Twenty-eight players and assistant coaches have quit the women's basketball program at Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis over the past four years. This week an extensive and disturbing report published in The Indianapolis Star offers some clues as to why.

Here's the full Indy New report rather than going through the Chronicle report and then having to click on the full report link.

And I agree, why does Oregon State have news sources that investigate this. Clearly IUPUI did and they're in our conference. Maybe the conference/NCAA will take note as they continue to investigate.

| I think it would be better if all of the current and past players read it along with their parents. Until parents and student athletes rise up nothing will be done about the current state of disarray in the program. Why would coach Crane change? There is no motivation for her to change and no pressure for her to change. Only people in the stands see the need for change and not all of them at that.

The IUPUI women's basketball article also made it into USA Today.
