Hadn't seen this, but she and her assistant coaches had been placed on administrative leave on April 1st.

[I]The firm conducted a review that included 28 interviews of current players and personnel connected to the UNC women's basketball program and found widespread support for three overarching themes:

1.     Hatchell made comments that were racially insensitive, and when confronted by players and staff did not respond in a timely or appropriate manner.  The review concluded that Hatchell is not viewed as a racist, but her comments and subsequent response caused many in the program to believe she lacked awareness and appreciation for the effect her remarks had on those who heard them.

2.     Players and medical staff expressed frustration with perceived and undue influence from Hatchell regarding medical issues and pressure to play. Despite Hatchell's questioning of player care, status and readiness, the medical staff did not surrender to pressure to clear players before they were medically ready.

3.     There has been a breakdown of connectivity between the players and Hatchell.  [/I]
