More celebrity sightings

It's colder than hell here, but I did meet Teresa Weatherspoon today. She's really nice, and is (not surprisingly) on the recruiting trail.

I also just saw Lin Dunn kicking it in the lounge area of this same hotel. At one point she put her feet up on the table and was texting someone.

There are so many tall people walking around this fine city right now that it makes me laugh. For a basketball fan, this is Hollywood.

Hey Sue,

LB State is announcing new coach on Tuesday afternoon at 3pm PDT. I would assume anyone in St Louis isnt going to be picked. So who's not there?

As for Trakh, I was told he met with the AD today and I have not yet heard a decision. I will post here if I hear anything.

Jody will have a tough road ahead as next year she has 8 seniors. However, that may work in her favor if she wants to build the team in her way.

I guess his meeting didnt go well with Garrett.
It would have been hard for him to recruit assistants knowing that his tenure at USC was in question.
I am glad at least for Jody and Derek to get the chance.

I am guessing that Lisa Leslie somehow winds up doing something with the team.
