What's frustrating is they have so many "half cooked" players. Piddock had 8 assists, she could have had Grace's record if anyone could make a basket. However, she shoots like she's blindfolded. Cunningham is a strong rebounder but an offensive liability. Croker like Lee blossomed late but she fouls too much. Tompkins will play some D but should never touch the basketball. Tarul makes herself unplayable when she's missing threes because of her turnovers and lousy defense. Corsentino is invisible 3 out of every 4 games and then looks like a real prospect in that 4th game. Not sure why Robbins or Rife can't get any kind of showcase, I can only assume they're just that bad. Giving minutes to Erin Fox is like playing 4 on 5. Piddock had more mistakes than assists, she can not see the floor and she is so slow bring the ball up the court. She is the worst passer in the MAAC. Your right about Tarul. Corsention is a freshman and she is learning the game but it's tough to learn the game with the teachers they have. Don't expect the freshmen coming in next to bail you out with this staff. I don't expect any better results next year. Maybe worse unless they start out with some better Coaching.

She brings the call up to slow and can't pass the call. I believe your opinion about Tarul. Corsentino is a freshmen who is just learning the game with bad teachers. Don't expect the 2 Freshmen coming in next year will make a difference. What you need is a change in staff that knows how to coach. As the yer went on they got worse scoring 49 and 42 points a game. I don t anything will change the next to years unless there is a change in the Staff. Maybe worse if that is possible.

Ridiculous if you think someone should be let go after one year. Shes got 3 years. Just improve. TBH - I think they're better without Shazer.

They're averaging 45 ppg the last 2 games without her (plus an OT loss to Saint Peter's that is probably a W if she plays the 2nd half) so I have to disagree.

No they still can’t make shots but as a team the flow seems much better. They seem to be running an offense. Before Zaria has been the 1st 2nd and 3rd option and then it became one on one with her getting a shot off no matter what. (Zaria best player on team but at same time she could stymie others growth)
Lee has done well in the paint (where she should be)
The only way they get better of learn how to shoot and shoot consistently.
We need some new talent - on paper it sure appears that Williamson is one - need others to come from portal.

I'm at the point where I'm convinced Coach E needs to have Gallagher and Gillespie clear out their desks, maybe Langley too but "non-recruiting assistant coach" is just a fancy new way of saying DOBO.
ED herself needs and will get more time to figure this thing out.

No chance ….none …. zero that she is let go That's to bad. Why is this necessary. She inherited a roster that was not very good. Why did you expect her to turn everything in one year. She needs time to learn how to be head coach and get her own players.

I agree she should not be fired. But I would think she was positively involved in recruiting these players. Giorgos announced ahead of time he was leaving. I would think they worked together the last few recruiting classes.

I don’t completely agree with that. Yes she helped recruit these players but when the sophomores committed there was no guarantee she was the next head coach. So maybe so players she was recruiting decided to go elsewhere. Now she has full reigns, it’s different. I think no matter what the situation is, you still need give a coach 4 years (or at least 3)

I think the biggest obstacle is kids they go after also now have NIL offer attached to other schools

Just sayin - Marshall Thundering Heard has a brand that new first year coach from D2 and they just won their conference and a ticket to the tourney. She did not have 16 or so years of watching the master do his thing. She is just a really good coach.

What is your tie to Marshall - you have mentioned her 4 times - what is your point? That one school made a good choice - there are 360 teams in D1, that is a lucky hire just like Giorgis was. Also we don't pay a women's basketball coach as much as she is making (until they win 10 MAAC titles - you need to remember Giorgis is the exception to many many rules)
She earned this shot - and if she fails then we can do the nation wide search. Marist is NOT an attractive destination in most cases. Low budge,t no NIL, no overseas
