Argumentum Absurdum
Taking things I did say and stretching them far beyond their intent to intentionally deceive or lie about what someone's points were.
I never said she wasn't a good player, I said she was not a great all around player because as she even admitted after graduating she did not put much effort into defense under Curry. Gearlds was a pretty good shooter, no doubts about it, but if you don't play both ends of the floor you really aren't a great player IMO.
I still think she was a very lazy hire made by an AD that doesn't care about women's basketball and I still think she lacked the experience for this job. I am not yet convinced. I hope she continues to do well, but we shall see in a couple of years.
I did not say she would not be able to recruit Indiana, what I said was she likely did not have the connections and reputation some of her rabid fans on here ascribed to her for being an NAIA coach or from her playing career 15 years ago or so.
I did state I worried about her ability to hire staff because of her lack of connections in D1 ball, and her first year it seemed to bear out as she retained two of the former staff (who if not complicit in the abuse scandal turned a blind eye to it) and her only hires were internal or from Marion. I am very happy with the two new coaches, and only a little disappointed that we are once again going into the season without all the staff we could have.
I am more than willing to have an honest and open debate. I will not let your lies stand unchallenged however. IF you think you know so much, lets see your prediction for this season in that thread.
