Through two seasons with Thompson as head coach, the Cavaliers are 25-36 with a 13-21 record in ACC play.

Joanne Boyle, who was not stellar during her 7 years at UVA, still ended up at 129-99 and her last three years were 18-16, 20-13 and 19-14.

She didn't leave the bench dry when she left for personal reasons: Jocelyn Willoughby was just a sophomore and she was good enough to get drafted into the WNBA.

Thompson was a good post coach at Texas and helped recruit the Houston area for the Longhorns, but I don't think she's a proven quantity at the HC post yet.
