All public figures are subject to criticism. Sometimes it is very critical, sometimes very minor. Coach Whiting’s has been very light.

Easy for negative pundits on CougarBoard to "rate" & "downgrade" Coach Whiting

Coach Whiting and her staff are building this program and they will get the

Calling out CB for something that isn't happening is reaching. Pls show sources.

Amen! The success of the program has nothing to do with the head coach!

That's not what I said & you know it - I don't appreciate you twisting my words

Who are you even arguing against? Everything I've ever seen is almost all positive about her.

RdF3

There has been some hard criticism about her, especially with her HS background

I haven't seen her or the program mentioned in days.

Exactly. Everyone knows she hasn’t met expectations but not all her fault

What do you mean that she hasn’t met expectations? They were picked 13th

Hope she can build it. Hopefully, the 2 new transfers help but their shooting

Does anyone know what really went down with Falatea?

If you're all-state and from 3A, I get it.

I have supported Whiting since Day 1 & still do. She has struggled some adapting

Do you have a link to reference? Guess I may have missed it.

Wait a minute. I thought CB did not care about women's basketball?

Posts like this are so strange. ANY coach ANYWHERE is going to have some detractors. I'm sure even SC's coach has some

Her team is in big trouble next season if they can’t get more and capable bigs.

So true. Big12 has some big ladies… we don’t need ISU’s big, but Gustin’s build with more height

She's struggled (as expected), but she needs more time. Her recruiting continues to impress.

SinkingQuffa

She definitely made a splash with her first recruiting class

Her claiming of Gibb from the yewts was a pretty big deal. Yewts are legit under Roberts

I like her. Also haven't seen the criticism. Also, why is none of the turnover

Because she had to start 2 Freshman guards right away because the 2 starters

My problem with your comment is that the program was already built.

Are these negative pundits in the room with you now? Haven't heard them.

I know nothing about how she'll do here but I have a question for you.

Mitty

Apr 29, 9:22pm

Yes. She often played her starters at the end of blowouts. Made no sense

VirginiaPeanut

When she did try subbing the other team went on runs.

In fact, vast majority of us were confused by this post it's been so light. I'm sure she's a big girl & can handle it

I just hope her leading scorer next year can shoot more than 50% FTs.

I hope they all improve to the 80's. Seriously improve.

I think generally I'm pretty fair to her. I'm not overly pessimistic. You can

Kalani and Pope have both seen large numbers of transfers out at times
