Where are the women's lacrosse vBets? I'm sure we could get something going for whatever they're showing on CSTV and ESPNU.

I don't get the Big Ten Channel, CSTV or ESPNU.

But it's hard to take your sarcasm seriously since you placed some vCash on the Lady Vols. :biggrin:

But I'm moving on to the Masters vbet, even though golfers aren't athletes.

That does not mean that she is a "great basketball coach". Great recruiter possibly, one of the greatest coaches ever... No!

Have you ever worked in a place that is mostly women? Summit's recruiting is part of why she's a great coach, but the fact that she's able to get that many woman to work together, without stabbing each other in the back due to jealousy or any number of other reasons that women will find to take down a rival, is an amazing coaching accomplishment. This is especially true if all of these women were highly sought after in high school and think that they are the one that deserves the spotlight, or shots, or playing time that another girl is getting. If you think that male athletes can be douchebag primadona's (which they can) then you've never been around a large group of women that spend every single day together...and hate each other simply for being women.

As a matter of fact I have worked in such an environment. My point is that when I think of great basketball coaches in the college game and I think of John Wooden, Dean Smith, John Chaney, etc. I think of guys who are innovators and who have created something different for college basketball. Summit has had a head start on women's basketball and has maintained that. Just because she has the ability to work with a bunch of back stabbers and get along with women does not make her a great basketball coach. I wonder if she has ever been offered a big-time men's position to coach basketball. Men's basketball at Tennessee was down for many many years because of the women's program and I think that is one of the reasons she got to the top. You have your opinion and I have mine. They just differ:)
