Texas fires head basketball coach


Apr 5, 2020, 2:30 PM

The women's coach, that is. Karen Aston was there for 8 years, and was 184-83 overall, 93-51 in the Big XII.

In 2015-2016, they were 31-5 and made the Elite Eight. She made six straight NCAA Tournaments, including four straight Sweet 16s from 2015-2018. This season, they were 19-11 heading into the Big XII Tournament before it was canceled.

Texas seems to enjoy firing good, successful head coaches. They think way too highly of themselves. Typically, when they fire a good coach, they replace them with someone less successful (e.g. firing Rick Barnes and hiring Shaka Smart). I'm guessing their next women's basketball coach will be less successful than Aston was.

Pump fake. Thought you meant Shaka.

It should've been Shaka.

Aston is a much better coach IMO.

I dont follow women's hoops. The only women's player I have seen highlights on is that phenom from Oregon.

It probably doesn’t matter very much, but technically she wasn’t fired. She was at the end of her contract and they decided to not renew.

They let her go, that's pretty much the exact same thing***

Does she enjoy riding motorcycles? Does she have any male student managers? err, uh female managers?
