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.

I doubt it would ever be advertised as a firing but... by FL_Irish
The women's tennis team desperately needs a change in leadership. Louderback is a legend by ND standards, but he appears to be mailing it in at this point. They've slipped from a perennial Sweet 16 team to barely making the tournament. Barring a major turn around, they're going to get annihilated in ACC play this year.
Given that Jack didn't hire him and that it could be sold as retiring with honor, I could see Louderback being eased out before any of the names on your list. Then again, Swarbrick has given no indication he cares about winning, so I'd say it's equally likely a coach of a minor sport who has done as much for Notre Dame as Louderback has would be allowed to remain at the helm as long as he wants.
