"She put our program in a great place and we look forward to continuing to build the program on the foundation Becky put in place. We wish her all the best in her new position at the University of Charleston."<br /><br />So, it doesn't look like there were any hard feelings on the surface. I wonder if she'll get to take any of the chimps they send into space there with her? <br /><br />PaulieCardinal Couplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10565155435705858363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-92130406423236139342018-04-17T11:49:38.574-04:002018-04-17T11:49:38.574-04:00Burke doing what it seems she loves -- staying wit...Burke doing what it seems she loves -- staying with hoops after graduation. 18 players on a roster tho. That must be confusing -- especially for a first year coach.

Gone is Audra Smith. The experiment with her has ended after five years and a 52-99 record. She was 9-70 in the ACC. <br /><br />In is Amanda Butler, formerly of Florida. She made (4) NCAA appearances there in 10 years. <br /><br />My Tigers WBB squad hasn't seen the NCAA Tournament since 2002, went we still had Jim Davis at head coach. <br /><br />Hopefully, we get a reversal of fortunes. Smith was an optimistic, upbeat and positive influence on the team but, ultimately, it didn't turn into an atmosphere that could win games. <br /><br />University of Charleston gets a good one in Burke. I remember her as not just a three-point specialist but as a very good free throw shooters and having a high % from all over the floor. I never got a chance to see her play live, the Cards not in the ACC then, but I do remember a game a few years back when she lit up Syracuse for 7 or 8 threes. <br /><br />I also remember that South Carolina was heavily recruiting her out of high school but she eventually ended up at Louisville. <br /><br />Good luck to Becky and thanks for the article, Paulie. <br /><br />Your friend,<br />#1 Clemson Fan<br />Arthur<br />Greer, SC Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-31168034488057408232018-04-17T10:37:00.946-04:002018-04-17T10:37:00.946-04:00Best of success to Becky.
