What?! How dare you question Tara the Great! It's a Stanford truism that she's a "great" coach. News flash: she's ok. Not terrible, not great. Put another way: great recruiter (in the women's game, how much of that is her versus the university though?), meh coach. The overall record is of course really good, but how many more national titles do we have if Geno is our coach during these last decades. I think a bunch. I was saying all week that I thought we'd lose to UConn because the gap between Geno and Tara is so big. Ok, I'll leave before I get tarred and feathered...
I'm sorry, but this is kind of a $h!t post. You're an a$h@le to post that about Tara. It's fu%#ING false and you know it.
And by the way, are you happy that you were right? it sounds like you are. if so, good for you. enjoy our loss if it proves whatever point you were trying to make. I for one am heartbroken, but I feel nothing but love for Tara and the team. Unlike you, it seems.
Look at how many posts the poster has and when they registered.
Don’t feed the trolls.
Your reaction is exactly what they were going for.

Hmm, I'm an alum and season ticketholder on the men's side. And former varsity athlete (not basketball). Yes, joined in April last year and have been moderately active in some of the football and men's basketball discussions. You all are almost a self-parody you're so far up in Tara's mythology. Do you actually watch the games or just look at the win-loss record? People roast Shaw (deservedly so lately but that's a diff issue) and other coaches on here but apparently Tara is above criticism? I've never thought she was a great in-game or x's-and-o's coach. Go back and read the in-game discussion and then think about it. They lost this game in part because Tara didn't make the right adjustments and didn't steady the team. In other words, they got out-coached. Shocker.
