Melanie Balcomb Will Not Be Retained As Women's Basketball Coach
The Commodore women had missed the last three NCAA Tournaments.Vanderbilt Commodores women's basketball coach Melanie Balcomb will not return next season according to the Tennessean's Adam Sparks.
Balcomb departs Vanderbilt with a 310-149 career record. The career .675 winning percentage on the surface is good, but the problem was that over the last three years, the Commodores have gone 51-43 and missed the NCAA Tournament all three years. They've also had a losing record in the SEC in each year, and attendance dropped to an abysmal 2,906 per game in 2015-16.
