I would go with promoting Julie Meyer, who has paid her dues under both Larissa and Jay. Also will help with stability.

Sara Michalowski Marino just got a promotion to Assoc. Head Coach at Mizzou, so I'd take her name off the list.

Probably to prevent her from taking Hofstra job…too bad.

It won't be Hofstra alum and former East Carolina head coach Courtney Oliver, who was name an associate head coach at Houston today. My money is still on Julie Meyer being promoted when all is said and done.

Who has got any inside info. here. This has such great history here and we need to move forward and get the right coach to bring back our winning tradition.

What do you all think of the hiring of alum Adrienne Clark? Her resume seems to be very impressive.

This sounds like a very solid hire here really bringing back experience coaches who have a history here as players. Lets keep things in house and that could be the precedent that's now setting the tone moving forward. Let us get back to greatness here with this proud program.

Very solid hire. She has certainly paid her dues as an assistant and I'm excited to see her hopefully grow her alma mater back to greatness.
