This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

We need Halfpenny out and go after a hyphenated named coach by Domerduck

Either Acacia Walker-Weinstein of NC runner up BC or Shelly Klaes-Bawcombe of National Champion JMU would be a massive upgrade over Halfpenny who missed the NCAA tournament this year and only once got her team to the quarterfinals since being here while both these coaches have taken programs with little history to the National Championship game. From a facility and job attractiveness, ND would have to be an upgrade for either of the coaches.

W-W is the younger of the 2, a Maryland 2005 grad/lacrosse AA & team captain who became an Assistant coach at Northwestern before heading to Massachusetts. She has been HC at BC since 2012 and this was her best year. K-B was a 1997 JMU AA and so is coaching her 12th year at her alma mater after 5 years as HC at Hofstra, Going from the CAA to the ACC could be the attraction. It will be hard for her to duplicate her feat at James Madison.

Of course to improve Jack has to fire a coach who has disappointed.
