[QUOTE="joe4304, post: 1123806, member: 9653"] Have seen a few practices and games the last 2-3 years and agree with the good cop-bad cop approach. Divilbiss has a history of being extremely tough on his players, and while head coach at Idaho, many girls transferred out. I believe Gleason simply wasn't good enough to get playing time. In her dad's letter he can't understand why the coaches came down on her for a behind the back pass. I would say many coaches would do that. He also refers to her high school accomplishments, but most Big Ten athletes had storied high school careers. The concerns from Jacqui Grant's step-father are more valid to me. She was getting plenty of playing time, was by all accounts a good player and a good teammate. Athletes from other sports have said she was one of the nicest kids on campus. Really unfortunate to lose her. [/QUOTE]
