• I agree. Also, there was some snafu this past year where some high-caliber prospect did not get in and the prospect's friend renegged on her offer. Also, an assistant coach left not too far ahead of the start of the season I believe. I would wait to see how things pan out next year. (NT) -- JCMB, Sat March 12, 2005 12:53:11
  • Heard both those recruits were blue chippers and rejected by Fordham Admissions but both accepted by Georgetown and ended up Hoyas. True? (NT) -- Rambacker, Sat March 12, 2005 13:08:54
    • I heard something along those lines, too, plus the assistant coach that left went to Georgetown, too. (NT) -- JCMB, Sat March 12, 2005 13:22:21
    • The story is the one girl was a top recruit. Her father was brought along as an assistant coach. The 2nd girl is practically like family to this top recruit. She is the one who could not academically qualify. Therefore, they all decided to leave and go to Georgetown who would admit them. Her father went back to coaching h.s. I believe they also lost another assistant coach. (NT) -- Air Hej '02, Sat March 12, 2005 14:10:47
      • This story has been re-told 1000 times., It has nothing to do with a 5 year abysmal record. FIRE this guy yesterday, hire a mid major coach like the one at St. Francis in PA. Get rid of him NOW! (NT) -- ant hill, Sun March 13, 2005 14:22:00
      • The other part of the story, as I heard it, was that the star recruit was quite upset with the lack of discipline and direction; when she confronted the coach with this observation there was no response. Coupled with her friend's rejection by admissions, all left. No response is quite damming, IMHO. (NT) -- RJA, Sun March 13, 2005 16:47:03
        • The "Star" recruit left before school started in September! She actually was a throw-in in order to get the girl with the poor academics. Admissions rejection caused the father and daughter to leave. Coach Reid had been told by the administrators a number of times that her actions were ethically borderline so she went back to G-town where they were accepted and took the package with her. Whether Lewis should be fired is another matter but the school did the right thing in this case. Winning isn't everything. (NT) -- That's my take on it, Mon March 14, 2005 11:37:07
  • the women were 5-11 in conference play this year, that is a terrible season,. pay attention and read before such imbecilic posts air hej. (NT) -- Hedge, Sat March 12, 2005 15:39:43
    • 4th in the East and they won an A-10 tourney game, not a terrible year. (NT) -- Air Hej '02, Sat March 12, 2005 20:05:45
      • 5-11 is 5-11. The fact that they were able to finish in 4th just shows that they played in a weak East division. One more win and they would have finished tied for 2nd, I think that says it all. 5-11, 10-21 overall is a terrible year any way you slice it. (NT) -- JóDete93, Sat March 12, 2005 20:25:37
        • You are right, there really is no excusing a 10-21 season. A win in the A-10 tourney should be considered somewhat of a success for them though. (NT) -- Air Hej '02, Sat March 12, 2005 21:20:23
    • Hedge, watch the personal attacks. I know you attacked the post and not the person, but that is cutting it close to inappropriate. (NT) -- JóDete93, Sat March 12, 2005 20:28:12
      • Sorry. I just find it un-nerving that the facts are readily available a click away . 5-11 is terrible. I was only attacking the info, I know Hej seems like a decent guy on here. Sometimes, it is shocking when we go back and look at the records and realize how Frank continues to praise this guy in the face of terrible performance. (NT) -- Hedge, Sun March 13, 2005 14:38:40
