Sheryl Swoopes facing a team mutiny

Even if the complaints are not justified, how do you keep a coach if 83.3 percent of the players bolt?

 

Depends what kind of buyout is on the contract.

If the investigation scrubbed Swoopes clean and the buyout is hefty, the administration might say, "what the hell, suck it up for (whatever is left on her contract) and if she goes 3-28, so be it."

In any case if she was cleared in an investigation, she'd probably be nothing but sunshine and cookies for the rest of her tenure.

 

Buyout, in a Women's DI shitty basketball job? She gets a souvenir cup and 2 hats

 

Ehhh, Swoopes was a celebrity of sorts. Unless Loyola can document she was chaining these girls to pillars in the basement and whipping 'em with rubber hoses, they'll probably have to pay a year or two's salary.

If the evidence of abuse was semi-inconclusive, they might roll the dice she could straighten it out, and if she doesn't, then let her walk.

A school like that just doesn't have the $$ to buy anybody out for more than a year, I'd think. But how will anybody put together a Division I roster at this late date?

 

Well, they won't, as I described above; it would be a patchwork mess at best. The best thing to hope for would be to bring in a couple semi-decent upperclass transfers to hold the whole thing together and one or two decent freshman recruits.

But if the coach (whoever it is), has scholarships to hand out, they can probably find somebody to take them.

What are the NCAA limitations on scholie numbers in the case of mass desertions?

 

The same thing happened at Oregon State five years ago. Players started transferring out because they were tired of the coach's verbal abuse. They had maybe two players return. The new coach had tryouts, brought a player or two with him from Division III George Fox and they made the Final Four this year.

 

Could this be as big as the Winona State scandal?

 

Tracy Morgan will play her in the biopic. It will be the O in his EGOT.

 

Too good looking
