Very very odd. She has done wonders for the UK womens team. Perhaps she will be moving on to a better womens basketball school? Several openings came up, we shall see.

I know she was friends with Tubby, do you think that had anything to do with it?

Got a bad feeling it may be health related. WHAS radio just reported that "She wants to step away from the game for a while".

Oh no, I hope that is not the case, it seemed like the Lady Cats were really starting to come into their own under her.

She says she wants to figure out what to do with the rest of her life but doesn't rule out coaching again. That just seems weird to me. Anybody else?

DeMoss has officially resigned, no reason given other than she "needs a break", according to WHAS news. |

I wonder i it had anything to do with salary. Billy G salary was listed at 2.3 plus incentives. I have a feeling the womans coach makes much less. She has worked miracles with the womans program.

She's a real loss for the Lady's program.. I mean who thought we'd see the Lady Cats' beat UT and Pat Summit?

They did beat them last season! (2005-2006)
Granted her salary is paltry compared to Billy Clyde's but let's be realistic, until the women's program starts bringing in the same kind of money the men's does, that will always be a fact! Look at the difference in salaries in the WNBA vs. NBA, they don't even compare!

Bailey I hate to say it, but coach's salaries are always going to be a function of fan interest and ultimately profits. I can honestly say I don't care that much about our Women's team. I mean, I want them to be successfull, and I'll pull for them to win, but I just don't think women's basketball is fun to watch, and I won't lose any sleep if they start losing again. BUT, if this is health related, I wish Mickey DeMoss the best, and hope she recovers from whatever is wrong quickly. |
