What lies ahead....?

Bringing in Walseth did absolutely nothing last year to move things forward. She was an awful 11-18, anyone can go 11 and 18. If she was even close to .500 I'd give her forgiveness. When Walseth allows/encourages Brooke LeMar to shoot 20-25 times a game at the expense of not understanding and not including how to make the other four girls on the court to be scorers/ shooters/threats/contributors to help the team win I was confused by her basketball logic to let LeMar make or break the team alone by putting all the eggs in one basket of a single player alone-This isn't the NBA, Brooke LeMar doesn't have the middle name of Steph, LeBron, or Kobe in it; I was pretty disappointed in our new coach's lack of understanding of basketball x's and o's at the mid major d1 level here. Hopefully Walseth can get at least close to .500 this year. Forget about recruiting in the next juco college superstar or chasing the next out of state player from god knows where. Any coach who understands basketball 101 should at least go .500 in this average mid major conference and can win with just the local talent in the Dakotas, MN, WI, IA..........it's not like we are playing in the Big Ten, or have I even seen a non conference heavyweight on the schedule yet..............Good luck this year girls and enjoy the fun-

Can I present the DeHoff years as a counter argument?? If you watched the team at all last year and compared to the previous 6 it was a very good step forward, Walseth has a ways to go though by all means. I liked her team's style of play better than DeHoff's. Plus she beat SDSU for first time in Fargo since like 10 years ago. In her first year. Like seeing a few promising recruits too!

There's none so blind as those who will not see.

Nearly doubled the previous years win total, and made a huge improvement in conference wins. (+5 IIRC). I'd say that's fairly significant for a first year head coach.

HimOleChief throwum Maren under bus.

Living in Colorado, I didn't see any games, so I can't comment specifically on that. But I do think you have to give a new coach at least a couple years. I'm hoping to see improvement every year, though...

The girls played hard last year and had fun. Under DeHoff they quick on her because she quit on them a couple years ago. Walserh is heading in the right direction. I am not willing to throw her under the bus for first year 11-18 record. Beat sdsu went to overtime with und.

With all due respect, I can't help thinking that you might be an idiot.

The state of disrepair of the women's basketball program under DeHoff cannot be understated. It was BAD. Really, really bad.

I watched the ORU and SDSU games in Fargo last year and for the first time in a long time had fun. The team looked like a team. The coaches looked like coaches.
