I think 03 is right. It makes sense to keep KF who hasn't had a season over 500/winning season in the HL. Come on guys...it's about the effort he gives. Win or lose he tries and that is all we can ask for! 

:crazy:

IndyValpo nailed it.

03 I can act like a 5 year old too. Let me guess...you'd be perfect for the job. And with that plan....I'd hire you right on the spot! It is just so smart and well thought out that...I mean you're the missing piece to the success of WBB....WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN HIDING?! 

Anyways, practices are open you know...you want to get rid of the girls? Stop by and check out a practice and then make your decision about starting with Keith from the ground up. I occasionally walk with my wife on the track and you'll be just as disgusted as I was with his coaching technique.

With that being said, how long have you been watching this team? We have had talent each and every year and Keith finds a way to destroy it. These girls bust it but they are the problem? Have you even played a sport before? Probably not so that explains a lot then...

To respond to your comment about cutting their fund and not giving them gear...my good friend is a professor at VU and he has one of the freshman in his class and she was telling him how they get next to nothing. Meaning all they get are the travel suits and a couple t shirts. So taking their "gear" wouldn't mean anything to them.

I agree, it's very hard to watch these girls work so hard on the court and look over to see their DIVISION ONE head coach sitting with his head in his hands. How about we find someone who is engaged and has a passion for the game so then Keith can watch games like that from that stands.

Don't have a daughter...I'm not a father or mother on here complaining because "my daughter" doesn't get minutes. I'm just an old fart who has been following the team for many years.

When you look back at past seasons I always wondered why the girls who had an extra 5th year wouldn't play...it all makes sense. You have girls in the past and present who are unhappy for a reason. Ask players who have graduated from him how they liked it? Have you ever seen an alumni at the game? Here and there yes...Gick was a hell of a point guard and she had passion for a game. If she wanted too she could have pushed through it cause she's tough. But the pain wasn't worth it anymore to put up with...like the walk on. I know Gick and I know this is true. Has anyone investigated this program? They haven't had a season over 50 yet in the horizon.
In response to the game last night...the girls worked as hard as they could for having 7. But Keith is known for being out coached when the games get close. It's been like this for the past 2-3 even 4 years. I love watching the the other teams coach have so much passion for their team and the game and watch ours just sit there making faces to the assistants. An investigation is needed for this program sonnet rather than later.

The walk on that was on the team from last year "walked off" and it wasn't because of playing time. She wasn't a fan of Keith from what I heard going around, which is a shame that a coach was the factor in her quitting. I was asked to eat lunch with some of the team and that girl is such a sweetheart, wouldn't harm a fly. She was passionate about the game and her teammates. She just wasn't going to put up with him....she was torn apart leaving but for her it wasn't worth putting on a jersey for him...

Since Paul seems to know everything within the program why haven't we seen any articles on it? You sitting on all this information is BS. Do your job, be a reporter, and report what is going on. It's disgusting how you refuse to post anything in the times referring to all this. You know more than anyone...Keith paying you to keep your mouth shut? Classy.

These girls need to learn to play with who they have right now because from what I have heard no one else is coming back.
Shaquira Scott- ACL tear out for remainder of season
Charare Richardson- Red shirt due to eligibility reasons
Betsy Adams- Knee problem (got surgery) (I heard though that she was only suppose to be out for 4 weeks tho..hmmm...)
Stefanie Lang- Knee surgery, then severe back injury, and now her knee is hurt again
Maegan Callaway- Red shirt due to severe back injury
Liz Horton- Concussion

I have a question? From what I hear in the stands Adams, Lang, and Callaway should ALL be back playing right now or sooner. What is going on with the rehab that is holding them back? I know they have a new athletic trainer, but i just question how those girls can be out for this long! I heard they aren't even practicing yet! And sadly I have also heard some pretty disturbing things within the program..

Good luck girls...stay strong, hang tough, ,and keep fighting

Where is Jessica Carr? And could someone enlighten me why Valpo has two centers listed yet none of them are playing? Even last year there was little use. Another point, Geradot and Lange are NOT centers and Varner is NOT a guard.

I was hoping for a win I really thought they had it but that turnover at the end killed them.
