Coach Coale got to OU when I was a student. At the time, a couple hundred people attended women's basketball games. Yes. A couple hundred. A few years later, Lloyd Noble was PACKED and she's guiding @OU_WBBall to Final Fours. Thank you... and enjoy what's next, @sherricoale! https://t.co/zICMjDeZMv
