I'm "in" this group on facebook but not because I support the cause, more because I'm fascinated by the discussions.
As has been frequently pointed out here, her record on/off the court when it comes to games won/lost wasn't good. Her record with players actually graduating was even worse. Her record against the cats and in the tourney over 4 years was abysmal. That just doesn't cut it, especially for a program that honestly has the most lofty expectations in the conference.
The discussion on this page tends to circle around a group of topics.
1. Shannon is a Lady Griz legend with the most prestigious playing record of any female athlete in UM history.
2. Shannon is a wonderful friend and a great person to be around.
3. Shannon and Brian are great parents and long-time staples of the University of Montana.
I don't personally don't know the Schweyen's but I'd assume based on the flood of responses in there that they've built up a great group of supporters and these comments and discussions are all valid and make sense. However it doesn't have much at all to do with what's been happening with the team and her dismissal.
Then there's the following topics:
4. Transfers happen all the time and the new transfer portal is the root cause of all these issues as kids these days are more fickle and their parents are even more awful to deal with as they all demand the perfect treatment. A former LG player in one video posted in there said that players transferring were "immoral" but it seemed like at the time she was speaking more off the top of her head, I don't necessarily think she believes every player that has left the team is without morals.
5. The wave of injuries that hit the team the first few years should have been considered more heavily in this process and how is it Shannon's fault that she had to endure with 3 years of roster-devastating levels of injuries.
6. Kent Haslam entered into discussions with her to give her 2 more years but then pulled the rug out from under her later.
7. They also found posts and shared screen shots of a few posters on FB complaining about Shannon's job as a coach and discussed what the relevance of said people were to the program and if boosters were too influential to Kent in his decision making.
8. Shared articles and discussions, even from Shannon's husband, about the treatment of women as head coaches in college athletics.
9. Some very vocal anti-Haslam talk spurred by many, including previously fired soccer coach Mark Plakorus.
Obviously these are the main points of debate where the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Some good arguments, some not so good. The discussions around these points can be widely debated, this group generally leans to one side of these topics. A few have hopped in to provide counter-points but they generally get blasted off the face of the earth for doing so.
And then there's the really entertaining stuff:
10. A gofundme of $5000, loosely defined to be used to simply run ads in the paper, with lots of "likes" and "loves" but just $850 raised ($500 from one person) and so far what appears to be none from most of the really vocal people in there.
11. A wild array of discussions ranging from suggestion that she should be the next coach for Notre Dame, that she should immediately take Kent's job, that she should be the UM president, that everyone should cut off all funding to athletics and end/ruin the entire athletic department, or that everyone should hop on FB live events for campus recruitment that President Bodnar is hosting and demand her rehiring (group organizers nixed the last idea).
It's... quite a perspective to look at the whole thing.
