In my experience, you don't have to be an ******* to be a great coach, but every great coach is an *******. Also, not every ******* is a great coach. That is actually a very accurate observation, show me a players coach and I will show you a loser nine times out of 10, the one out of 10 that does experience success is unable to sustain it.

Softball has never won an AAC softball championship and only one in the Big East (2013) with the great Sara Nevins. I know this isn't everyone's interest, but for us fans it's very frustrating. But it does have Six Conference Championships. Only one Conference Tournament Championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it is true, but I always thought that Dabo was a player's coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of those things that probably depends on one's definition of a "players' coach". Frisco's apparently involves a players coach not being an *******. I'm not sure what it means ....

He does not recruit any big hitters. It does no good to play an OOC schedule if we get run ruled all the time and can't even be competitive. Now Moore is leaving. I actually thought they were starting to come around last year with her as interim coach with everything stopped. I wish they would go out and hire someone like Mike Smith who was run out of Ole Miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also am not sure what being an ******* has to do with being a great coach. I don't think they are in any way mutually exclusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the same can apply here as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jonesy Bull Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I don't think him being a "players coach" or not is the issue. It was brought up earlier in the thread that he doesn't like to do the Recruiting part of the job, that he leaves that to his Assistants. I don't know if that is true or not, but if it is then that's a problem. It's a part of the job description. Maybe or maybe not contractually, but certainly as the right thing to do as part of the job. Wouldn't the National Coach of USA team coming into a top recruits home make a difference in deciding whether to come to USF as opposed to sending one of his Assistants? Umm yeah, if true, we could be a much better program imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played Arizona twice this weekend and got run ruled. Right now UCF is beating Arizona 2 to 0 finishing up the top of the 6th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
