Seems a little bit odd to promote her into that spot while you're still looking for her new boss, but I guess it's more of an organisational decision than a single person hiring an underling. Whether she's any good or not, who the hell knows from the outside. |

One of the great wits from Ohio State once said:
"She who can, plays. She who can't, administrates."
Or someone/something like that. |

Boy, McCallie not only prepares them for life on the court but life off the court as well.

I think you're being tongue-in-cheek, but the majority of the women Cam mentioned did not play for or attend Duke during the mediocre McCallie era. The ones who did either transferred away (Jones) or wrote the administration shedding light on the problems in the program (Williams). Christmas was recruited by Gail Goestenkors.
