Dungee Transferring

The 3 new players have a chance to get lots of playing time next year. I hope they come in this summer and work hard. The opportunity is there for them with the roster we have right now.
 
ai dont know what occasioned Chelsea's moves, but I do know that her mother was a single parent and pushed her to get her best exposure in basketball to get a scholarship. How much choice did Chelsea have from grade school on? None of us know, but it was her choice to transfer(I guess).
 
Spock,

Of course you are right. We don't know what went on. However, it is just common sense to know, understand, think that both are at fault to some serious degree.

What the final spark was is the only unsolved question here as far as I am concerned.

That is too bad. Definitely a pattern with her past though. Wish her well.

Exactly what is it that they are both at fault for, Oliver? As far as I can tell, none of us have any idea why Dungee is transferring. So just how can we start assigning blame to anyone?

Common sense, you say? Makes absolutely no sense to me, common or otherwise.
 
The problem is less blame/fault but where does OU go now?
Sherri's recruiting shortcomings are going to leave this roster weak again.
I got no issue with a playing time transfer, but Dungee was likely to start.
And for the future, the likely starting trio of
Tatum, Dungee, and Llanusa is done.
One step forward enrolling Llanusa and getting a verbal from Tatum.
one step backward losing Dungee.
Just not building enough depth of enough difference makers.
 
I admit I am really disappointed. Chelsea was by far my favorite player on the team.

However, most of you have absolutely no idea why she is leaving. It is very interesting that she announces this just as the semester is ending and grades are being issued. Could there be some connection? We had a young lady leave a few years ago due to a shoplifting event. Students leave schools due to academic honesty events. All kinds of things can happen to cause a student to leave a school.

Until you are inside the program and know exactly what led to this, please keep your mouth shut (or perhaps "keep your hands off the keyboard" is a better way to express it), and use your brain to wait until/if some news is reported explaining this.
 
I really hate to hear this news. I always enjoyed watching Chelsea play...Very talented and she will be missed.......Wish her the best, wherever she goes, but I wished she would have stayed a SOONER.....

I don't know that anyone is really stating they know why she is leaving. I suspect that it will hurt the program, and anything that affects the program is worthy of discussion.

I'll reserve judgment until (or if) we find out the specifics.


:OU-logo:
 
Since OU just received a commitment from Veitenheimer who is a member of Texas Elite, the coach's comments of that team doesn't seem to reflect a bias against Sherri. Indeed, two other members of that team seem to be considering OU.

Are we dealing with individual AAU coaches who have their own agendas, which probably don't involve the best interests of the athlete?

We don't really know what this is all about yet. It could be an AAU coach that thinks he can get her mother a better job if she is elsewhere. It could be a promise that she will be the next Plum if she is elsewhere.

Transfers seem to be happening a lot more recently. We've had Peyton and Morgan come in. We lost Chelsea. I don't know that the earth will shake any more with her departure than with Peyton's arrival.

Regarding the feud between Mulkey and Dungee--first I have heard of it. My original objection to a poster was the first post which indicated that we would be "disappointed" with Mulkey and Dungee. This is my first disappointment with either. Of course, since the intent was to imply that they weren't as good as we had thought, I'm not sure why we should be so concerned about losing someone who was to have been a "disappointment." Need to define whether to gloat over our losing someone whom he didn't value highly in the first place or gloat because she was better than he projected, and now we have lost her.

DFW Elite and Texas Elite are 2 separate club teams. Texas Elite is run by the guys that hold the Premier Basketball tournaments - like the Heart of Texas showcase this past weekend. I do not believe there are any issues between OU and Texas Elite.

Texas United no longer exists. They merged with Cy-Fair.

I remember some players last season during a game complaining to Dungee about not passing the ball. I have no idea if that was a bigger issue than that moment during that game, but it stood out to me at the time.
 
He/she may be knowledgeable about AAU ball, but that in no way changes the fact that, when it comes to talking OU basketball on this site, skilledserv is nothing more than a troll.

BINGO! Among others!

Thanks for clearing that up for me, I had the names wrong, still it's good to see kids choosing different AAU teams, it can only help OU moving forward...

Of course it is probable that there was fault on the part of both parties. No know that we can say both parties were at serious fault without knowing more. I might be inclined to Sherri the benefit of the doubt in this situation. Dungee did sign on committed to play to Sherri's expectations. Doubt that Sherri committed to coach Dungee coach to Dungee's expectations.

One must not forget it is Sherri's team and she sets team standards.

Me too. I always thought that she should have played more. The only game i saw in person was at KSU. I was very impressed at the way she splayed and how hard she played. I loved her drive and at times she played very well. We may never know why she is leaving but I'm getting a little tired of losing girls.

I don't know what all the AAU talk is about. I'm going to miss her.
 
As I said before, things most likely will stay about the same. Maybe take a step backwards,
the best days with this staff are behind them. Sherri isn't going to change much if any and she knows right know she can get by with it. There may be a day that she isn't held in such high regards with the higher ups at OU. I still believe that it is poor judgment to pay her at her current level, I really don't blame her for that I mean I would milk it as long as I could too.

Bingo. She is in a comfort zone and on cruise control. Why rock the boat. Just keep cashing those big checks. Most of us would probably do the same thing. Win some, lose some. No one at the University of Oklahoma seems to care one way or another.

You do realize that she has a contract so it's not like Joe C. can just call her in and tell her they are cutting her pay. And if they fire her they have to pay the buyout plus the salary of the new coach.
 
Sherri seems like she coaches because she has a passion for it, I'm sure she wants to win a national championship, it's a little crazy to here people think otherwise...

Perhaps we have seen the beginning of the reigning in of Sherri's compensation. In 2016 OU extended her contract for five years without any salary raise whatsoever. She is guaranteed $1.1 million plus bonuses through 2021.

Were my boss to tell me I was not going to get a raise for the next five years unless there was some on the job performance improvement I would take the hint. Especially with WBB coaches salaries advancing as evidenced by Dawn Staley's new contract for $1.45 million beginning in 2017-18 and extending through 2024-25.

Gino's new contract at UConn is for 5 years starting at $2.4 million this year.
Just hope Sherri's new contract extention was a hint.
