logical sense to wait for some moronic arbitrary time period to retire a deserving jersey or number. Tomorrow isn't guaranteed to anyone.

From who?

how many years does it take to build a program?

Every weekend I walk by the BTF I see 3 Big 12 trophies. Someone want to tell me the last kstate coach in any sport with more than 2 conference championships. Certainly not within the last 30 years, right?


Real talk though, any athletic director outside of Stanford, UCONN, and Tennessee that has a WBB coach with 2 conference titles, no embarrassing scandals, and most importantly regularly in the top 25 nationally in attendance would love the hell out of that coach. The standard for non-revenue coaches is rightfully different. Any AD who fires a women's coach with 2 conference titles, a .620 winning percentage and took teams to the post season 14 out of 17 seasons should find new work. Snyder has missed the post season as many times in his last 7 seasonss than Deb has in 17, and half of the wbb teams aren't invited to play beyond the regular season.

Woman's basketball is awful, just about the worst thing ever, but I watched a few minutes of the ladycats bumblefuck around against Wichita State and was astounded at how horrible the team is.  Deb hasn't won anything in a long time and obviously is coasting on whatever success she had with that one really good group of small town girls.  She needs to be shown the door.  I'd expect a biddy ball team to have more of a clue than the crap show she ran out there.

It's tough to explain bec I don't know what the argument was really about but it was clearly not about basketball. The whole team looked at each other and it got super awkward.  Kammie had the look of "oh crap wish this laundry was being cleaned behind closed doors".  I'm sure all college coaches lose their minds at times but this left the realm of basketball. I don't know maybe this happens everywhere?  :curtiskelly:  When Frank threatens Spracnes family in a fiery death I'm sure he does it a non personal matter.   :nono:

$1.725 million in base pay compensation over that time frame.

Women's Basketball Operating Loss:
(approx)

K-State's women's basketball program total expenses, including game travel/game hosting etc. etc.   

Could have covered the entire budget of OU's National Champion Women's Softball team, and WVU's 2 time Big 12 Champion Women's Soccer team with approx: $300K left over, based on 2013 EADA filings; that includes all game day and travel expenses.  Based on my at-a-glance calculations.

Dax WBB will always operate at a loss and you know that. That is a stupid argument as to whether or not you keep a non revenue coach. If you are making the decision as purely a fiscal one you should keep Deb until Shalee is ready. People like you who are so vocal for Deb to get fired isn't spending a dime on wbb. There are more of me, people whip are fine with Deb and spend money on supporting the program, than people who won't support the program while deb is still here. Let them do something like bringing in a Louisville assistant and then have that coach lose, what will happen to that revenue then?

Deb is fine, our wbb revenue and attendance is decent, she doesn't have much time left coaching anyway. Barring a total collapse I'm good with her having 3-5 more years and then handing it over to Shalee who will certainly give attendance a shot in the arm.

What would you like to compare, the fact that OU women's basketball makes almost 7x's the amount of revenue than K-State WBB (for example).

All women's sports operates at a loss, that's news to no one.   

Why spend all that money to finish at the bottom? 

When you start paying a WBB's coach $600K a year and you build her facilities that are exactly equal to the men's team in every way, you have to expect more than swirling around at the bottom of the conference and getting blown off the floor.

Could have covered the entire budget of OU's National Champion Women's Softball team, and WVU's 2 time Big 12 Champion Women's Soccer team with approx: $300K left over, based on 2013 EADA filings; that includes all game day and travel expenses.  Based on my at-a-glance calculations.

Such a bullshit post, there are like three people reading this thread, your numbers magic tricks aren't going to work, I read equity in athletics reports too & I know exactly why you didn't compare basketball program with other basketball programs.

What would you like to compare, the fact that OU women's basketball makes almost 7x's the amount of revenue than K-State WBB (for example).

All women's sports operates at a loss, that's news to no one.   

Why spend all that money to finish at the bottom? 

When you start paying a WBB's coach $600K a year and you build her facilities that are exactly equal to the men's team in every way, you have to expect more than swirling around at the bottom of the conference and getting blown off the floor.

If you're going to keep being intellectually dishonest then we might as well stop the conversation. You were talking about expenditures not revenue. You used softball and soccer to compare to K-State's women's basketball expenditures because actually comparing them to their peers wouldn't prove your point. I call you out on that and then you jump to revenue but again not comparing us to a peer school. I'm sure you compare K-State football revenues to OU revenues all of the time.

Also the athletic department hasn't brought Deb anything, donors built the BTF and women had to get space for title nine requirements. Our women's basketball team doesn't have better facilities than anyone else in this conference. Your point about spending money to be at the bottom would be valid if our women's program was perennially there, we aren't, she doesn't get a lifetime exemption but she hasn't done nearly enough wrong to get fired.

Yes I was talking about expenditures, then you brought up revenue.  MIR wrote: Deb is fine, our wbb revenue and attendance is decent 

No, our revenues are not decent, they are horrible, per the KSU 2013 NCAA Financial Report, WBB produced just $348K in revenue, on $3.114 million in expenses (not quite the same format as the EADA). 

The collective of our WBB facilities are better than other programs on the major conference D1 level.   Other programs don't have their very own practice court, sure, some do, some don't.   The BTF puts K-State WBB in the mix for the best facilities collectively and exactly equal in every way to the men's program at K-State. 

I don't like Deb, never have, probably never will, and when she's losing by 40 and headed to another bottom of the conference finish and K-State is losing millions . . there's plenty there to question.

Again dax there is a reason that you aren't comparing our revenue and expenditures to our true peer schools, I know why that is so we can drop the charade.

Our practice facility isn't better than most of our peers, its newer. Just like the men we were way behind when the BTF was built, that facility, and it is a beautiful facility, caught us up. We did nothing that makes anyone else in our conference say, "damn K-State just rendered our facility obsolete, we have to start over." I don't know for sure but I'm fairly confident that I've seen more of these facilities than you or pretty much anyone else posting on this board.

Our total AD operating revenue was nearly $70 million dollars (and that didn't include nearly $20 million in capital giving and revenue from the sale of investment vehicles).   You sound absolutely stupid, I have never said K-State has rendered any rivals facility obsolete.    I've been in K-State's facility, I've seen NC State's facility, I've seen Virginia Tech's facility, and I've been in East Carolina's brand new facility.   There's very little difference. 

You're just angry (as usual) that someone is calling out Deb for the lousy job she's doing running our WBB program. 
2013:
KU Total Expenses:  $3.391 million
K-State Total Expenses: $3.359 million
Oklahoma State Total Expenses: $2.25 million
Iowa State Total Expenses: $3.164 million

You can put the popcorn away. There is certainly a conversation to be had about Deb but dax isn't equipped to have it. The only thing he knows about the program is what he sees on box scores. He can't articulate why Deb isn't right for the program so he's doing what he does to dumb KU fans by pretending financial numbers mean something differently than what they say, as if I can't read.

The conversation is over because dax refuses to have a two sided conversation without being intellectually dishonest.

You keep bringing up the talking points, I provide the data, you then revert back to the same shtick.   Next thing you know you'll say ISU, OSU, and KU aren't "peers". 

The "right fit" is pure subjectivity, at some point objectivity has to kick in, and that starts with the results in the box score, and the standings, the trendline is down.

3 NCAAs, 1 WNIT in that span. I'm guessing that's absolutely fine for 90% of WCB. And would be fine for 70% of MCB.

Interesting if true.  Last year and this year just really shitty huh?

I guess I included 5 years previous to this one, so yes, 2 pretty poor years in a row.

But the best player she's had since ??? with the girl from Spain. :dunno:

I don't know if she is as unstable as Dax thinks but it is a fact that she has Franked a good number of players over the last few years for reasons unknown.  Those players have moved to other teams with good to great success so the Franking was not for a good cause IMO.

Just wrangle up all the great KSUWBB players give them all 100k and tell them win a Dr. Pepper you get an extra 100k. Every tourney win 5k. B12T champs 5k. Beat KU free chicken nuggets. Win a natty 200k bonus but then fire some because then we are paying our WBB staff too much.

Turnovers in the OT were main culprit for this collapse.  Got up by 6 pts. to start OT, statistics say the the team scoring first in OT has a 60% chance of winning - we scored the first six, WTF Deb.  Romero fouling out was the death knell.

No I don't think that happens very much, if it were the players choice that's different than the coach deciding that for her.

I agree about Shalee. If anybody in the WBB program bleeds purple, it's her. She would indeed energize the fan base and she's an outstanding recruiter. I'd like to see him roll the dice on her relatively short coaching career and put her in charge.

He does avoid paying out $125,000 in bonus on April 14, 2014.


If we are paying 600,000 for a women's coach, it better be someone cool like Doug Gottlieb.

I hope Currie doesn't lose a bunch of sleep flying around to hotel rooms in major metros to sign knee jerk contracts with historically loser coaches.

That would be really dumb.

He could avoid all that by hiring Lehning, even tho he'd be taking a chance on someone with only a few years' coaching experience. But no one says K-State WBB like Shalee.

Deb seems very polarizing. Not sure what to believe.

What to believe in what regard? Many of the things people don't like about Deb is born out of the Voepel article, some details of the article aren't exactly accurate, some are sensationalized, and others people don't remember correctly.

The firing is about wins and losses, but if what Stevesie posted is accurate I hope Currie considered that heavily because that isn't right.

whether to believe she should have been fired.  There wasn't a big push to get her canned, was there? Kinda aggressive by Currie. I'm fine with it, fwiw.

I've been on this board all season fighting this but the program wasn't trending well. I wouldn't say there was a big push but there were some unhappy people, couple that with the possibility of potential off the court issues and there you have it.

I was shocked he was this aggressive with it. There HAS to be something else behind it because Womens Basketball isn't going to make huge dollars anyway.

Being an Iowa State fan I'd hope you understand that women's basketball should be the #3 revenue producer for an athletic department of schools in states that have winter. Women's coaches get fired all of the time, they are expected to win too. KUs all-time winningest women's coach was also fired, if Fennely goes 10-26 in conference in a two year stretch he could get gassed too.

Pick your knuckles up off of the ground, sexist clown. People that throw Deb's salary around need to take like 10 rough ridin' minutes of reading and research to gather some actual context of her salary. She isn't close to being overpaid when you consider the other coaches in the conference and other high major coaches that have been at one place as long as she had. Thankfully Currie is smarter than you rough ridin' idiots and he understands its a pretty good idea to pay your coaches market value.

This is the same kind of BS you tried to pull last year.  You were wrong then and wrong now.

I'm not sure what is happening here but you are doing your thing where you become unreasonably unhinged so I'm gonna keep walking and not look you in the eye.

I will tell you that the 7.5 year old article you keep mentioning is still on the web and easy to find, I read an article earlier this evening that linked it. That chapel thing in the context you brought it up is an example of you not remembering the totality of the story. I will give you credit and not accuse you of intentionally lying because after all that article was written in 2006 & the person who spoke on record about it graduated 9 years ago.

If you want to do the song & dance about this, that's fine but I was very very close to the program back then close enough to know most of that stuff in the article before it was published. If you want to ignore all of that and just base everything off of an article written 7 years ago about stuff that happened between 8-12 years ago I'll leave you with this.

Quote
They had that option this year, that chapel is at a different time than pregame meal," Wecker said. "But at the same time, if you don't go, then what happens?"

What happened is that people who didn't want to go were told by coach not to go and they weren't kicked off of the team, a few of them stood with Wecker at the championship team reunion last month.

Quite frankly I don't give a crap if they article was from years ago, that wasn't my point main in this thread.  The point was a) I wish she was gone sooner, when it would have been a cleaner break, and b) she has been in a downward trend for a few years with no major accomplishments to speak of after having many great resources at her disposal. She arguably should have been gone last year.  I listed to your points about injuries to the front court/key players and a few other issues and reconsidered my position to "the one more year" camp.  Instead we are treated with another awful year building a trend which oscillates between mediocrity and terrible.

Yea, I agree completely. Based upon the postseason accolades, I'd have given her one more season as an athletic director, simply out of respect for the program she built. Maybe John Currie gave her an ultimatum at this time last year as well, but only those two would know that.

What would people who follow the program closely say Deb's biggest problem was? X's and O's, recruiting, getting effort out of players?

I personally kind of always thought she recruited too many Kansas girls and that she hit the lottery with oldhe, wecker, and kanhe and then kind of stuck with that local recruiting strategy, but that's just from looking at the roster and not knowing the girls they are actually pursuing. Thoughts?

Just personal opinion here, and as someone who hasn't really paid close attention since I was in school take this for what it's worth, but that's almost the opposite of the truth. I think one of the biggest problems has been not getting enough of the good Kansas players. There's been more than enough quality womens bball players come out of this state to create at least a solid backbone for a team. Obviously some will leave but it seems like for every Shalee she got there was at least 1 Tiffany Bias who got away.

Deb's problem, IMO, has been recruiting.  The last 3 or so years she has missed out big time.  There is no way you should field a team in the Big 12 w/out a girl over 6'0.  When Childs and Brown were Jr's (both were listed at 6'2"), they should have had recruited girls over 6'0", but got none.  Then we they were Sr's, Deb got none.  Well, guess what...they both graduated and you still had no girls on the roster 6'0".  That is full-out recruiting fail! 3 full recruiting classes w/ out a girl with height.

Now this year they landed 3 over 6'3".  I would prolly give that credit to Lehning, but I don't know.  But one of those girls never played, the other hardly played, and the Lewis girl will have a good future. A little late. So, the talking heads about giving her another year cause she has all of these frosh, well, that is just cause they didin't recruit w/ a squat the last 3 years.

You do roll the dice w/ this firing though, as I think a number of the recruits were very close to Lehning, including our best player, the point guard from Spain.  Lose her, and things will not get much better--short term...

ironically enough, recruiting; ironic because this freshman class is the best one she's had in over a decade. She actually doesn't take an abnormal amount of Kansas kids, I mean non revenue sports have to take more local kids than men's basketball because of budgets

$1.1 million spent on WBB coaching staff compensation in FY 2013.   That number likely went up this year.   

A $5 million dollar operating loss for WBB FY 2012/13 combined.

Currie probably thinks he needs to shrink that gap and didn't think that Deb would provide the neccessary energy to do that.

My take:  Status Quo was the way to go.

Stop being so dramatic man, the university was in no jeopardy with the chapel issue. Why are you so mad, dude? Someone, Kendra, turned Deb in to what is basically the ACLU for having chapel essentially at the same time as team meals. They told Weiser, he told Deb not to do that, she stopped, the end.

I'll give you two more facts about this; at the time women's basketball was not the only program that walked the line or crossed the line of "mandatory" chapel, there were multiple coaches asked to stop, some of these sports shared the same Chaplin. Also if you think that we were in any danger, whatever that means, the group that went to Weiser said they do this with other schools and public entities about 10 times a year, it isn't rare & like I said she wasn't the only coach at K-State doing it.

Deb's offense was fine, this was a talent issue. I've said this about the men and it holds true for the women too.

She's young no doubt but it isn't highly unusual for young coaches to get a shot, Dawn Staley started coaching at Temple while she was in the WNBA, I believe Jen Rizzoti did the same. Sherri Coale was 31 and her only coaching experience was 6 years at Norman High before she got the job at OU.

Hmmm. I know virtually nothing about WBB. But I want the ksu cats to be good at everything, so I vote we get a coach that makes us good.

Then you want Shalee.

dax, buddy, its over. We appreciate your dogged research but she's gone, her office is already cleaned out. Not sure why you feel the need to convince us that a fired person should be fired. Who do you like for candidates, may need to go a little deeper than just looking at schedule & results though.

Lenning.  I've seen people toss around the WSU coach.

Sorry for the snark, friends?

Jody Adams would be okay. She played for Pat Summit, won a natty. At WSU she won their first Valley championship for them and took them to their first NCAA tournament. I caution you all though about two things. First, she's very polarizing within the WSU athletic department, she's very tough and she has no problem getting rid of players. Honestly, she's like a non bible thumping Deb. Secondly, for people who didn't like Deb's salary, we would have to pay Jody nearly as much as we paid Deb, if not more.

I want Shalee but Jody would be better than an assistant coach from Maryland or Louisville.

Currie is fixing his dumbass contract that he gave to Deb in 2008.

$600,000 in salary for Deb in 2013-2014     ( for women's basketball)


He does avoid paying out $125,000 in bonus on April 14, 2014.


If we are paying 600,000 for a women's coach, it better be someone cool like Doug Gottlieb.

Pick your knuckles up off of the ground, sexist clown. People that throw Deb's salary around need to take like 10 rough ridin' minutes of reading and research to gather some actual context of her salary. She isn't close to being overpaid when you consider the other coaches in the conference and other high major coaches that have been at one place as long as she had. Thankfully Currie is smarter than you rough ridin' idiots and he understands its a pretty good idea to pay your coaches market value.

There is the 10 minutes of research.

I would calculate that 13,500 seats * $50/year= $675,000  in attendance revenue / year. 
I bet that is probably high considering how they try to sell Women's Basketball Season packages for $20 with a Men's season ticket.
In general, College Basketball Coaches are overpaid and only survive due to Football. In women's hoops it is an even worse situation than the men.

I think Currie made the right decision to move on from a Head Coach that had only been to the Sweet Sixteen once in 18 years. Get someone fresh and save a $1,000,000 over the next 4 years. 

In my opinion, we should be paying our Women's Hoops Coach Brad Hill or Suzie Fritz type money.

I really hate Deb for the religious pressure she put on players. She should have been fired years ago.

What an incredibly stupid thing to hate someone for.  To each his own though imo.

Uhhh not really. Hating her for being gay would be incredibly stupid.

Okie Doke.

Hate isn't the right word, but I do agree with ERiI. Religion, and how it is practiced, should be a personal choice. I don't want to pit this up, though. I'm all for hiring Shalee.

This needs to be a hire that instantly sells tickets and the only assistant who would do that is already here.

They call Joanne P. Mcallie Coach P? I thought that it was weird that whenever someone says her name, they say the P, calling her Coach P is bizarre.

Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: MakeItRain on March 10, 2014, 10:44:33 PM
2012-13 season

Expenditures $3.3 million
Revenue      $366,000

That may seem crazy but, for comparison, the numbers for all of the other sports combined, not counting football and mens & womens basketball

Expenditures $8.7 million
Revenues     $469,000
You can for the most part split the revenues into baseball and volleyball because it's reported by gender and those are really the only two other sports that generate any revenue at all.
Baseball revenues for 12-13 were approximately $292,422 and volleyball was $177,386

So baseball having its best year ever, by far had a revenue of nearly 33% of women's basketball that had a 5-13 conference record. Volleyball made the NCAA tournament in 2012 and brought in nearly 66% less than women's basketball.

This, andrew von dumbass, is why you don't pay a women's basketball coach like you pay a baseball or volleyball coach.

Post by: AndrewVonLintel on March 10, 2014, 11:58:03 PM
Option A:

Pay a new Women's Basketball Coach $600,000 as part of a 3.3 million dollar budget. If we are lucky this improves revenue from 300,000 to 600,000.   Net we lose $2.7 million  on the operation.

Option B: Pay a new Women's Basketball Coach $200,000. Lets say that revenue stays the same and we bring in $300,000. The New Women's Basketball Budget is 2.9 million because you saved $400,000 on head coach salary.  Net we lose $2.6 million dollars

Option C: Pay a new Women's Basketball Coach $200,000. Budget is 2.9 million again but this time you get an increase in revenue from 300,000 to 600,000.   Net we lose $2.3 million.

I think it is much better to try for option C and accidentally get B.  The only way it makes sense to spend a lot of money is if we hire away a coach from a big time program. Otherwise you are starting out with an unproven assistant type or upgrading a lower level head coach and why should we pay more for that?

Last year Baseball had $218K in Revenue.  WBB $348K.  Baseball's expenses were half of WBB expenses.   

Source-KSU 2013 NCAA Revenue and Expense Report.

Baseball could produce more if they consistently make the post season and finish towards the top of conference standings.

If current trend holds, TFS probably needs to be expanded.    Baseball also has a ton of exposure potential.  Make the NCAA postseason and stay awhile means lots of ESPN air time.

Because you need to hire coaches, for any sport, at the going rate. Why do you continue to ignore what the market rate for coaches is? Honest question, are you grasping the concept of paying what the market dictates? Do you really want K-State to be known as the school who low balls coaches over $200,000 on a $60 million dollar budget?

Also what your projections conveniently ignore is what happens if the revenues plummet because the athletic director hires a coach for $200,000 because some of his fans don't understand basic economics. Does, you get what you pay for mean anything to you? We're hiring a coach that needs to produce revenues for the 3rd highest revenue producing sport on campus, we aren't shopping for canned goods at Aldi. Sheesh.

I'm sure you're aware that wbb expenditures can't be cut and baseball expenditures will increase with increases in revenue. Obviously we both would love for both to produce more money. If they both sports produce maximum revenue women's basketball will still out perform baseball for all schools outside of the SEC and ACC; see Nebraska where their wbb team had the same amount of revenue than all of their non football/basketball mens sports.

There's no way this is accurate but Wichita State reports their revenue as follows

Women's Basketball $1.7 million
Baseball approx. $4 million
Volleyball approx. $3 million

They're clearly hiding men's basketball and baseball revenues and expenditures within their women's numbers.

i'm serious.  i understand the value of having non-revenue sports, and the opportunities it creates for many young people and expanding the brand of the university.  i'm ok with that trade off (even though i make joke about dropping everything but fb and mbb).  but a head coach of those sports should have a salary somewhat equal to your average teacher/professor at that university.

getting paid 600k and only bringing in 366k is just irresponsible though, use that extra 500k and spend it on the athletes.

Again it isn't what you or anyone else thinks what they should be making, the market dictates the value. An individual athletic director cannot lower the value of the contract. You want non revenue coaches to make $85,000, you better make a pact between all athletic directors to keep the salaries that low. However, I'm sure you're aware COLUSION is very illegal. There is a free market so people who want the best coaches will pay them truckloads of money so that money trickles down to everyone. Are you advocating that we ditch capitalism for womens basketball coaches?

The logic that wbb coaches should be paid like professors is asinine. Even at $300,000, there aren't professors bringing that amount of money into the university. Did you see what I listed for the revenues of some of the other programs? Find me the professor that brings in $1 million a year into the university.

i had a part typed out that since market values is what it is, that we should pay that, but figured you were smart enough to know i was talking about the system as a whole and not ksu specifically so i deleted it.

i'm not talking about COLUSION or anything, calm down.  i'm saying my market value view of these coaches is around 100k.  if you started coaching the basketball team tomorrow for 100k, it doesn't even matter how much revenue drops off because the school already saved more than the team was "worth" in the first place.  the animal makes like $350k right?  do you think a women's basketball coach is worth twice the value of the university president?  that's absurd.

football and mbb salaries are inflated too (in my opinion), but at least they bring huge amounts of value.

I take issue with "tons" but yes professors bring in grants to their departments and the university. Point is an average women's basketball coach has the potential to and should bring more attention and money to a university than a professor. Comparing their financial impact is silly.

I'll be curious to see the 13-14 revenues/expenses for baseball and WBB. Baseball was coming off of a pretty down year in 2012, so season ticket sales, hype, etc. were not very high. I bet that gap closed considerably this year...

Also, there are only a couple of baseball programs that break even each year. There are not a lot of WBB who manage this (43 in 2012), but there several more than baseball.
http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/ksu/genrel/auto_pdf/2013-14/misc_non_event/FY13AuditorReportFinancials.pdf

That is for FY12-13. I'm referring to FY13-14 that doesn't end until June 30.

Either way, those sheets suggest the difference in revenue produced by WBB and BSB last year is the $43K WBB charged for parking...

I'd guess that baseball and women's basketball revenues will be nearly identical if not more for baseball when the 13-14 numbers are released. The season ticket revenue for baseball, I'd guess is at a record high but wbb ticket revenue is essentially at its floor.

market value or not, paying a head coach twice the potential revenue is really ridiculous.  why are women's basketball (and i'm sure other non-revenue sports) head coaching salaries so inflated?  seems like a $60-80k job at most

Honestly, why would you dumb down this conversation even more than it already is? Do you actually want an answer to this question, certainly you're smarter than that? Right?

i'm serious.  i understand the value of having non-revenue sports, and the opportunities it creates for many young people and expanding the brand of the university.  i'm ok with that trade off (even though i make joke about dropping everything but fb and mbb).  but a head coach of those sports should have a salary somewhat equal to your average teacher/professor at that university.

getting paid 600k and only bringing in 366k is just irresponsible though, use that extra 500k and spend it on the athletes.

Again it isn't what you or anyone else thinks what they should be making, the market dictates the value. An individual athletic director cannot lower the value of the contract. You want non revenue coaches to make $85,000, you better make a pact between all athletic directors to keep the salaries that low. However, I'm sure you're aware COLUSION is very illegal. There is a free market so people who want the best coaches will pay them truckloads of money so that money trickles down to everyone. Are you advocating that we ditch capitalism for womens basketball coaches?

The logic that wbb coaches should be paid like professors is asinine. Even at $300,000, there aren't professors bringing that amount of money into the university. Did you see what I listed for the revenues of some of the other programs? Find me the professor that brings in $1 million a year into the university.

Do you think Deb's salary played a role in her termination?  I think it got too high and she wasn't winning enough to justify it.

If she had been sitting at 200k i think she is still coaching at KSU.  But, to your point, 2 time conference champs demand more.

No I don't think her salary played a role at all, even if she made $30,000 the revenues are still plummeting. We can't afford to keep bleeding revenue. If Deb would have come back for 14-15 I think the team would be much better but season ticket sales would drop again.

Bill Annan was my typing teacher at Seaman High School and the boys assistant coach.  You won't find a nicer guy.  I remember like 2 years ago I was watching the girls play and they were playing OSu, and they showed the bench and I saw Bill, and I screamed at the wife, hey that was my typing teaching in HS.  I had no idea he had entered the college ranks.

All I can tell from his resume is that he has steadily moved up in program that has been going in the right direction since he got there. His accomplishments at hs level are also solid. I have no reason to believe he would be better or worse than Lehning. I know little to nothing valuable about either one. I thought you were referring to something specific that the KSU program needed. I was just curious what that was.

great name 'sclams. I don't know why you wouldn't just hire Shalee if you would hire Jackson though, she doesn't have enough of an experience edge over Shalee to combat the people who would be pissed and call this a Ron Prince type hire. This needs to be a hire that instantly sells tickets and the only assistant who would do that is already here.

They call Joanne P. Mcallie Coach P? I thought that it was weird that whenever someone says her name, they say the P, calling her Coach P is bizarre.

ya the p is for her maiden name palombo

the lineage jackson brings in is tough to beat + shalee might be too young and too connected to deb in currie's eyes...just speculating

The program needs someone who will come in here and sell tickets, energize the fan base. For women's basketball making money is more important than winning, in the long term they go hand in hand. I don't think we can rebuild with a high school coach. I don't think his resume indicates that he is ready for this job yet. Shalee is in the same boat but we'd sell a lot of tickets and the fans would give her a lot of room to grow within the job.

Now I'm all in with Shalee or Jody Adams.

I'd consider Annan more than a high school coach. He's Assoc
Head Coach of a top 20 team. Otherwise I fully agree with you. Adams seems like the best possibility. I wouldn't be upset with either Lehning or Annan.

3rd, a Shalee hire would be risky.  She has only been on staff for a short while, but has proven to be a heck of a recruiter.  I would love her to stay on staff, even as an assistant, to "keep the peace" and continue bringing girls in.  JDK if she is ready for the HC gig.  But, since most of this thread has turned into dollars and revenue's, then I guess we could get her cheap.....

More Financial talk about our three candidates that Currie will ignore.

1. Adams original 2008 contract had a base salary of $160,000 which was then upgraded to $175,000 in 2010. lot of little bonuses were added that I don't care about.

http://media.kansas.com/smedia/2013/03/15/15/09/153kYf.So.80.pdf

If Adams were to be hired away from Wichita State, I would be comfortable paying her $250,000 (with $30,000 bonus for every NCAA tournament win)

2.  If we were to hire an Assistant as the new head coach (Shalee Lehning), I would prefer $150,000 (with $30,000 bonus for every NCAA tournament win).

Would Shalee take the job for that?  I bet she would. The true Women's basketball fans would be happy and ticket sales would go up based on name recognition and Deb Patterson Fatigue wearing off.

3.  If we were to hire Geno Auriemma, I would be comfortable paying $2,000,000.  I realize that it would be worth it in publicity to steal a hall of fame coach away from someone and we would recoup some of the cash in tickets and TV money. Essentially it would be an expensive but fantastic commercial for K-State.

If anyone lives in the Hutchinson area or follows NJCAA teams in the state of Kansas, Hutchinson Community College coach John Ontjes should be at least interviewed for the job. He has an undefeated #3 team right now. He played college basketball at Oklahoma and averaged 10.5 ppg in 2 years there. Also with a good team this year, could set up a better recruiting class for the women at least for the next two years.

Is this a damn joke? JFC, why do you guys keep advocating for these terrible candidates? Would you want the men to hire a freaking community college coach? Let WSU hire him after we take Jodi Adams. From the Jayhawk Conference to a high major college basketball program with a devoted fan following and very good history, I mean sheesh guys.  Let's hire Troy Morrill or whatever to replace LHC LHC Bill Snyder too.

Uh, you're the one wanting to organize a rally to hire a 27 year old who's only experience beyond moonlighting between wnba seasons is like 2 years as the second assistant on a losing team.

I don't mean to say that Lehning would be a bad hire or that anyone else should be hired. I'd be pissed if Troy Morill was hired to replace Snyder. I'd also be pissed if Blake Seiler were hired to replace Snyder, which would be equivalent to Lehning IMO.

Granted it depends on the way it is phrased, I don't think there is anything sexist about wanting a good looking coach. To imply that as a guy I can't want a good looking female coach is absurd. Talking about how dreamy our men's players are is nbd, but if you want an attractive female coach you are a sexist pig? give me a rough ridin' break. I want everyone associated with KSU to be good looking.

Hahahah no not at all. I just think it is possible to want us to have an attractive head coach for the women's basketball team and it not be sexist. If Gottleib looked like Weber, he wouldn't have gotten a rally outside of Bramlage. I think women have come far enough to not be treated with kid gloves. That it is possible to appreciate a woman for her beauty and also respect her ability to be badass at what she does. Yes, you will have your fans that are in the stands solely to fantasize about the players, coaches, (just as their are female fans of men's sports that find the players attractive, desirable, worth fantasizing over) making crap ass remarks and they should be rebuked for doing so fore they are gross and sexist. It is human nature to gravitate towards beauty, I don't think that is inherently wrong or shameful to recognize and admit that.

The coach's Mitsubishi sports-utility rental was stopped when a Newton, Kan., police officer saw Mittie swerving and turning his headlights on and off while heading south on Interstate 135. He was arrested at 3:50 a.m. and released at 10:10 a.m.

Mittie, 37, was detained in the Harvey County Detention Center for investigation of DUI early Wednesday morning and was released on a $1,000 bond, Harvey County deputy Keith Blackwood said Wednesday.

The coach's Mitsubishi sports-utility rental was stopped when a Newton, Kan., police officer saw Mittie swerving and turning his headlights on and off while heading south on Interstate 135. He was arrested at 3:50 a.m. and released at 10:10 a.m.

JFC, Currie tries so damn hard with these out of the box hires. I never thought of him, I'm not sure who did. I don't think it's ever a good look to hire a coach from a major conference that isn't playing in the postseason. I'm going to assume that Jody Adams said no, although I have no idea why she would.

The in conference hire is interesting, whomever TCU hires better not kick our ass. If TCU hires Jody Adams and she beats us I'd encourage everyone to do something drastic.

I don't get what Currie is doing with his hiring. At the time of hire Weber and Mittie were both relatively high risk and low reward but the floor for these guys aren't very low either, it's like trying very hard to accomplish meh.

He's been a pretty decent ball coach.  The rough transition to the Big 12 was more because all he had at hand was tools to compete at the Mountain West level.  Now he has the tools to compete at a Big 12 and National Level with an elite basketball facility to play with.  It's a solid hire.  I mean the Wichita State ball coach would've maybe generated more excitement, but this guy has has a winning pedigree.  Besides Geno is the best women's coach of all time(no, not Pat Summit lulz), and he's obviously a dude.  Get Shalee to stick around it remains a very good hire.

If you don't care get the eff out, no one solicited your opinion. I've never understood why certain guys feel the need to tell people they don't like women's basketball without being asked, what are you trying to prove? Even people that don't like women's basketball wouldn't find this post particularly edgy or funny, why, most people don't like women's basketball.

exactly, pretty decent, meh :blank: I will say after looking at his resume it appears that he was TCU's Jody Adams, I am a little troubled by him seeming as if he's plateaued. His post season resume is very similar to Deb's, don't be fooled by that dumb post season stat that K-State is throwing out there. TCU has more than a few NITs in that run and very few NCAA wins. His best team was his 04-05 team. TCU had Michael Irvin's niece on that team she's like 6'7" and was just a couple of blocks from breaking the NCAA single season record. That team won 1 game in the tournament and they played that pod at home. At least Deb went to the sweet 16.

I also wholeheartedly reject that point about them transitioning from the Mountain West. As we know TCU played in like 39 conferences in 7 years, but they were not dominant at all, ever. Jody and WSU were 30-6 against the valley the last 2 seasons with 4 titles.

Debs class from last year is the only decent class in the last 5 years, the key for him is to keep that class in place and get some popular assistants to stick around.

Eh, I still think it will work out well.  All of those other conferences were all pretty Mountain Westy too, so the fact that he moved from a lesser conference where you usually are going to draw lesser recruits to a Big 12 environment is still there.  Maybe they weren't ever dominant, but when has Deb ever been truly dominant with this Cats team? She's had some nice seasons, but nothing truly remarkable. He went to 9 NCAA tourneys in 15 years at TCU, a school where it is verifiably, much harder to get into the dance than it is in the Big 12 just based on the smaller selection those conferences usually get.  That's a pretty good track record and the development from a horrid inaugural Big 12 campaign to this season shows he can go at this level.  He keeps girls from transferring out and keeps Shalee around then it will work out pretty well.

Money shouldn't be the issue here.  I'm not very knowledgeable about WBB, but given the fact that it's probably tied with baseball as the most popular non-revenue sport, you can afford to put the money out there even if you're going to operate at a loss.  I mean, don't operate at a gigantic loss, but do your best to field a winning team like you do in every other sport.  I mean, hell, we built a state-of-the-art practice facility where every single thing is equal between the women and men, so you're already pot committed.  Dropping $500k plus isn't crazy, especially if you're a Top 15 program, historically.

When we fired Deb, I texted a friend and said that Currie was probably thinking he could get the same results for half the price.  Looks like, on paper, I was probably dead on in how Currie was thinking.

His first couple of years in the big twelve has been an adjustment, but that should be expected coming into a major WBB conference.  Lets see, Deb has been in the big 8/12 for 18 years, and how has her last 2 years been?

I don't know what Deb's escalations were, but Mittie is getting a $25k bump every year.  That 40% savings you speak of may decrease.  So, he will be at $500k at the end of the deal.

Now that I've read a little more, this doesn't feel like money as much as Currie using the Weber method of hiring guy that will have similar success for a similar price.  The difference is that the guy fits more of what Currie wants and has as his vision of a model intercollegiate whatever.

I don't have an issue with Mittie.  He seems like the aw shucks kind of guy our fans will eat up.  My observation is that WBB fans are more local than national, so hiring a guy from Blue Springs with a wife from Junk Town fits that mold of a coach that will be able to sell that connection to the local base.

I don't know how I feel about hiring a guy instead of a woman.  Men can get coaching jobs coaching MBB, but that isn't true for women.  I'd rather women coach WBB for that reason, as it feels like men steal their opportunities there, but that's a preference and not a strong opinion.

If he had $ in mind when he fired Deb I'd sincerely hope he would heavily weigh revenue producing impact over the coaches salary. This hire makes me think he wasn't thinking about money because this certainly won't make a massive splash with season ticket sales in the short term.

Well yeah, that isn't surprising at all. There are people who also have tickets who were very upset at Deb being fired. There is no guarantee the people who have up their tickets will come back just as it's entirely possible that people will drop because Deb was fired or Mittie was hired.

My point is that if this was revenue driven, it clearly wasn't, there are available candidates that would have sold a hell of a lot more tickets for the '14-'15 season. It isn't a very controversial or earth shattering stance at all.

MIR, you need to relax.....

on paper, he may have the same credentials as Deb, but at a savings of 40%........so, that seems like a good business move to me. His first couple of years in the big twelve has been an adjustment, but that should be expected coming into a major WBB conference.  Lets see, Deb has been in the big 8/12 for 18 years, and how has her last 2 years been?

I hope he keeps Shalee on board though

Pretty had to think that having a really good baseball program that goes deep into the post season isn't worth more notoriety than a WBB program.

Baseball postseason is nearly a months worth of exposure on ESPN.  Most of the time in prime time during a period when the MLB is heading into the summer death march and hockey and the NBA are ending or done by the CWS.

WBB postseason is an afterthought for most.  WBB on the national stage is dominated by 4 to 6 programs, and the top 1 or 2 teams regularly destroy teams that are ranked in the Top 15.

We'll look at that.  While the men's NCAA Tourney and obviously the MF4 features one nip/tuck game after another.   The first game of WFF features one team up 17 at half. 

But by all means let's keep spending millions on this sport.

I've been waiting for this grooved fastball for seemingly a decade, gonna feel great to smash this one 520 ft.


The women's NCAA tournament is 32 years old. At that point in men's tournament history, 1972, the NCAA was less competitive than the women's is now. You were like 30 years old in '72 which may account for the poor memory. In 1972 UCLA were in the processing of winning 7 straight NCAA Championships and 10 out of 12, and they started their 88 game winning streak. Thankfully in 1972 we didn't have a vocal group of sexists oddly wanting to kill a sport because it wasn't as competitive as they like even though they had the option of oh...not watch something they don't like.

Women's college basketball isn't going anywhere, there are federal laws ensuring this. I'm going to be so happy to see this sport continue to grow, I love it. I'll maintain my sanity to continuing to not watch or care about sports I don't like. You should try it, it feels great to be unburdened by worrying about why rugby gets to be on tv.

I knew that's exactly what you were going to say, so pathetically typical.  Sad. 

It might literally be the biggest strawman ever relative to college athletic discussion to compare the current period of college athletics to anything in college athletics 30 or 40 years ago and beyond.   

When John Wooden started winning his championships at UCLA there were literally schools that didn't allow African-American players to be on their basketball team, in some cases, they barely even allowed African Americans and other people of color into their institutions.   

The money spent on athletics, that being the ENTIRE athletic department at the vast majority of schools . . . well let's just say that would have looked upon what a school like K-State spent on women's basketball last year in absolute awe (and for the 10 plus years before that).   John Wooden probably barely made a million dollars from UCLA over the course of 3 plus decades of coaching there.   Deb Patterson for example was paid over $3 million in her last 5 years. 

The NCAA Women's Tournament was propelled into venues, coverage and notoriety on a rocket ship, literally riding the coat tails of the modern men's National Tourney.    It took decades for the men's national tournament to get to the level the women's tourney is now and has been for well over a decade.  Back during in the 50's, 60's and 70's, college basketball and the national tourney were niche sport that was propelled forward by the growing number of people who attended college, but still dwarfed by college football and pro sports.   During that time there was a competing national tournament that was on some levels even bigger than the NCAA men's tourney. 

The differences between then and now make a list a mile long . . . but leave it to MIR. 

I didn't say drop the sport at K-State or anywhere, so why the eff you would even bring up the idiotic throw away of federal law?  Thanks Captain Obvious.   

It's just time to explore other sports opportunities for women at K-State, and increase the budgets for the other existing women's sports at the expense of women's basketball at K-State.   Hopefully the $300K that K-State is saving on the new basketball coaches salary is going to be promptly moved to volleyball and women's track.

Your argument is essentially more money is spent on women's college basketball now than was spent on men's basketball in 1972. My reply is, no crap. I'm not sure what how much money is spent on has to do with giving the sport time to develop. The premise of your first post was a ridiculous, flimsy mess to start with. Why even try to make a larger point about a team having a 17 point lead at halftime at the final four; as if there are never blow outs at the men's final four? Also not sure what the final four has to do with what K-State spends on basketball and volleyball. I'm interested in this Dax scale of spending as it relates to your enjoyment though and how it works as far as sports are funded. If Notre Dame and UConn play a game that's decided by a buzzer beater will you call ESPN and request a bonus for those girls playing a men's sport?

It's hard to discuss this topic with someone who actually tries to compare college athletics from around 1995 and beyond with college athletics from the 60's and 70's.  I brought up money as being one of many huge differences, did you not see where I said the list of differences from then to now is substantial??  (of course you didn't)

I look at it from a perspective of what's more likely to get K-State that elusive national title and I see a better opportunity to do that coming from several other women's sports.  It's not going to happen with WBB.    Again, taking the $300K saved from Deb's ridiculous contract and moving it to other women's sports is an excellent start, they can use it.   But that's probably not going to happen.   It's going to take less to move the needle substantially in other sports than it is with women's hoops.

Look, you're just pissed that women's college basketball, despite having a meteoric rise in terms of notoriety on the coat tails of the expansion of proliferation of the men's game is still pretty much solely dominated by about 2 to 4 programs.   

There wasn't a hell of a lot of difference between 1972 and the mid to late 60's, so get real.   You used poor examples from a by gone era when everyone with a clue (so that would exclude perpetually angry MIR) knows that there's been a massive series of paradigm shifts in college athletics that makes comparisons of the current era we're in, to those days idiotic and absurd.

I mean don't you have kids older than NCAA women's basketball? In the early 90s there were places in Oklahoma and Iowa that still played 6 on 6 girls basketball in high school. If course there is going to be an inequity of talent distribution. I'm sitting here watching UConn and Kentucky playing in the men's championship game the men's tournament is 76 years old and the same damn 5 teams seem to be the only schools who win, why are we pouring so much money into men's basketball for this?

I just hope someone other than Uconn wins it though, this is absurd...plus Uconn's players are woof

I didn't say a damn thing about the 50s or 60s. You listed two differences and the other difference was absurd so I chose to ignore it. In 1972 there were not major college basketball schools that didn't allow black players. It also speaks to my point about college basketball at the time still developing. Do you have any more differences?

Also the other women's sports you speak of have less parity than women's basketball. Volleyball? You serious? Volleyball is far and away my favorite women's sport but we don't have a better shot at winning a volleyball championship than basketball, that's preposterous.

Give volleyball the Women's b-ball budget and I'll take my chances.

Look, you're just pissed that women's college basketball, despite having a meteoric rise in terms of notoriety on the coat tails of the expansion of proliferation of the men's game is still pretty much solely dominated by about 2 to 4 programs.   

There wasn't a hell of a lot of difference between 1972 and the mid to late 60's, so get real.   You used poor examples from a by gone era when everyone with a clue (so that would exclude perpetually angry MIR) knows that there's been a massive series of paradigm shifts in college athletics that makes comparisons of the current era we're in, to those days idiotic and absurd.

I'm pissed? Okay if you insist. Not sure why I would be pissed about it considering it was my point. Also not sure why you keep talking about the amount of money that is in college basketball, what does that have to do with how the game is being developed?

The difference is that unlike many games on the women's side, most of the men's games go down to the wire.   

LOL, at having kids older tham NCAA women's basketball, I'm not that much older than many of the people who post on this board.   I'll pull a reverse MIR here and claim age bigotry, never expected that from you MIR, kind of shocked. 

Time to have a paradigm shift at K-State,  de-emphasize funding of women's basketball and move the money to other women's sports and make a run at national prominence with them.   It's not going to happen in women's hoops at K-State.  Just my opinion.

First of all, link? I think the men's margin of victory is lower too, I have not once claimed otherwise. That being said, I'm not sure the difference is large enough where you can claim that most men's games go to the wire and women don't. That's a factual statement that has not been vetted.

The problem with your redistributing wbb money to say volleyball, is that volleyball does not come close to have the revenue producing power that basketball does, it also won't give us a significantly higher chance at winning a nc.

I don't know what Curries agenda ( or if there is an agenda) is regarding Deb or WBB in general;  but it seems hard to imagine he canned her for cost savings alone when the department he runs is showing surplus "earnings".  I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE ONE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP but how does one identify which Olympic sport to feed that might have such a result?  Track maybe  :dunno: seems KU won the championship a year ago with basically one outstanding world class runner and a nice supporting cast.

30 plus years into the women's National Tourney, 2 undefeated teams and a  :zzz: .   

All women's sports lose money hand over fist.   For example, I went back and looked at the 2010-11 season when the K-State women finished third in the conference.   They still posted a net loss of nearly $2 million.   Their revenue was only about $40-$50K more than the last couple of years when they finished at the bottom.

Let's go back to '07-'08 a Big 12 Championship Season.  Women's hoops at K-State posted a net loss of nearly $1.4 million.   

Women's hoops at K-State is likely always going to post multi-million dollar losses, time to re-shift the focus and go for the trophies in another women's sport.   Saying the other sports aren't going to do any better and aren't going to generate as much revenue is utterly irrelevant to me because the women's sports at K-State will lose millions no matter how good they are.  WBB @ K-State losses millions during the very best of times.   

Time to give another women's sport a better shot, and for one that has always had the opportunity to take bigger steps on the national stage but couldn't because of lack of funding.   That will likely require a more aggressive recruiting process, or a new coach.   The current coach is quite good at coaching, but not so good at recruiting.

Romero seeks transfer from K-State
(http://peachstatebasketball.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Leticia-Romero.jpg)(http://media.kansas.com/smedia/2013/08/29/11/45/1pwUWg.SlMa.80.jpeg)
Athletic Department says, 'No Way!'

Quote
“I think I have the right to transfer, if (K-State) has the right to change what I came for — the coaching staff,” said Romero, who led the Wildcats in points (14.2), rebounds (5.8) and assists (5.0) per game last season.

Romero’s transfer, however, won’t be easy. According to Romero, K-State rejected her initial request for a release, which would have allowed her to transfer to another school and sit out a year while under a new scholarship.

It is K-State’s athletic department policy to not grant release requests, “except for the most compelling of circumstances which place an undue burden on the student athlete.”

Agreed, MIR, about these commitments. Players gravitate almost exclusively to the coaches. (Rudy Ruettiger is the exception to the rule--he would have walked on at ND (yes, no scholarship) even if Ron Prince was the coach. And I suspect that Shalee would have come to KSU without regard to who the coaches were).

That's my personal problem with a majority of student athletes.

When I was being recruited for football (SPOILER, true story), I was having a conversation with some players on the team. Nice guys, they asked me how I liked the visit. I responded with the obvious "Like the campus, the people" and what not. Then I mentioned how I liked the coaching staff. Dude said that I shouldn't commit to play based no that because  you don't know whose going to be there next year, or the year after that. And if changes come, then your either going to be stuck in the same situation as Romero, or you are going miserable playing somewhere you don't want to.

Basically, someone should commit based on things that wont change or that can only improve, i.e. facilities, the fans, etc.

I think a lot of athletes are dumb imo. Crap like this happens.

How could they not commit to these coaches when it is the coaches who develop relationships with the players and the player's patents? The entire system and process is designed for the players to first and foremost consider the coaches who recruit them.

I think this situation would be difficult for anyone in any walk of life. It could be that Deb is tired of running the show so in her mind this is okay because she can be around the game without wearing all of the pressure, but I'm highly skeptical. Pretty surprising that all four coaches and the AD agreed to this.

So...it's now officially official that Kamie has put the band back together at Northern Colorado, with Shalee as her Associate Head Coach and Moylan and Patterson as assistants. Deb will now be subordinate in rank to two coaches who worked for her. Should make for an interesting workplace dynamic.

That is going to eventually blow up.

Likely. Very likely.

I think this situation would be difficult for anyone in any walk of life. It could be that Deb is tired of running the show so in her mind this is okay because she can be around the game without wearing all of the pressure, but I'm highly skeptical. Pretty surprising that all four coaches and the AD agreed to this.
Deb and kim aside, I'm a little surprised everyone else went there too. You would have thought shalee could have at least gotten an assistant job at a bigger school :dunno:
it's almost like they all agreed "ok whoever gets a head coaching job first has to hire everybody else on as assistants"

I wonder what Deb and co.'s reputation is like in the coaching brother/sister hood?

No we don't. Also there is that old adage about when you hire a new coach you hire their opposite, well I'm not sure we did that Mittie may be even more relentless than Deb was in practice. He seems like a good dude but he has a permanent case of the redass on the court during practice.

I was unhappy with Deb getting canned but Mittie appears to be a very good hire. He's been a consistent winner, that has to count for something.

I don't know about all of that. I do know that he seems nutso about details, minor tiny details. Its great for an insider but I wonder how much it grates on players during the long haul.

Ha! I was at this game and almost forgot about this. During timeouts they would drop those Hunger Games packages from the rafters. During a particular timeout, again, they dropped some packages. Well, one of them caught a draft of wind and began floating slowly towards the court as play resumed. It was probably 35 feet above the court as play moved to the opposite basket with the 'chute drifting over the court and coming down. Then it took a nose-dive, again during play, and some woman in the front row tried to grab it and then chased it onto the court. She tried to grab it, but couldn't as play started coming back to the near-side goal.

The woman freaked out and scampered across the court and some manager or assistant coach darted out and grabbed the thing just before it hit the ground and the players came back down court. Mittie was red as hell when all of this was going on.

Both sisters were at the cats' game yesterday in cat gear.  Sat behind the bench.

Pretty huge development. On the negative side, they seem to be pretty Spradling/ Frankamp like with regard to their dad. On the positive side they're both very good. It'll be interesting to see what happens with the lineup if they both come on. Shaelyn Martin, a freshman out of Salina is a point-forward type player as well. Who knows where the minutes will go.

The Page sisters are very skilled and very polished, but I don't think either of them are the athlete that Martin is. Martin is impressive.

I was pretty surprised when Patterson didn't really seem to go after these two, but I've heard something about a falling out between Dad and Deb.

Meeks and Nini are definitely good and will only get better. Kendred and Lewis were both serviceable last year, but their improvement this season is outstanding. I like this team a lot.

The Page sisters were at the game and behind the KSU bench again tonight, fwiw. Their dad/coach was with them during the first half, don't know where he went for the second.

Agree completely. They have more energy than Deb's last couple of teams. Lewis was overmatched for the most part, and the Cats didn't get a lot of great offensive looks. Mulkey has, as usual, a high caliber team.

These sisters are indeed highly rated. Also am hearing they have high opinions of themselves (which can be good or bad). I understand this will be a good test of Mittie's ability to manage egos, and also to manage the expectations and influence of their father (their Wamego high school coach). Rumors out of Nub country imply that Kaylee transferred because she and/or her father felt she wasn't playing enough as a frosh. (Nubs gave her a release and also released Lanie, a WHS senior, from her LOI). Guess we'll wait and see, but I hope for the best.

Yes they are both forwards who can shoot and are freak athletes. Also don't be too freaked out about Kaylee not playing at Nebraska, they are stacked. In Lanie's class they got 3 top 100 players, 2 from NEKS. At least Deb was a finalist for these girls. Bonnie didn't have a shot, Lanie even had Tech as her 3rd finalist and they just tonight broke a 25 game Big 12 losing streak. Bonnie should have been getting anyone out of this state she wants but she is :flush: There are and always have been good girls players in Kansas and Bonnie has not done well here. If Mittie can do well in Kansas and keep using his Texas ties we'll be fine.

Both sisters were at the cats' game yesterday in cat gear.  Sat behind the bench.

Pretty huge development. On the negative side, they seem to be pretty Spradling/ Frankamp like with regard to their dad. On the positive side they're both very good. It'll be interesting to see what happens with the lineup if they both come on. Shaelyn Martin, a freshman out of Salina is a point-forward type player as well. Who knows where the minutes will go.

The Page sisters are very skilled and very polished, but I don't think either of them are the athlete that Martin is. Martin is impressive.

I was pretty surprised when Patterson didn't really seem to go after these two, but I've heard something about a falling out between Dad and Deb.

I've seen them play quite a bit. They have good handles, and are very skilled, but I didn't see them as outstanding athletes even at the 4A high school level. I'm not trying to under-sell them either. They definitely stood out as players, but compared to people like Ohlde, Wecker and even Anne Weese, from Sacred Heart in Salina who went to Notre Dame, their athleticism didn't wow me. Bishop-Meige blasted them in the title game last year and the athletic difference was palpable.

I honestly think its because we've played WCBB and 5 on 5 at the prep level for longer than most. Both KU and KSU have very good histories going way back and I think that has helped develop good girls basketball in the state, similar to volleyball in Nebraska & wrestling in Iowa. Just an incredibly unscientific theory I've long held.

MIR,

I liked what I saw out of the team at the game tonight. It IS the only game I've seen all year. Lots of height across the board and youth. I think come senior year this team can really do things. What do you think?

Also, is the staying in a zone when getting murdered by threes a Mittie thing or a wbb thing? ISU had nothing approaching a post game but still we packed it in with a zone. Some quick passing and bam another three. It was disheartening to watch. By my eyes it was a 2-3, but I'm also a dummy.

Thank you for your insight,

SdK.

Also anyone else familiar with the team and what I said, feel free to interject.
Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: MakeItRain on January 17, 2015, 11:14:34 PM
Staying in the zone is a Mittie thing. He plays the 2-3 as a primary defense like the Baylor and Syracuse men. He does not have the team to run it the way he wants though, we aren't long and athletic enough. Skilled teams will kill us. ISU was able to get the ball right in the middle of the zone and that absolutely kills you, especially with a team like ISU who likes to spread you and hit threes. Playing a 3-2 could have helped with that some but its obvious that we have not worked on that. To make matters worse is tha when we finally went man it was obvious we hadn't worked on that either because we had the worst man principles I've ever seen in a D1 game, men or women.

Lewis and Martin are the only players I see fitting in the long term plans of this team. But even with Martin and Lewis I'll be interested in seeing what their role will be when the sisters come. If all four of them start at the 2, 3, 4, and 5 we'll be longer and more athletic than we've been since the big 4. I thought we'd see more of Jones, Sheble, and Young but they really haven't played at all.

Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: bones129 on January 17, 2015, 11:23:12 PM
Lewis is much improved from last season. Still, throughout this season, she is occasionally too hesitant to go to the hoop when she has good opportunities, and at times gets intimidated under the bucket. Again, however, she's much better than she was last season and will only get better.

Martin shows degrees of savvy and intelligence that freshmen rarely display.

Agreed that we don't have enough players who are a good fit for the 2-3, but Mittie can cure that with recruiting--especially if Lanie Page follows her sis to KSU.
Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: SdK on January 17, 2015, 11:27:31 PM
I want to stick to the 2-3 bit tonight and will comment more on the rest tomorrow. But why the eff are are playing a 2-3 against a team nailing 3 after 3 without the players to do it? Why are we wearing the players out chasing them down? I didn't get it. I loved the first half, but felt we were outcoached in the second half. It seemed Mittie had no plan for what they brought us in the second half. I feel I saw a legitimate core that I had not seen in a while on the court. But they were being misused. Maybe this is part of coach changing pains, but I saw a lot of good that I felt was misused.

Maybe this is part of coach changing pains, but I saw a lot of good that I felt was misused.

We stuck with the 2-3 because that's his system. It was very frustrating to see and I was going to come on here and rant against inflexible coaching, then he went man and it was an unmitigated disaster. I understand why he insists on just being a 2-3 team because the young players in the program have to know that this is what we do. It's going to be frustrating against Baylor, OSU, and ISU for a year or two but he has to establish that culture within the program. I don't like going exclusively zone and its highly unusual but if that's what we're doing we have to do it.

The reason why ISU was able to exploit that zone is because we don't have the ability to pressure the ball at the top of the zone so that entry pass to 13 feet out in the lane is very easy to make. Next time you watch Baylor see what they do with the ball up top and then compare that with what we did. We don't take away any passing lanes with our zone.

It will be fine if his daughters can play, frankly Kaylee is out of options at the D1 level so the hammer he's swinging isn't quite as heavy.
Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: bones129 on February 18, 2015, 12:11:48 AM
I think Mittie will prevail in any dispute with Coach Page, if there is in fact any dispute. (Coach Page seems to be a great Cat booster during the games he attends). The sisters commit together here or they don't. They obviously didn't want to play for Deb...that may be why Kaylee transferred to KSU after the former staff left, and why her sister may come here after Deb's departure. Looking forward to these sisters in our lineup.

A similar situation happened at Manhattan High last year with the boys head coach. Based on the quote it leads me to believe the players who quit cared more about other things that didn't pertain to basketball. That's fine for a 17 year old to do, but it doesn't entirely fall on the coach.

I don't know about "not wanting to play for Deb." K-State was in the final three schools for both players. Nebraska was simply a better program when Kaylee selected them and I'm not sure but I'd guess Lanie didn't pick K-State because the coaching situation was very unstable.

I doubt he's going to get fired, they are 14-4. Those four losses are to three teams with a combined record of 65-10 and 20-4 in conference. With those results it's pretty tough to not think the players are being FPs, TCs, etc.

He has no reason to remain at the school. Fired or not, I highly doubt he'll be around next season. I would believe that he was never long for the Wamego job from the beginning.

No it's not any harder than any other offense. Like any other offense the triangle is just a base offense with a series of reads, the more familiar you are with the offense the more reads you can make.

LOL at "Syracuse zone" whatever that means. We, like Syracuse, just run a zone. Syracuse's zone is noteworthy because the players in that zone are long and athletic.

we definitely aren't running the same zone as the Orange

what was noteworthy about the Bulls offense in the mid-90's?  the players were long and athletic.  really?

I guess what I'm saying is that unless you want to treat Boeheim's genius with the respect that it deserves, it's best you just keep its name outta your mouth

Cats slowed down a bit in the second half (Jeff emptied his bench in the fourth quarter) but it was a really good win. It's clear Mittie wants the team to start pounding the ball inside to Lewis, and the team recognizes that and Lewis is starting to accept the fact she needs to go to the rim when she gets it inside. Conference games start December 30 here against ISU.  :ksu:

Well, I was wrong. We lost. Cyclones did a good job against Jeff's various zones. Lewis didn't react well to aggressive play in the paint (ISU scored too many baskets against her, and she missed too many inside shots and layups herself--her stats are misleading in this regard because she didn't play all that well), although there were some indications that she wasn't at full speed. Martin's aggressiveness exceeded anything we've seen from her yet--she's a good player and will get even better.

When Lewis becomes more aggressive on both ends, we'll be a much better team.

It wasn't pretty. Lewis has to be more aggressive. She tends to sulk when getting pushed around inside. And too many missed layups as a team. Martin continued to play well and took it to the rim more often than I recall seeing in the past. Tough road trip to Norman this weekend.

It wasn't pretty. Lewis has to be more aggressive. She tends to sulk when getting pushed around inside. And too many missed layups as a team. Martin continued to play well and took it to the rim more often than I recall seeing in the past. Tough road trip to Norman this weekend.
that kind of beat down isn't really explained by sulking or a few missed layups.

 Lewis' play and the missed layups were just part of it.

Cats fell 'way behind early today, but fought hard the rest of the way to make it somewhat close. Goth played quite a bit and made a difference by playing out front in the zone at times. Kindred is a good player, but we need a bit more size out front when we play the zone.

This was posted on Monday, but it has us as First Four Out. Have to think a win over #30 in the RPI helps bump up a few spots.

The MittieCats are currently #49 in the RPI. We will likely beat KU and Tech at home, but lose at OSU and Texas and at home vs Baylor. A bid could hinge on the Iowa State game in two weeks.

GW is pretty dece, the committee has a tendency to under seed mid majors, even worse than the men's committee. If we win we will finish the season with four games against arguably the nations the best teams and six against the teams in the top 8. It's weird, I haven't seen Mittie talking about toughest schedules.

I'm really not sure what Mittie is looking for out of that other forward position. We seem to have a rotation of four players who play that position and who spell Breanna Lewis when she sits. Those three players are Williams (the #11 you speak of), Willock, Sheble, and Kaylee Page. IMO Page is the best of the four. Willock and Williams are both freshmen though. I think the talent in Willock is apparent but she absolutely makes glaring mistakes. I don't know why Williams seems to be the choice as the starter now but Page gets the most minutes, by far.

I was really impressed w/ Willock and Page. Willock could be really good at the end of four years. Lewis finished almost every time she got the ball in the paint.

The top bizarre men's score will always be UMKC.

Back to my point, and perhaps I don't follow WBB closely enough, but it seems like the elite teams are still so much better than even pretty good teams (NCAA caliber). I don't feel like our WBB ever has a chance to beat Baylor right now.

I don't think parity exists in men's college basketball. It's been over a decade since there's been a first time national champion. There is competitive balance though, nearly all of the teams in the top 8 conferences can beat anyone on any given night. Neither parity nor competitive balance exists in women's college basketball, obviously.

They are playing awful. Middlebrook passing up shots to drive into traffic. Lewis hardly playing at all. Not stopping 54 down low. Poor ball movement. Playing a million players. I came home at half to watch big 12 men's ball. I think they come back and win. OSU isn't good at all. KSU missing layups.

They are probably a 5 seed at the moment.  ESPN's Charlie Creme has us at a 6 seed before beating OU (who he has as a 4 seed).

If we beat Texas our chances at a 4 seed would be good and that means home games in the NCAA tournament.

This is the fifth time we've hosted. That Notre Dame game was awful, terrible upset at the time, they won the national championship the next year.

I don't think we're going to make it out of Manhattan this year either. IF we beat Drake, they're very very very good, I don't think we have anything for Stanford.

Drake is ok and not an easy win at all, but if the good version of this team shows up it's no contest. The good version of this can also run with Stanford if they come out ready to play. Of course the version of this team that lost to Northern Iowa could show up at any point and either team could run us by 20+

Last I checked it was 17 in 30 minutes. Anyway. Glad they won. We are super long and play great defense. I think we give Stanford a game if we cut down turnovers and take open shots.

We literally passed the ball to them at least 10 times. Drake is good. But KSU should know not to pass to a blue jersey.

Unforced turnovers are aggrevating. Did you watch the game MIR? Am I missing something about all the terrible passes right at Drake?
Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: MakeItRain on March 19, 2017, 12:30:30 AM
They play a very aggressive zone and they bait passes into passing lanes that aren't really open. They averaged 11 steals per game, man. They are long, although not nearly as long as we are. The way you best a zone like that is to move the ball quickly, it's why Baylor beats the hell out of us, much worse than the other good teams in the conference, all of their players could pass the ball. Frankly i was surprised we handled Drake as well as we did, I thought we'd have a lot more turnovers because I thought Hittner would do a better job on Lewis and I thought our guards would turn the ball over more. However, that game seemed never in doubt.

Hittner is only a freshman by the way, she can start nearly everywhere. Drake has done a great job of recruiting the states of Kansas and Missouri. Baranczyk is going to get a great deal to leave Drake, if KU was smart they'd fire that jackass they have now and hire Jenny, she's legit. The only real difference between Drake and K-State is depth.

It's not like Drake players were moving into passing lanes. They were standing in place and the ball was sent right into their mitts.
Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: SdK on March 19, 2017, 01:00:10 AM
Or not lobbing the ball high enough over the defender and them sticking a hand up in the post and running the other way with the ball. It wasn't a scheme that I'm mad about.

If you didn't watch the game as your comments clearly state that you didn't, just butt out. Knowing about a team and reading a stat sheet does not and informed opinion make.

Post by: SdK on March 19, 2017, 11:36:59 AM
I agree. Chairback side was decently full. The view from section 9 of the seating was very bad aside from Drake. At times Drake was much louder than our fans.

Lady behind kept making the most lbbiq comments ever. Why are we fouling? (With fouls to give at the end of the quarter and time winding down) Bree, come on. (After receiving a terrible entry pass) and one time Lewis was blocked out and the lady said you're so much taller, you've gotta get that. To name a few.

I'm hoping fans turn out for the game tomorrow. I saw 2 Stanford fans as I walked the concourse. And I didn't see more than a handful in the stands when they were playing. I saw more Iowa fans than Stanford. I can understand. Stanford is supposed to win this site. No reason to travel.

Whether a foul should have been called didn't bother me. It just seemed like the officials felt the need to "help" UConn. I'm glad it didn't decide the game either. The miss st coach can thank his assistants for him not getting a T following that call.

Big come-from-behind win today over 5-5 (now 5-6) UMKC (though, to be slightly fair, the Roos did beat a bad Missouri team last week). It's been a while since I've seen Mittie's "coaching" in person, but what a god damn loser. During timeouts, he spends 50-75 percent of the time just standing there, not engaging his players, sometimes chatting with an assistant coach and then he goes into the huddle with 30 seconds left. It's bizarre. I lost count, but the team had at least three turnovers coming out of timeouts when, in theory, he would have called a set play.

In this game, Williams scores 13 points in the first half on 5-of-7 shooting. Then, she gets ONE shot in the second half. Lee had a very solid game and was getting touches, but for this staff to not get their players to get the team's best player the ball in the second half during a close/back-and-forth game was amazing. Carr was an enormous black hole that resulted in a missed shot (1-for-9 in the game) or a turnover (led the team with 4). She kept chucking shots that weren't anywhere close to going in. During one particularly poor sequence, K-State gets a steal and Carr's got a one-on-one fastbreak - no brainer, just to go straight to the rim. Nope, she stops and nearly air balls a 15-footer instead. A legit top 30 national player should be playing better.

There's a fair bit of talent on this team, but Mittie is currently pissing it away.

I'm starting to get the impression that the women's season is in much more peril than the men's season. They don't have the pressure to finish that the men do. I think Duke started something that we'll see more of very soon, especially as students start to return to these campuses.

i'm pulling this description from KSO because it's too good. lady cats lost last night at WVU which was kind of expected but read how they lost...

Quote
Absolutely embarrassing display by the K-State women and the 'coaching' of Jeff Mittie at West Virginia!!! Took a 12 point lead at 56-44 with 4:36 left in the game. Still at 56-44 with 3:03 left. K-State proceeds to get off two shots (one blocked) for the remainder of the game and commit, get this, 7 turnovers, virtually all trying to get the ball in under the WVU basket against their press. Mittie then gets 2 technicals and kicked out of the game with 7 seconds left. West Virginia goes on a 21-0 run for the last 3:03 of the game to come from 12 down and win 65-56. Most epic collapse of total ineptitude I think I have ever witnessed in basketball even at the Junior High level!! Mittie, now in his 7th season with an All-American 6'-6" center is now 0-3 in Big 12 play and has a team and program in total disarray just like the men! Gene needs to get better options for both programs than these two John Currie hires!!!

They had 11 possessions in the last 3 and a half minutes of the game. 10 of those possessions were turnovers and the other resulted in a blocked shot.

In the same way that oscar has never been able to recruit a pure shooter, Mittie has been an absolute disaster at recruiting point guards.

#MittieOut

We just lost to OU who had 6 players, not 6 scholarship players and 3 walk ons, 6 players.

Now Ayoka Lee was victim to the worst no call I've ever seen on a basketball court, no hyperbole, but they should have never been in that position. A series of frankly very stupid decisions led to that. If there's 2 minutes left in a game and you're down 4 with 3 fouls to give, you don't just start giving them with 10 seconds on the shot clock.
Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: Kid In the Hall on January 31, 2021, 03:56:36 PM
It's definitely Covid and not at all that Mittie has shown stunning incompetence despite having fairly talented rosters (albeit rosters without point guards).

He is the Mark Fox/Andy Kennedy of Big 12 women's ball - average a 19-13 record every year, alternate between NIT/NCAA bids and continue to earn a paycheck because he (and his predecessor) collectively sucked the life-force out of the program.

But, if Mean Gene doesn't fire oscar, how can you fire Mittie when their respective seasons are basically the same (though I'd argue Mittie has more talent and was picked to finish in the top half of the league).

I truly don't know how anyone could have watched that game and didn't come away thinking that he isn't over his head. I would understand losing to 6 players from flood aggie, but that OU team was awful. That was a worse loss than the men on Saturday.

Bruh.

Lost a 10 point lead with 3 minutes left in the game. Had a 5 point lead and the ball under a minute, took a shot with 16 seconds left on the shot clock, got blocked.

Didn't score the last 3:24 of regulation. Got outscored 22-4 the last 8 minutes of the game, 3 minutes of regulation and overtime.  :facepalm:

Watching the men get blown out ever game and the women piss every game away late is a fantastic fan experience. I think what the women are doing is more brutal because they constantly give hope, they can't keep finding ways to blow games. The men are out of games but the first media timeout, so it's meh at this point.
Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: Kid In the Hall on March 12, 2021, 08:24:19 PM
In a fitting way to end the year, Mittie again defies 99 percent win probability and can't lead his team to holding on despite a 7 point lead with less than a minute to play against No. 2 seed WVU. Once again, the team couldn't execute an inbounds play in the final minute and had three turnovers.

The peggy po's will say a bad no-call (and it was a bad-no call) with 5 seconds left cost us the game. But, that ignores that we put ourselves in that position and that we have a head coach who has been unable to get his team to value the ball and consistently execute an inbounds play/break the press all season.
Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: MakeItRain on March 13, 2021, 09:45:48 AM

Really fun atmosphere in Bramlage last night. Oregon was preseason top 10 in the country and the Cats were in control from start to finish. Lee is a star, and she was dominant on both ends of the court yesterday while managing some early foul trouble. Maybe in some part due to injury, we start three freshmen including the Glenn twins from KC. I really like our freshman PG Sundell's game - very under control and she had 8 assists yesterday.

The squad is really good, really fun, and it's nice to watch Mittieball when he has a team that can score. I still don't like it, but it's tolerable with talent. They're 100% making the tournament and should be good enough to win a game or two when they get there.

Just? That crap was 4 days ago, you bored? Mittie is 14-4 against KU since he's gotten here, I think that's the same record Self has against K-State in that same time frame.

The team isn't very average, they are exactly what a team filled with freshmen looks like. Their second, third, and forth best players are all freshmen and the player who is going to be Big 12 freshman of the year was hurt, probably didn't see that reading the box score four days later.

This team has a lot of similarities to the 07'-08' men's team. The difference is the Beasley and Walker of this team will be coming back next year.

They are a year ahead of schedule. No one expected them to be where they are and they are doing it without Ranke, they only player on the roster consistently able to hit three point shots. We're in a good place, stop trolling and enjoy the ride the next 14 months.

I get pretty aggravated by how Scott and Mitch Fortner talk about Ayoka Lee and the women's team in general. They don't watch any other games other than K-State, which is fine, but then they make these sweeping statements about wins and awards and crap. Our team is good, no where close to great, yet, and Lee is not going to win the national player of the year.

I knew we'd be on the 8/9 line so if I were to pick a 1 seed, that'd be the one I'd pick. Kinda surprised we're there given we've already played them.

Just turned it on and it's been great!

This coaching staff thought it would be a great idea to wait until halfway through the third quarter to make any kind of meaningful adjustments to a defensive scheme that has stymied them all season long (teams doubling Lee and ignoring one of our nonshooters).

Thankfully, Wazzu was an even worse shooting team than us today.

We will get destroyed (again) by NC State on Monday.

Mittie remains an idiot incapable of taking advantage of the once-in-a-generation player he has. But, our apathetic fan base will be happy with an NCAA bid and a first round win because it could be worse (see Weber, oscar).

Weird meltdown

Not for anyone who's actually watched this team during the last few years.

This team was playing at at top 10-15 level earlier in the season, but couldn't sustain it when teams realized Mittie has no answers on the offensive end when teams double Lee all game.

They'll have a decent-good year next year (not even Mittie could screw that up) and then they'll crater the year after (similar to Weber after 2019).

Post by: MakeItRain on March 19, 2022, 08:31:23 PM
I was very frustrated at the coaches too, KITH. However, the adjustment really wasn't anything they could have done other than finally pulling Ebert. The players eventually needed to be more aggressive in using dribble penetration to make the defense move to get Ayoka more room. The freshmen seemed intimidated by the moment but finally got into the game and I think Goodrich and Dallinger really helped them do so. I don't know if there was a lot for the coaches other than to continue to remind them to move the ball and be more aggressive to break the defense down and I'm certain they were doing that.

Post by: MakeItRain on March 19, 2022, 08:34:58 PM
NCSU will not do the pack the lane thing, they feel like they are better at every position and will play us straight up. Lee will need to stay out of foul trouble trying to guard Cunane and we gotta hit shots. As much as I hate our zone, we may need to play it for extended stretches.

Post by: Kid In the Hall on March 20, 2022, 09:06:47 AM
Respectfully, I disagree - this staff has repeatedly proven it's incompetent. Whether it was the inability to get the ball up the court last year or repeated horrific late-game collapses, the inability to recruit a single serviceable point guard until year seven in the program or the inability to avoid things like 5 point quarters like yesterday - they are just plain bad.

Yesterday, it's not like the solution was complex - get the guards to drive the ball, run some high post with Lee, run some ball screens - simple stuff to unclog the middle when outside shots aren't falling. This staff didn't do any of that until the third quarter.

I guess you could argue that maybe they told the players to do those things and the freshmen were being freshmen, but I don't buy that.

Either way, it was yet another reminder of the consistent pattern of this staff - which is pretty much that when plan A doesn't work, they can't execute a plan B (for whatever reason).
Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: MakeItRain on March 20, 2022, 02:59:06 PM
I'm not arguing about anything that happened before this season, hell even before yesterday. However, yesterday, on it's own merits, wasn't a reason to be angry at the coaches. The game played out the way it needed to get that win, even though it took a half. Adjustments were clearly made to personnel and strategy, I'm not sure you can divorce the coaches from that. Don't worry I'm sure in 26 hours we'll have tons of things to attack Mittie for.

Also make no mistake, I am definitely not a Mittite but the 2021 signing class makes how I feel about him complicated. I still hate our style of play albeit he did drop the crappy zone, for the most part.

For consideration... a review of two Big 12 coaching careers: 

oscar Weber
10 years (all at K-State)
Overall: 184-147 (.556)
Big 12: 82-98 (.456)
2 Big 12 titles
4 top 5 Big 12 finishes
5 NCAA appearances, 1 Elite Eight
4 losing seasons overall
6 losing seasons Big 12 record

Jeff Mittie
10 years (2 at TCU, 8 at K-State)
Overall: 172-145 (.542)
Big 12: 76-106 (.417)
0 Big 12 titles
3 top 5 Big 12 finishes
4 NCAA appearances, never advanced past second round
3 NIT appearances, one third round appearance
2 losing seasons overall
6 losing seasons Big 12 record

I'm not going to cape up for Mittie but I don't think women's coaches should be measured the same way men's coaches are. I think the expectations should be different. For example, I think Deb would still be here if she didn't embarrass the athletic department, more than once.

oscar got fired because his program didn't produce the revenues necessary to assist in running the athletic department.

It would be great if WBB was dropped straight out for another women's sport.

I don't care if WBB isn't has mature as MBB, at most D1 schools they've  had the same access to facilities as the men for decades.   Literally everything at K-State from a facilities perspective has been the same for WBB as it is  MBB for decades now.

They're never going to do anything.   Time to take that $4 or $5 million dollars a year wasted on WBB and try another sport(s).

She would have gotten more bring drafted but the difference is shockingly close. If she went into the draft this year, her contract for the current season would have been between $69,000 and $66,000 not guaranteed BTW. She almost certainly would have retained most of her current endorsements, but the WNBA salary is a joke. You'd think all the new found, last 8 months, women's sports advocates would change some of this, lol yeah right.

And, as Griner's situation has made clear - the majority of women's b-ball players make more overseas than they do in the WNBA (in many cases, significantly more). So, if you assume Yoki would have also played overseas, that probably tips the balance.

Yeah, I'm sure it's a pretty decent financial hit overseas.  Of course, it still sucks plenty bad to have to put everything on hold for another year for an injury.  I'm just glad/hoping the NIL changes help soften that blow.

She left OU because she had health issues under Sherri Coale. After Coale left and Baranczyk took over, she just had a hard time consistently getting on the court. As to why she ended up at K-State, I think Mittie just won the recruiting battle. We were in her top 5 when she went to OU. I'm sure having the chance to play with Ayoka certainly didn't hurt.

Sidebar, but a lot of big 12 women have transferred within conference the last two years, it's a weird phenomenon.

Which is hilarious. One of the most vocal Iowa fans, the one who I saw who seemed the most mad, is actually one of my wife's former students, I know him well. He's out of his mind, and many of her games are like that, he's a flopping goddess. She had a play in the second quarter where she shot a layup with her right hand and with her left hand, pulled Sundell's shoulder into her to draw a foul, it was the play that the ball got stuck on the rim. She's an amazing player but she stays throwing her body into the defender, it's frustrating as hell.

Wow. Tough senior night for the Ladycats this afternoon. I watched them in the OOD for the first time this year and it looked like they ran into a buzzsaw. Ended up losing by approx 30 pts and it was never close. Texas was very long and physical. Gregory wasn't able to get anything going.

For those who follow WBB, how do you see the trajectory of Ladycat basketball? Is their destiny to stay in the middle of the conference? Seems like it is really hard to break into that elite tier of WBB programs.

Yeah she's coming back, already announced it. She came here to play with Ayoka. Ebert and Shematsi were the only seniors recognized yesterday. Ebert will not take her COVID year, she's retiring from basketball. Shematsi has no eligibility left.

Yeah she's coming back, already announced it. She came here to play with Ayoka. Ebert and Shematsi were the only seniors recognized yesterday. Ebert will not take her COVID year, she's retiring from basketball. Shematsi has no eligibility left.

Glad to hear that Gabby and Lee are coming back. Did Shematsi spend her whole career with the Cats. She had some nice moments yesterday.

Fun one to watch last night. Mittie didn't really call any sets and just let them play, and we looked really comfortable. Maupin and the twins played well and I think we had four or five in double figures.

If Wyoming wins tonight, we'll probably have a trip to Laramie for Monday. Apparently you have to bid for a chance to host these WNIT games and Wyoming has hosted a lot in recent years. If they lose to Corpus Christi we would most likely be back in Bramlage.

I think the Ohlde/Koehn/Wecker/Mahoney teams would be the only ones that you could argue. Probably Ohlde's senior year (03-04, I think) - Coggins was on that team too, but I don't think she played much. As usual, Deb flamed out in the tourney - though they had to play at Minnesota (with Lindsey Whalen) in the second round, which was BS. But, they won the Big 12 and finished top 10 in the final poll IIRC

Yeah, Deb was terrible in the tournament with those teams but she was also constantly getting really bad draws topped off with having to play at Minnesota.

As for this year, all four new teams aren't great. BYU had the best results of the four but they finished 5th in the WCC so it's real hard to be optimistic about any of them.

This is at minimum a top 15 team. I don't want to be that guy but outside of Zy "the human handcuffs" Walker and maybe Taryn Sides, we played woman for woman, not great, including Yokie.

Now expectations should be sky high because that's the most difficult game, on paper, we'll play before the sweet 16 or elite 8. That atmosphere was indescribable, Carver Hawkeye was significantly louder than I've ever heard Bramlage for a women's game. Those have to be the best fans in all of women's college basketball and I've seen UConn in Connecticut.

He coached his ass off last night and in both Iowa games. He can teach a clinic on how he handled that foul trouble without going zone, fouling anyone out, or putting the team in the position where they were offensively handcuffed or where they gave Clark a breather. Coaches are as good as their talent and he's built the deepest roster in the conference.

i was expecting 8-12, which is where we should land after beating unc and iowa next weekend in florida.  16 is a joke.

Smollervision is great, man. I love that guy. He just gets so caught up in the action.

I’d love it if he became the main radio voice for mbb too. Don’t think it would fly tho. He gets too excited for the opposing team for many to stomach.

It remains to be seen just how good Iowa is. They did beat, pretty easily, a really good VA Tech team. I don't think they're as good as they were last year but we absolutely shouldn't be 11 places apart in the top 25. Both of these teams are top 10 teams, we'll see if the top 25 tomorrow is reflective of that.

T12th in this week's poll. We have six straight games against pud teams until we play a mediocre Oklahoma team at home on Jan. 10. We should be 15-1 by then and firmly in the top 10. After OU, we get Texas at home on Jan. 13 - that'll be a big-time game. There's a chance UT could still be undefeated at that point (though they play Baylor a couple of weeks before they face us).

Texas just lost their potential all-american PG to a season-ending injury last week and then they lost their first game of the year at home to Baylor (ranked No. 10)  last weekend. They're still plenty good (destroyed Tech tonight), but if we bring our A game and don't commit 20 TOs like we did tonight, we have a pretty decent chance, particularly since we're at home.

Not next year, no. We'll still be good next year but without doing major damage in the portal we'll be a fringe top 25 team next year. It's now or never.

I think we can make it to the final four, I really do. I don't think we're good enough to beat South Carolina, it would take a Georgetown vs. Villanova 1985 "perfect game" like performance to pull that off.

Three straight defensive stops is called a gap. The gap goat is a mascot for getting a gap. Research shows that getting 7 gaps in a game gives that team a 94% chance of winning.

Agreed, really what's interesting is this happens to the current league front runners (us and Iowa State). So it's like nothing happens on that front. But it's I guess nice to not risk playing and injuries, but it's also not nice to get PT in, and have travelled already all the way to Ft. Worth.

A midweek rest and trip to Buc-ee's isn't the worst for this team. Lee was hobbling a little Saturday and Sundell and Gregory have picked up a few knocks recently.

Meanwhile, Saturday's opponent is coming home from Austin with a 35 point L. (still not sure how KU beat Baylor)

That's the ankle injury. They decided for her to have surgery, which is a good idea. From what I understand the injury is, I had a very similar surgery in 2019. We have a two game lead on every other conference team not named Iowa State and I don't think they will be a contender.

Seems like we should be worried then. No clue how we can win @BU and @Texas now, let alone @ISU. Seems like most likely the regular season title is probably going to be very, very hard to achieve.
Just hope she can make a fully recovery and full force by tourny time.

We have a two game lead. Texas lost their all american for the season. Baylor just lost to two teams that will be bubble teams this year.

Well, 1 game w/ ISU. But understand your point, just very nervous to play said Texas team that took us to the wire at home, and still playing a dangerous Baylor team.

Weird game... KUs top two players go down, we're getting nothing from Gregory or Sanchez, bad calls all over the place.

We look like we haven't played without Lee (even though we did all last year).

Maupin's been a bright spot, I think we need Sundell to be more assertive from a scoring standpoint during this next month

Maupin was fantastic, v happy for her. Big game from Brylee Glenn as well. Sundell had 3 blocks, 3 steals, and 7 assists to go along with 15 and 6. What a player!

#3, 4, and 6 all lost this week and #2 Iowa plays a ranked opponent on the road tomorrow. Ladycats should skyrocket in the polls again before their trip to Waco on Monday.

Baylor was shaky again today, only beating a now 0-6 UCF team at home by 3 as 26-point favorites.

Maupin and B Glenn haven't filled up the boxscore much lately. So many weapons on this team. I think they will continue to roll thru the conference even without Lee.

hilarious, she thought she had 1.8 seconds, not 10.8.  oops

there’s also a theory that she was trying to draw a foul but I think that’s debunked if you watch her actions after her shot, she’s motioning to the bench and scorers table as though she knew she messed up

That's right. She's been hidden because Mittie has given Sanchez waaaaaayyyyy too long of a leash, she does not have it for this level. Luckily this hasn't cost us a game and Maupin just snatched those minutes without us having to take a loss to do so.

I agree on the leash with Sanchez - been a rough stretch of games with her lately. But, I saw some things earlier in the year that make me think she's got potential to be a key contributor down the road. She was big in the UNC win (15 points) and even with playing fairly limited minutes all year, she's still second on the team in rebounding. Probably never great defensively, but I think scoring potential is there.

That Baylor win already put us ahead of what I thought with Lee out.  If we can beat the non-OUT teams consistently, we'll be good for the conference.  I'm also hoping this non-Lee time develops some more players for the tournament.  Walker and Maupin have been great.

she does have a tendency to try and take her opponents off of the dribble like she’s kobe, and it never works, and it eats precious shot clock seconds, but I can overlook it.

Awful no-call on Crooks as Gregory drives the baseline and gets pushed out of bounds. Borderline call on us on the next possession to get ISU up by one, then Sundell doesn't get the same call on the other end.

it’s getting harder and harder to watch a game where, especially in wbb, the officials aren’t noticeably bad.

with that said, had we not played like dumbasses at the end of OT we would have won the game.  the turnovers in both overtimes cost us the game, not the officiating.  after watching us give ISU the ball repeatedly, i felt like we didn’t deserve to win.

Crooks should have fouled out but this is the absolute correct take. We should have won in regulation and the first overtime but we pissed it away.

She was definitely good and, not to be a dork, but purely based on her physique, I was impressed with her stamina.

I also thought the kid from Derby was really good for a frosh. No idea if there's a story there as to why she picked ISU, but she's going to a force for the next 3 years.

Addy Brown, she blew me a kiss last night when I was chatting during her free throws. She's their most versatile player. I don't know why she picked ISU, she was recruited by everyone regionally. I do know that they were the best combination of accomplished programs and the opportunity to play big minutes right away.

She was a beast last night. I was curious about her HS career. Looks like she averaged 33 pts and 13 rebounds as a senior last year. Also, I had forgotten about Emily Ryan's HS career in KS -- 3rd all time in scoring (behind Jackie Stiles and Laurie Koehn), her HS teams went 104-0 (granted it was against KS 1A and 2A competition).

She is eligible, there's no scuttlebutt as to what she's going to decide to do. She's already practicing as a family counselor, so I'm not taking that as a great sign she's coming back. Her injury history doesn't make her a WNBA sure thing. I doubt that she makes her mind up and makes an announcement before April.

May be hard to catch OU. Outlook for finishing 2nd seems good. Unless I'm missing something, they are pretty much a lock for one of the top 4 seeds in the Ladies Phillips. Looking forward to watching them in KC.
Edit: hope there is a good crowd in the OOD on Wednesday for the rematch against ISU. Should be a real donnybrook.

That isn't accurate. She isn't making a ton off of NIL nor would she make a lot in the W, $60,000. Her endorsements are largely national brands and she would carry those with her. Where NIL helps her the most is that she can be paid to see her clients now. Believe it or not before NIL legislation, she would not be able to be a counselor, definitely not get paid to do so.

The money is small either way, if money was a factor she'll just quit playing at the end of this season and go to work. If she comes back it will be to win titles. If she opts to try the W it's because she still loves to play and wants to try against the best in the world.

Not getting anything from Gabby is really hurting us. This was supposed to be a big three but it's really a big 1 3/4. Luckily there's 10 days between the Big 12 Championship game and the first day of the tournament. This team is beat to hell, more than standard for a basketball team.

100% - her shoulder must be incredibly jacked up. She averaged 18.5 ppg last year and has scored that many in a game once all year (and has scored under double figures more games than she's scored in double figures). She was never going to get 18 per game with Lee back, but she should be 10-15 pretty consistently if she's playing at 100%.

And, Sundell has more to give and has to be more aggressive offensively. She's hitting 54% from the field and 38% from 3 pt. There's no reason why Gabby should be getting the same volume of shots at her current shot rates (25% from 3 and 34% from the field) and they have the exact same number of attempts from the field on the year.

Obviously, would also be nice to get more consistent offensive output from the Glenns, Walker or Sanchez.

Coaches poll is of zero significance. We are 14th in the net right now. I think a win on Saturday night gets us a top 16 seed, two wins absolutely locks it up. Win the Big 12 and we might move up to a 2 seed. Of course none of these things are in a vacuum, what happens in the WCC, Big 10, ACC, and Pac 12 conference tournaments is really important.

The Mittie handicap in full effect in the first quarter. WVU comes out and does the exact same thing as in the last game (their 3 pt shooting center pops out after screens and drills 3s) and it's as though we've never seen it because Lee is sagging instead of guarding the screener . We keep going under screens and they hit 5 of their first 6 3s.

Will have to dig ourselves out of a hole (again).

WVU was 3-for-10 from the field in the second quarter with 4 TOs and 8 total points.

They started the game 8-for-10 from the field (and 4-for-5 from 3) in the first 5:30 of the game... then they went 3-for-18 the rest of the half (0-for-6 from 3).

Blacksten will be back in the 2nd after picking up 2 fouls in the first quarter - hope we play her differently because when she stretches the floor, it was a big issue for us.

They are up 3 for me now with Lee going out

Beat Texas and we host.

Lose and... who knows.

As it relates to the last few of the top 16 in the committee rankings... No. 13 Colorado lost to No. 12 Oregon State in OT after winning their first tourney game, No. 14 Indiana was upset by Michigan in its first game, No. 15 Gonzaga plays on Monday and Oklahoma won today and plays ISU tomorrow.

Is Colorado losing 6 of its last 8 games and Indiana getting upset enough to push us into the top 16 if we lose to UT given that we picked up another top 25ish win?

Title: Re: ksu ladycats
Post by: Kid In the Hall on March 13, 2024, 01:34:34 PM
Updated NET rankings have K-State at No. 14, Indiana at No. 15 and Colorado at No. 16.

After updating today, ESPN bracketology guy still has IU and CU 4 seeds and K-State going to No. 4 Gonzaga (No. 12 in NET).

Also seems odd that the Big 12 would only have one top four seed (Texas) in favor of giving another one to the Big Ten (3) and Pac-12 (4).

At home, Colorado's lost 6 of their last 8, they play a slow pace, Lee will have a 3 inch height advantage against their center, they're not really great in any particular area (though they do shoot it fairly well from 3 pt) - this is as good of a draw to get to the Sweet 16 as we could have asked for.

After that - arguably the toughest of all 4 brackets.

I think he means depth of teams at the regional. South Carolina is one of the best teams of all time, they will win the national championship. Unfortunately, I will have us losing to LSU in the regional final. Having to play the second best team in the country to get to the final four after beating the best player is unfortunate.

Correct on all accounts...

Oddsmakers have SC as the overwhelming favorite (-120!), but No. 2 is Iowa (+550) and No. 3 is LSU (+900).

It looks like the only thing we practiced this season was passing it into Lee even if she was getting blocked almost every time. I feel like we had other players worthy of getting a play called for them a time or two, but maybe I'm wrong.

I was pretty critical of Mittie on twitter, and I stand by that, but there were plenty of opportunities for the guards to make plays but they didn't. Sundell and the Glenn twins were completely psyched out in the second half. We should have seen the freshmen guards but Mittie didn't recognize that Lee and Gregory were the only two starters who didn't shrink in the moment.

They got good looks for Gabby and Serena in the first half but both teams teams knew that were trying to get the ball to Lee everytime in the second half. Great defensive effort down 10 to start 4Q. They cut the lead to six but had what seemed like five empty possessions after that.

Still rates as one of the most fun KSU teams and seasons to follow regardless of the sport.

Seems like they left 2 or 3 layups on the table in the fourth quarter when they really, really needed a basket.

That sums up Mittie's entire career... he will not have a better team than this year and we couldn't even make it to the 2nd weekend.
Deb Patterson 2.0. Why didn't Maupin see more minutes?
Not an x's and o's expert but I think she would have been a liability on defense against their bigs.
She absolutely was.

Correct. She gotta hit the weights.

MIR said it - Sundell and the Glenns were pretty bad yesterday (especially in the 2nd half) and their minutes/usage rates all year have been off the charts (Sundell and Jaelyn). That's on Mittie for not getting Sides and Walker - two pretty talented players - more involved in the rotation, especially earlier in the year.

There could/should be a reckoning coming this offseason into next year for those three. Sundell has to take better care of the ball (less than a 2:1 assist to TO ratio this year) and she has to be more assertive offensively. The Glenns need to produce offensively, especially Jaelyn. Ideally, their minutes/usage would go down by default next year with the assumption of Walker/Sides getting better. But, if they can't step up/improve, then more minutes should be lost. Jaelyn was 37% from 3 pt last year and was barely 30% this year. Has to be better because we need her scoring.

So what is the deal with the Kim Mulkey Washington Post story? Are they going to reveal something unique and unexpected about her?

We have a real issue this off season. If he sticks with the Missouri 3, we run the real risk of losing Sides, Walker, and or Hess, not to mention the two other combo guards we have that didn't play this year. He screwed this roster up by how it was constructed, made it even worse by not giving Walker and Sides more minutes. I don't know how he's going to convince all 8, yes 8 combo guards we have on the roster to stay, but good luck to him. Our only signee is also a 6'0" combo guard. Dude just got a roster full of the same damn player.
