Robin Fralick - Ashland Eagles Women's Bball Coach

[threestooges]

Hockey John - you can count on one hand the people who were disappointed with the firing of Roos. Including Roos - it’s you and the Three Stooges.

(Before I start ------ Yes, I foolishly checked this site one more time)

I don't believe I ever said I was disappointed with the firing of Roos. I think she's a great person and did a great job in terms of recruiting high-quality young women, being a very productive member of the campus and the community, etc. However, I totally understand Moose's reasoning for letting her go. If you're not going to extend her contract, you can't have her coaching next year. It would simply kill recruiting.

What I DID say was I'm sick of the TMZ "My girlfriend's cousin's best friend said that Ferris passed out at 31 Flavors" bullsh!t that some people seem to enjoy. A well-connected high-rolling Falcon Club donor predicted a press conference last week because Moose and Fralick allegedly were seen on campus. How'd that turn out? Maybe she'll get the job, maybe she won't, but I believe if there had been a press conference or a hiring, we'd have heard about it somewhere.

Also, maybe I'm a little paranoid because we've had coaching candidates back out before. In 2001, one of the candidates (can't remember his name, but he was the head coach at Emporia State during a time when they were very successful) was interviewed for the BG job, then backed out because word got out in Kansas that he was interviewing. BGSU wound up hiring its third or fourth choice for the job.

And yes, that third or fourth choice turned out to be Curt Miller, and he turned out to be a tremendous hire. Maybe the third or fourth choice during this coaching search will wind up getting the job, and maybe that person will also be a great coach. But, I'd love it if people would stop the rampant speculation and rumors. Since I appear to be in the minority on that front, I will now stop posting and let everyone share their "inside information" that they heard from their "connections" because they "donate $25,000 a year" and have "attended several women's basketball practices in the last few years". Happy Easter.

Sigh. I wonder of any of ;you can read. The job was posted with a final submission date of 3/31/2018. Moose is in Columbus to conduct interviews this weekend. A press conference room is reserved for NEXT Wednesday. Logic would dictate that the decision is going to be made and the new coach introduced on 4/4

If it is Robyn, I'm interested to see who stays, who she recruits, and how we play., Come to think of it, I'm just hoping that BG can return to the glory. And, while we're talking BG hoops, what about Fran Voll and Jaci Clark? What were they;, chopped liver?

I agree with your second paragraph, and I have a degree from BGSU, so I can read a little bit. But, someone on this board was very confident that an announcement was going to be made LAST Wednesday, and that did not happen. Enjoy your Easter, everyone.

Booking a press conference room before you have a coach is one of the most ridiculous sports things I've ever heard. That's an organic thing that happens after the hire.

So...if there's a press conference this Wednesday instead of last Wednesday...will that make you feel superior?

Robyn Fralick gave an on-court presentation at the Womens College Basketball Association Conference this past Saturday in Columbus.
Interestingly, the topic was "Pressure Defense".

Yes.

Well...as long as you're happy...

[Falcon Commander]

She's IN !

[gmartin]

Can I say I told you so. Well I am.

Awesome hire!!

And threestooges was so close on that Wednesday wish... Better luck next time

Actually I knew all along it was going to be Fralick. I posted that the day Roos was fired and sent a letter too Moose with three weeks remaining in the season to have him look into Fralick. I am the one that said BG would hire a coach last Wednesday. I had knowledge that Frallick was on campus, not once, not twice but three separate days. I told an announcement would been made last Wednesday. Unfortunately that was the news that Santoro was not coming back. So I am the one that misspoke. Regardless a home run higher. If you have the time just Google Robyn Twitter feed. Look at what everybody is saying about her.

In fact, a news conference is planned for Wednesday to introduce Fralick.

Wednesday? Awesome...win/win!!

So I'm not exactly sure what you mean by your last sentence, because the press conference is indeed going to be on Wednesday, and I will always feel superior, no matter who BG hires or what day a press conference is held.

Way to go. I'm not saying you DIDN'T know all along it was going to be Fralick. BUT, don't act like you gave Moose the idea. I'm guessing he and Lauren Ashman knew about a national-championship winning coach located less than two hours away, who has coached a game against BG at the Stroh Center within the last three years. I'm guessing they were aware of her existence even before your letter to Moose.

I probably didn't need to come across as angry as my post from a few days ago came across. I just get annoyed when people act like they're better or smarter than they actually are, or act like they're better or smarter than the rest of us are.

Let's just all agree that Fralick appears to be a very good hire, and that this will hopefully be a great thing for the future of BGSU women's basketball. Can we agree on that?
