Notre Dame athletic director Myanna Webster, whose office overlooks the basketball court, is going on maternity leave soon. And guess who's going to be the interim AD while she's away for the next 6-8 weeks: Nancy Winstel, the former NKU women's basketball coach who won almost 700 games and two NCAA D-2 national championships. Among the interesting things about that move is the fact it's Nancy's birthday today, naturally. I don't know whether to say happy birthday, coach Winstel, or happy birthday, Wyatt Foust! Check out Nancy Winstel's Wikipedia page for a trip down memory lane.

She is a great lady with many accomplishments in her life. And ND is lucky to have her! But I have to ask...is that a good thing for the young coach? Maybe it's a great thing, I don't know. But with her looking over the shoulder, will that add pressure to him?

I'd assume Wyatt will love it but not care too much about the "pressure". I think he already is putting enough pressure on himself to strive for excellence in his girls. What a great resource for Wyatt to have.

First of all welcome to BGP Marc! Secondly what a great pick up for NDA. Nancy is one of my favorite folks. Tons of respect for what she has done on the court and off the court. She is a special person.

An interesting story but I do not see the current coach going to Nancy and asking for advice.

Am I correct that Wyatt is not coaching for a few games due to an ejection?

I heard 3 games.

Yes. I heard from friend at the male game 3 Ts

3 technicals?! How is it possible to not get bounced before accumulating that many?!

I know right. Got the second and then a third on the way out while being escorted from the second. Male converted the ts to 12 pts. Or close to that. At the times they happened the game was close. is that a record or how many times has a coach had 3 Ts.

If true, certainly an odd time for the new temporary AD to step in.

 

Sounds odd for me to be asking this but who is the assistant coach who will undoubtedly have to step in?

Now that would be a rumor to remember.

I'd like the math confirmed on the 12 pts off of 3 T's. It is possible but would require all 6 FT's to be made and a 3 after both possesions assuming the 2nd and 3rd T's were near the same time as the coach was being walked out.

5 out of 6 baskets were made.
