Just saying to me he comes off as not taking the high road. Was he thankful for her contributions or not? If so, why not thank her. Was the thought process, "Well, I was gonna thank you for your contributions, but then you mishandled your exit so now I'm not gonna thank you." I like the Calipari example above, taking the high road toward a player who showed inappropriate behavior. I'm have no knowledge that Feuerbach did as well, although you seem to suggest it.
Kylie Feuerbach in transfer portal
- Thread starter qwerty
- Start date
As a number have posted, before you judge coaches actions we should wait till we know where she is going to see what is said.
I have yet to see a single response from TJ regarding any of the men who are transferring, so why should CBF need to do one?
Not sure what where she ends up going to school has to do with how we should react. Gonna be a long wait to see what is said because neither side is going to say anything. Feuerbach said her generic polite piece and the staff isn't going to say anything. Ever. Well, maybe a passive aggressive cheap shot at some point down the line about "Iowa State Way" and "players who want to be here" but nothing specific.
And why should they? I don't see Kim Mulkey issuing a statement regarding Jordyn Oliver transferring, or Jeff Mittie issuing a statement with Chrissy Carr transferring, and Carr's dad is an assistant for Mittie, so why should CBF be expected to say something or issue a statement?
Blindsided or not, how do we know BF didn't wish her well when they met in person? I don't think he's required to say anything publicly for every transfer.
Well none of those players were recruited by TJ to play for him. No one is surprised they are being told to leave or are leaving on their own. BF recruited and landed Kylie just a year ago. He played her significantly. And she is still on her way out. Its a little different.....
Never said he should say anything, more that he won't and the whole discussion is sort of a waste of time. We'll never be privy to the reason she left. Players keep their mouths shut for a reason and that's because she is still at the mercy of another school offering her and she doesn't need the perception of any baggage. If players have grievances it isn't in their best interest to air them. She may or may not have a grievance. I won't say I don't care if she does or doesn't but I'll never know so point is sort of moot. Won't change anything. At this point I am more interested in what Kristen Scott ends up deciding.
How do you know Fennelly didn't thank her face-to-face? How do you know he didn't offer to help her find a new home? How do you know he didn't give her a big hug? That also applies to his staff.
I see Coach Cal's statements as 100% self serving. He is only making those statements for UK recruiting purposes. If Calapari made those growth/developmental comments face-to-face with CamRon, why would he need to post the tweet? Calapari's tweets are only aimed at making sure his one-and-done gravy train doesn't take a hit with the transfer of Fletcher and Askew this spring.
Why does it matter - TJ was their coach when they decided to leave. TJ could easily come out and said something like "Based on the coaching change, player x is choosing to pursue opportunities elsewhere, we wish them the best of luck."
There are over 2,000 players in the portal for men's and women's basketball this year, do you really think every coach that has a player in the portal has spent the time to publicly wish them well?
Unfortunately, there are several on this board who feel he is required.
When did it become mandatory to have to sing kumbaya when players choose to leave a program early? Let 'em handle it privately however they want to and don't lose any sleep over it. Next thing ya know we will be concerned that we didn't see a picture published showing Coach giving her a certificate of participation (insert major sarcasm emoji here)
In case you guys want to stop grumping at another, we have a new player and wing, Nyamer Diew, via the portal..

you tried to compare the situations as if they’re the same. They’re not, and this long winded diatribe is just that.
Fun Fact: Bolte wanted to quit after her freshman season but Bill and her dad convinced her to keep playing.
I am trying to think of any scenario where you provide 8 months of service in a 4 year commitment and should expect a “thank you” when you decide to leave.
Its like a chick you’re in love with breaks up with you and you go on social media to thank her for dating you, like, wtf?

An interesting observation.
Right now our current WBB roster on Cyclones.com still has Maddie Wise on it but has removed Kylie Feuerbach from it.
Also, Kristin Scott and Rae Johnson are still listed. I really hope Kristin can come back for another year.

That’s typical for transfer outs. Maddie is an odd situation, If not for Covid she would be done. Her family situation is also playing some into it.
