As a serious top coach? No. As a gimmick? Sure.

Ask yourself why any of the female coaches at the pinnacle of women’s basketball don’t make the transition? Guess the question is, why? They are successful in competitive programs.

There are top female coaches that could compete, but won’t be considered for the best of programs. So then why not be at the top of their profession in women’s basketball where they do quite fine financially?

I understand what you are saying. But, I know a few people that went on it these drugs. They lost weight for the first time in their life. Their mental outlook became brighter, no longer depressed and actually started to workout. They became more confident. I think you are underselling the value of these drugs. And let’s face it, people are weak to resist the foods that hold them captured. These drugs are helpful for sure.

Ok, so it’s helping a few people short term, but we don’t know the long term effects from staying on the drug, and unless they change their eating habits and exercise plan long term, they will just yo yo and gain it back. And if you lose the weight, but still a crapshoot with all of those other health risks.

We need to invest in education early on in life. Instead of all this goofy stuff educators want to focus on.

Bottom line is that healthcare costs up by 8% so let’s see if the costs go back down based on your theory. I’ll take the bet that they won’t. The drug is $1,600/month - $20,000/year.

the darn trailer was emotional!

seriously....that is going to be some "must see" movie...talk about a study in courage...and having a lasting impact on the world.....wow.

Why does anyone really care? Best candidates should get the job regardless of their sex. Has any male coach ever gotten a job over a more qualified female in men’s college basketball? If so shame on them but I see this as end of August we need to write about something.

Yeah, but, every flight is well over an hour+ (WVU) and some are six hours. And there will be no bus rides to SJ, PC, SHU, NOVA to break up the travel requirements. Hey the hoops players are getting paid so that’s the deal but all the non revenue/no NIL athletes making those flights, many I would imagine are non charter, will be difficult. But nobody cares about them.

Yeah, I agree with this. It sucks. It doesn't suck so much that we wouldn't take the extra money and deal with it, but it definitely sucks.
