STATESBORO, Ga. – In a time where near instantaneous gratification is part of everyday life, sometimes people forget that it takes time for things to develop, especially after a change is made. That is not something that head coach Kip Drown needs to be reminded of as he works to raise the Georgia Southern women's basketball team back up into a contender in the Sun Belt Conference, the region and NCAA Division I women's basketball.
The rebuilding process that Coach Drown began during the 2015-16 season may not have generated the types of results that he and the Eagles wanted right away, but progress could be seen throughout the season, especially to the head coaching veteran who has made a career of turning programs around for the better.
