Congrats to Co!

I hope she gets a good assistant to help with clock management.

I'm surprised that they went with a candidate who has no head coaching experience, but delighted for Coquese and thrilled for the kids playing basketball at Penn State University.

The road ahead won't be easy, but my guess is that by the end of next season Coquese will have won over all but Rene's most ardent supporters.

Coquese should have this program contending for the B10 championship again in a hurry.

I was afraid of this! I saw this on another board Friday.

Co will be good for PSU. Plus, she knows the law!

Huh. A combo of two of my three most despised programs. Double the booing! Well, I wish her success -- just not all that much.

Great for Co !!!!!


This could be bad for ND , McGraw struggled when she lost the likes of Owens and Mcguff a few years back.


ND is looking good in the Assistant Coaches becoming Head Coaches catagory.

Within the last 5 years:

McGuff-Xavier
Owens-Northern Illinois
Washington - Penn State.

Figured Co would get a shot somewhere(especially with the large numbers of openings)

Good for her and good for the program.

Interesting choice. Very likely PSU did not have to pay a lot to get her, but they got someone non-controversial who will no doubt grow into the job.

well, good for her, bad for ND. I wish her all the success in the world (on and off the court), unless PSU is playing ND.

But it'll be interesting to see who ND gets now...

Great for Co, but I feel sad for NDs program, as they have lost a lot of great asst. coaches of late that I think has hurt them a little. I guess that is the price of success and having such a great head coach.

[bballfan2005]

Great hire for Penn State. Wow, I might have to cheer for them this season.
