Suzie Merchant wins a showdown with Marlene Stollings for arguably the #1 2016 prospect out of Minnesota, Nia Hollie, out of powerhouse Hopkins High school. Hollie is a 5'11 wing.

Maryland gets a BIG verbal from Destiny Slocum, Class of 2016!

ESPN ranked #4 overall in Class; #2 at PG position.

http://espn.go.com/high-school/girls-basketball/recruiting/player/_/id/191032/destiny-slocum

With Lexie Brown gone, and Pavlach and Mosely both starting their final year of eligibility this season, the PG position was wide open for 2016. Looks like Brenda will be turning over the keys to Destiny as soon as she arrives on campus a year from now.

Great pick up by Coach B! This could really help Terps stay competitive with the rest of top tier. Without a strong PG, that would be almost impossible. Whew, I am both happy and relieved. Very Happy



Maryland's 2016 class is loaded!!

While hugely disappointing for the Gophers and also Marlene not being able to keep a MN player home.... this text is ridiculous and embarrassing. Mad

It's to Stollings credit that Minny was a finalist. Michigan state and others were recruiting This Kid for 4 years and Borton never was in the picture. Stollings came on late but came on strong. That bodes well for Minny, I think.

Five-star recruit Lamina Cooper didn't enroll at Purdue and won't be part of the program. Another stellar day for Versyp's team.

Minnesota's coach Marlene Stollings receives a contract extension. http://blogs.twincities.com/gophers/2015/08/25/gophers-basketball-richard-pitino-and-marlene-stollings-receive-extensions-and-raises/

Pretty early for a new deal but they did make the tourney for the first time in a while.

Interesting that the article's author indicated that Stollings commented on this kid's commitment. The rule has always been that nothing could be said about anyone until they sign their NLI. I don't think that has changed but I guess it could have.

She averaged 16.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.1 steals and 2.9 rebounds as a junior last season.


I'm guessing that second rebound stat is actually assists. Looks like a shoot first point guard. What are her turnover stats?

They already fixed it: Correction: An editing error previously attributed this information to Gophers coach Marlene Stollings, rather than Hubbard's tweet.

Something tells me they got a very insistent call from the UM SID's office. (Which is exactly what should have happened.)

^ Exactly. Glad they fixed it. The NCAA would have had a major issue with her being credited with those comments.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The University of Michigan and women's basketball head coach Kim Barnes Arico have agreed to a three-year contract extension, interim Donald R. Shepherd Director of Athletics Jim Hackett announced on Monday (Sept. 28 ). The extension will keep Barnes Arico at Michigan through the 2020-21 season.

"When I came to Michigan three years ago, I really believed it was a place my family and I would be at for a long time," Barnes Arico said. "I left a top 20 program and the region I grew up in because I believed in the vision of Michigan, everything it has to offer its student-athletes and its commitment to excellence. It has been such a privilege to work at the best university in the world, where I am surrounded by greatness each and every day. My time here so far has been tremendous and I have received an incredible amount of support from the University, the community and athletic department."

"I know what an outstanding coach we have in Kim and I'm thrilled to get this extension in place," said Hackett. "Kim has done a fantastic job of developing students both academically and athletically."

P.S. It should be noted that this is the 1st contract extension ever given to a WBB coach at Michigan.

Three year conference record in a mediocre WBB conference:

2012-13 : 9-7, 5th place
2013-14 : 8-10, 8th place
2014-15 : 8-10, 8th place

Sure sounds deserving of a raise and extension to me. Rolling Eyes

How exactly has her record been an improvement over Borseth's?

I wonder if Mich would have given a raise to a MBB or FB or Hockey coach with that performance.

Rutgers has announced that the NCAA did not grant Alexis Burke a waiver for an additional (sixth) year of eligibility after her injury, but that she will stay with the program as a graduate assistant manager.

While I'm sorry about this, in reality I don't think it's a huge loss, as she didn't ever get a lot of minutes even when she was healthy. I am glad she's going to be around, though, and her comments make it sound like she's reconciled to the situation.

Here's the press release: You're a coach now

You might as well get the numbers right for 13-14.

Borseth wasn't granted an extension after year three. He was under a previous A.D., so it's kind of a moot issue. Considering the big dip he took in year two, I wouldn't have considered taking the risk after year three either.

Borseth's first three years:

2007-08 19-14 9-9 #7 seed WNIT Quarterfinal
2008-09 10-20 3-15 #11 seed (ended w/8 straight losses)
2009-10 21-14 8-10 #7 seed WNIT Semifinal

Barnes Arico's:
2012-13 22-11 9-7 #5 seed NCAA, 2nd Round
2013-14 20-14 8-8 #7 seed WNIT, 3rd Round
2014-15 20-15 8-10 #8 seed* WNIT, semifinals

Seed is for Big Ten Tournament.
*BIG increased to 14 teams
