UDWBB 24/25

While some are calling for Coach Williams-Jeter to be fired, for several reasons, that's not going to happen- at least not in the immediate future. Although in many ways she has earned much of the criticism being thrown at her. She has yet to prove she can recruit impactful payers whether they be from high school or the portal. As of this date five new players will join the program for the 24/25 season; three from high schools and two transfers. The high schoolers are obviously unknown talents but do have good credentials, One of the transfers was the 6th player on the Ivy league champs, and has one season remaining. The other is from Boston College where due to injury, she missed her first year, and should have four seasons remaining. Most of the returnees have yet to prove anything other than they know how to turn it over. One of the returning players, Eve Fiala, is a good example of the uncertainty that surrounds this program. Eve from Pa. was hyped as a 6.6 recruit that had offers from many schools in power 5 conferences. However, when she arrived on Dayton's campus, she was referred to as a project, and unfortunately played that way. As usual, time will tell for this staff, but time could be running out.

Coaching Changes

Seems there is a Twitter/X account called Coaching Changes. Well, they posted something this afternoon that they were told that Anthony Grant will likely retire at the end of the year.
Don't know who the they is that has the account and also don't know who has this inside information about Grant leaving.

What has happened?

Anyone with inside info on what has happened with this team? This isn't remotely close to the team we saw in November and early December. Are players jealous of NIL payments to certain teammates? Someone get with someone's girlfriend? You just don't regress like this during a season without something "extra" happening. I honestly can't stand watching this team. Their effort is awful.

Big East

Hi Everyone……I’m new to the board. I’m a UCONN grad and of course I bleed blue. But the Flyers are my second favorite program. I know you guys must have had 100 Dayton to the Big East threads. But the week before last Val Ackerman announced she will begin negotiating a new media deal with Fox in the coming months. I would assume that expansion is coming soon. I would be really disappointed if the Flyers don’t get the invite. Dayton has the pedigree, tradition and a rabid fan base. ST. Louis may bring a new media market but that is it. Dayton’s brand is way superior to ST. Louis’s. Question, what is Dayton’s relationship with Xavier? I know the fan bases are rivals. But would Xavier endorse you guys being added?
