      • Looks like Jody Adams will remain at Wichita State according to sources:

        • In today's online Eagle

          WSU isn't changing HCJA's status:



          Considering that Sullentrop is usually pretty negative re: Adams, this might mean that the administration has made a specific finding that there was nothing to the complaints. In plain language, though, this is neutral. Interesting to see if Bardo or Sexton issue a statement on their own.

          • The key is that Jody is going to have to get in the community and re-establish some bridges that could have been burned in this situation. Regardless of if the report exonerates here, she has already been found guilty in the court of public opinion, which results in people staying away from her games. Women's basketball needs all the support it can get and can't afford bad press like this. She may keep her job, but she has a long way to go to regain strong support in this community (if she ever even had STRONG support in the first place).

            • Looks like WSU doesn't want to tarnish the image of Sexton, so they will stand by their women's head basketball coach no matter the cost to the student athlete. As an outsider to the women's program it looks to me like WSU doesn't care about what the student athletes have been reporting for the last 7 years to the administration. I for one will not be attending any women's basketball game as long as Jody Adams remains the coach!

                I am not familiar enough with the women's program to have any real opinion one way or the other, so am just asking an honest question, not disagreeing at all. Would this opinion change if somewhere/somehow, the people investigating were able to show that it was mostly just sour grapes, or has that bridge been permanently burned?

                • So what's the over/under on when we will be rehashing this same issue again?

                  Not real sure what to think of this.....very sad we don't get to see two girls who busted their ass for the program play their senior year here.

                  I expect Twitter will be lighting up full throttle from both camps

                    I know one person who told me (I think when DE was here) that they went to the games to support the girls, but turned their back to the court when the coaches were introduced. I would not be surprised if that happened again.

                      I would also wonder if not attending the games would be more detrimental to the girls than to the coaches. I know it's a WAY different situation, but if I didn't like my daughter's coach at the Y, I would still go to support her.

                      • Good news, now it's time for Coach Adams to get back to work to bring us another MVC Title!

                        • I would like to see if she is able to achieve a title while staying within the NCAA practice time restrictions.

                            Unfortunately, some other University will probably hire him to do nothing as well.

                            • 2nd time around for Jody. Weak sauce in my opinion. Good luck recruiting.
