She is coming back as an assistant as is another previous head coach from the SEC. Looks like a decent staff. Looks like Brooks will be playing for Staley.

Brooks is going to NC State.She is coming back as an assistant as is another previous head coach from the SEC. Looks like a decent staff. Looks like Brooks will be playing for Staley.
Pretty sure it is Nikki McCray. Staff is looking all over at point guards. Some local.Stephanie White.
Terri Williams Flournoy already got hired by psu.
Where are you hearing this from? Can’t find anything online. Who are you hearing for the third assistant spot?She is coming back as an assistant as is another previous head coach from the SEC. Looks like a decent staff. Looks like Brooks will be playing for Staley.
Another blown opportunity within almost walking distance to RAC. Damn you Dawn Staley. She is stacked with talent. Glad I like, and super respect her.Brooks is going to NC State.
Richard shares when he can, so be patient.Where are you hearing this from? Can’t find anything online. Who are you hearing for the third assistant spot?
We could use some good news!She is coming back as an assistant as is another previous head coach from the SEC. Looks like a decent staff. Looks like Brooks will be playing for Staley.
The coach of NC State is Wes Moore, not Staley. Now he has Brooks and Diamond Johnson. Dawn is at South Carolina.Another blown opportunity within almost walking distance to RAC. Damn you Dawn Staley. She is stacked with talent. Glad I like, and super respect her.
Don't get what you are sayin. I know where he coaches, and where Staley is at. I was talking about Zoe Brooks, being so close to the RAC.The coach of NC State is Wes Moore, not Staley. Now he has Brooks and Diamond Johnson. Dawn is at South Carolina.
RU 72 says above that Zoe Brooks is playing for Staley and she is not. I just wanted to make sure that is clear. That’s all.Don't get what you are sayin. I know where he coaches, and where Staley is at. I was talking about Zoe Brooks, being so close to the RAC.
It was late May when the Assistant Coach search started. No good options would be available. Does that just about sum up your original position ?We could use some good news!
Actually no. Your position was the late start was not a big deal. My position was the late start limited the pool of potential candidates. I never said we could not end up with a good coach or good assistants. Our entire discussion revolved around whether the late start was a disadvantage.It was late May when the Assistant Coach search started. No good options would be available.

I wonder if UVA (her alma mater) wishes they had hired her…lucky chickens!Another blown opportunity within almost walking distance to RAC. Damn you Dawn Staley. She is stacked with talent. Glad I like, and super respect her.
I'm wondering why RU isn't announcing the hire(s)?Richard shares when he can, so be patient.
I’m thinking they are either waiting until the staff is complete or their contracts are finalized and approved.I'm wondering why RU isn't announcing the hire(s)?
Could be Hobbs is in talks with Tasha , but nothing settled yet and until settled, not hired yet
Same goes for the former SEC coach that someone implied hired.
If either Tasha or the ex SEC coach was hired , Hobbs needs to announce it so positive news about the program can be shared with its fans.
The secrecy surrounding the RU WBB program over the coaching search now > if hiring assistant(s) true < and at the end of Stringer's tenure is making the fanbase's perception of the WBB program more of a mess ( in my opinion) than there should be once CVS retired and CW was hired.
How hard can it be to announce assistants were hired, if they were?
The AD has very little to do with “hiring” assistants. They provide budget and do background searches and cursory “handshake” interviews.I'm wondering why RU isn't announcing the hire(s)?

If Hobbs is in talks with Tasha…something is wrong/off. Assistants, in any sport, are the purview of the hired coach. That would be some ridiculous level of micromanaging.I'm wondering why RU isn't announcing the hire(s)?

Meant Hobbs needs to announce the hiring, if hired , not him being the one doing the hiring instead of CW.If Hobbs is in talks with Tasha…something is wrong/off. Assistants, in any sport, are the purview of the hired coach. That would be some ridiculous level of micromanaging.
In the abstract, I suppose. But Dawn was at South Carolina 3 years before Debbie Ryan retired, and 3 of Debbie's last 5 years featured over 20 wins, with NCAA appearances in each (2 2nd rounds, 1 first). Debbie was as much a legend as Vivian, clearly performing respectably, cancer survivor, etc.I wonder if UVA (her alma mater) wishes they had hired her…lucky chickens!

Typically, staffs take 3-4 weeks, 21-28 days. We are currently at day 18 since the HC was hired. It took Pikiell 22 days back in 2016.I'm wondering why RU isn't announcing the hire(s)?

edit: should have stated "Could be CW is in talks with Tasha",then complained about Hobbs not announcing the hire, if one was made .
I'm just frustrated thinking an assistant was hired and nothing announced 🤬
Yes about hindsight…is she headed to geno or pat numbers? Well who knows…but she’s a rung or ten aboveIn the abstract, I suppose. But Dawn was at South Carolina 3 years before Debbie Ryan retired, and 3 of Debbie's last 5 years featured over 20 wins, with NCAA appearances in each (2 2nd rounds, 1 first).

If Dawn was still at Temple when Debbie retired, I'm sure they would have looked at her. I don't think they were going to upend her after only 3 years at South Carolina, years she was building the program from under .500 to above .500.
But yes, hindsight being 20/20 I would imagine they wish.
I'm talking about being notified after the hire, not usual length of hunt.Typically, staffs take 3-4 weeks, 21-28 days. We are currently at day 18 since the HC was hired. It took Pikiell 22 days back in 2016.
Contracts being finalized probably is the reason, staff being completed seems a bit odd to hold off letting the fan base know CW brought in an assistant .I’m thinking they are either waiting until the staff is complete or their contracts are finalized and approved.
Do assistant coaches contracts need to be approved by the BOG like the head coaches contract?
Its not necessary to announce all the assistant coaches at the same time.Some positive news is needed now.Typically, staffs take 3-4 weeks, 21-28 days. We are currently at day 18 since the HC was hired. It took Pikiell 22 days back in 2016.
New contracts start July 1. They may be waiting to be closer to that along with getting full staff in place. Recruiting for top talent in 2022 is unfortunately done, though 2023 may be a late start.I’m thinking they are either waiting until the staff is complete or their contracts are finalized and approved.

why hold off announcing someone was hired., if in fact an assistant was?Wow, some people have gone from "Rutgers will never get good assistants this late" to "Rutgers is not announcing the good assistant hires fast enough".
There is always something to complain about for some people.
This would be the likely case of what's going on right now. Seems like a lag time between the time it's known to the time it's announced is common these days.If in the hiring stage and not completed yet , yes then it's better not to say someone was hired in case something gums up the works and candidate turns down job.
Who said the hire was finalized ? That's when you announce something. You don't announce, "We expect to hire Coach XXX, she just needs to sign the contract".why hold off announcing someone was hired., if in fact an assistant was?
With the state RU WBB is in now , good news should be put out ASAP if only to settle down a fanbase that has seen mostly negatives and not feeling so good about how the program is looking.

True what you said, I took this as a done deal:Who said the hire was finalized ? That's when you announce something. You don't announce, "We expect to hire Coach XXX, she just needs to sign the contract".
Seriously? Sure Sue is going to give up her business to lend her out-of-date basketball experience to this mess…that’ll work just dandy! 😆😆😆How about hiring Sue Wicks, Patti Coyle, or even Theresa Grentz as an assistant.
Bingo, I think we have a winner.New contracts start July 1. They may be waiting to be closer to that along with getting full staff in place. Recruiting for top talent in 2022 is unfortunately done, though 2023 may be a late start.
