BYU's new women's head coach: Amber Whiting

Does her daughter cancel her Oregon commit and come to BYU now?

Indy Coug

5/18/22 4:15pm

That was my question. That is a huge jump to go from HS to D1 soon-

Thrill

5/18/22 4:17pm

Definitely is a big jump. I'm shocked by this hire

palangi

5/18/22 4:21pm

Shockingly shocked maybe shows Tom thinks about WBB, heading into the B12

OC Coug

5/18/22 4:32pm

It’s huge, and very unlike Byu as they’ve turned down others in lower profile

Maybe if she coached a national runner up team 2x

JoeExotic

5/18/22 6:17pm

Yeah Burley HS is not Butler, but BYU women's basketball is not the Celtics

cwilke1

5/18/22 8:53pm

I have nothing against the hire

JoeExotic

5/18/22 9:04pm

BYU ended 21-22 regular season with a bang (great last home game vs. Zags)

cwilke1

5/18/22 9:18pm

Still a big 12 program

JoeExotic

5/18/22 9:31pm

Well if CB is any indicator of interest in WBB, there's nothing anyone can do to fix it short of turning it over to men.

Soupie

Hiring an effective HC for women is a bit trickier than for men. For one thing,

SinkingQuffa

5/18/22 5:00pm

shaylee laid a big egg in the tournament this year, so early exit falls on her

cwilke1

5/18/22 5:04pm

She's really struggled w shooting since her knee. Doesn't get the lift or push

SinkingQuffa

5/18/22 5:06pm

You are assuming the hire was based off the daughter and the daughter will

ColonelMustard

5/18/22 11:47pm

I can see how you could get that from my post. That's not what I meant.

SinkingQuffa

5/19/22 6:50am

I think she has some recruiting prowess already. She might be coaching hs

Superman21

5/18/22 9:06pm

She hasn't started there yet. I'll bet she ends up at the Y now

Cougarman

5/18/22 4:17pm

I don't think she's arrived on campus or taken classes yet, has she?

SinkingQuffa

5/18/22 4:18pm

No she hasn't yet. She is still finishing up her Sr year at Burley HS

Cougarman

5/18/22 4:28pm

Sounds like she is a jr. in high school

gwill

5/18/22 4:35pm

Jr. Year—Still has Sr. Year to go

Congrats Timpview, Provo or Timpanogos for getting a legit D1 talent next season.

Turnpike Lane

5/18/22 5:25pm

I'd bet Timpview. The other 3 programs aren't good and TV head coach is an all

palangi

5/18/22 5:58pm

What position does the daughter play?

Pergamino

5/18/22 4:19pm

PG, similar game to Shaylee, but probably a better shooter from 3

Thrill

5/18/22 4:24pm

That would be a smooth transition from Shaylee when she leaves

Pergamino

5/18/22 4:45pm

She's the type of recruit that plays instantly based on her national ranking.

Thrill

5/18/22 4:58pm

5'10" PG. Averaged 27 points, 11 rebounds, and 6 steals per game this year as a junior. Numbers were only a little less

RootieBoy

5/18/22 4:27pm

Yep, all while double and triple teamed, and trying to create for her team.

BikeGuy

5/18/22 6:42pm

Gotta assume the chances are a lil better now.

SinkingQuffa

5/18/22 4:18pm

I hope so.

IdahoCoug

5/18/22 4:18pm

Not sure if she will come, but Amari is Shaylee Gonzalez good, maybe better.

BYUCPA

5/18/22 4:25pm

Interesting language from the announcement:

Thrill

5/18/22 4:46pm

Not allowed to mention it where she is still a recruitable player/not signed.

RootieBoy

5/18/22 4:51pm

That's quite the jump for her.

Soupie

5/18/22 4:25pm

HUGE jump imo...hoping for the best

coug10278

5/18/22 4:29pm

On the surface is a really weird hire given other potential candidates

sidsie716

5/18/22 4:26pm

How often does high School coach to P5 coach work out?

LiveCoug

5/18/22 4:27pm

This is potentially a great hire by Holmoe. Coach Whiting is much more

WallaX2

5/18/22 4:27pm

And she is now about to matchup with some of the best WBB coaches in the entire

OC Coug

5/18/22 4:34pm

I support her even though the lack of college coaching experience makes you

Forzaitalia

5/18/22 7:30pm

They have a son just home from a mission signed to play basketball at Boise State

StantonMac

5/18/22 4:36pm

The son is good but not BYU good, he prolly won’t start at boise state till

SdogRanger_4

5/18/22 4:37pm

I’m not so sure about this hire 😬

SdogRanger_4

5/18/22 4:36pm

Wow.

ProvoSoprano

5/18/22 4:46pm

Agree big jump, but heavily involved in the AAU circuit which is a plus.

gp232

5/18/22 4:49pm

It's not like BYU is hiring some high school PE teacher who had to coach girls' basketball because

ManicBlue

5/18/22 5:14pm

and she is the coach of top AAU Idaho team which has placed players into D1 ball

cwilke1

5/18/22 5:18pm

But a little school in Idaho? Her husband work there and no other options? Why

sfeuz

5/18/22 6:23pm

but did you see how bad that team was and how quickly she turned them around? Nothing short of amazing IMO

ManicBlue

5/18/22 8:51pm

Definitely not a little school in Idaho

NashEquilibrium

5/18/22 9:10pm

Trust Liz Dager to hire the best. She's brilliant & Liz herself was hired out of nowhere. Lucky for BYU.

roseyscenario

5/18/22 5:17pm

Feels like a reach. Could be brilliant or a disaster. Its a bold move. I hope

BostonCougar

5/18/22 10:42pm

Seems to me she can coach, knows the AAU circuit so will be able to recruit. Let's see what she can do.

Turnpike Lane

5/18/22 5:20pm

Trent's wife?

porl thompson

5/18/22 5:39pm

if only clicking the link OP posted and looking at the article could answer that for you...

molodyets

5/18/22 5:44pm

We will now refer to Trent as Amber's husband

JoeExotic

5/18/22 6:19pm

So she’s the one that made the infamous casserole?

cougarblue

5/18/22 11:09pm

I had forgotten about that!

IdahoCoug

5/18/22 11:57pm

What’s this story?

Soupie

5/19/22 12:09am

He was interviewed on a local news station and mentioned how he couldn't
