I'm not definind success as beating UConn or South Carolina. I'm defining

success as being able to beat the top teams in your own league. That's what you have to do to win your league. Marquette was not able to beat UConn more than once while Duffy was their coach. And thus she never won that league. So my concern is, can she beat the top teasm in the ACC? I hope so, but great coaches find a way to do more with less. Now if you want to say that winning the ACC is not our goal, then fine we can lower our expectations. BTW, ND has a 2-1 record against UConn over the last 3 years so there are teams that can beat them.

Any Marquette WBB? Wonder if they’re in a soap opera @ the moment. **

I’d compare MB Marquette to KB JMU records
Flemington Hokie 04/04/24 09:03 AM ET
Agree. Add 2 years at Miami OH. KB % fell a lot at VT

No, my #1 priority is to win the conference which usually means you have to

Is anybody’s record against UConn great,… KB’s record against…
ombandit 04/04/24 06:37 AM ET
Yeah but he didn't play Iowa & LSU every year like Marquette does w/ UConn
UpstateSCHokie 04/04/24 06:45 AM ET
Beamer's record against and VT's for that matter against Miami was 0 for

Success is hosting regionals
MrFantastic! 04/04/24 07:26 AM ET
Yes and won the ACC. So yeah, that's a big difference from what Duffy has
UpstateSCHokie 04/04/24 07:27 AM ET
Not yet
MrFantastic! 04/04/24 08:54 AM ET
What was KB’s record against ND?**
HokieAllMyLife 04/04/24 07:24 AM ET
But who beats UConn, LSU and South Carolina?

UpstateSCHokie 04/04/24 07:16 AM ET
We won our league without beating ND under Brooks
hokiepro 04/04/24 07:24 AM ET
Yes but the difference is, he won the league. Duffy never did.
UpstateSCHokie 04/04/24 07:26 AM ET
Duffy still has a great resume
Hokie1992 04/04/24 08:11 AM ET
Difference here is that we should be able to draw better level of recruits
hokiepro 04/04/24 07:38 AM ET
There will be some rebuild time no matter what
j9hokie 04/04/24 08:13 AM ET
I hope you're right!
UpstateSCHokie 04/04/24 08:04 AM ET
I think she is about as good of a hire Whit could have made
Hokie83 04/04/24 08:09 AM ET
And again, I'm not complaining - just point out a couple of minor areas
UpstateSCHokie 04/04/24 08:15 AM ET
Don’t know if that would be a red flag for me, but I understand your logic-
ombandit 04/04/24 06:59 AM ET
They won one! That’s NOT bad for that league
hokiepro 04/04/24 06:52 AM ET
Also, the last time Marquette won the BE tournament was the yr before Duffy
UpstateSCHokie 04/04/24 07:00 AM ET
You’re right, terrible hire-LOL**
ombandit 04/04/24 08:13 AM ET
I never said that.**
UpstateSCHokie 04/04/24 08:14 AM ET
I am glad we have a coach, and one that looks promising as well.
goatdriver 04/04/24 08:03 AM ET
They should hire Lindsey Hicks
