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.

From the 2008-09 Media Guide by MPG

Jonathan Tsipis is listed as the associate head coach who has "worked primarily with the wings while coordinating Notre Dame's nationally ranked recruiting efforts." Muffet is quoted as saying, "He has done a tremendous job as our recruiting coordinator and his track record in terms of player development and game scouting is among the best in the country."

My recollection is that he became the top assistant when Coquese Washington left to coach PSU. He was Muffet's top assistant until he left ND to coach at George Washington. Niele Ivey, an assistant coach at that time, moved up when Jonathan left. Niele was the primary recruiter in 2008 for Skylar Diggins, but the quotes listed above show that Tsipis was the recruiting coordinator as the program began to return to top five status.

I don't recall the specific roles for Kevin McGuff, but I believe that he became the top assistant when Carol Owens left.
