Moore withdrew her name April 18 with intention to finish her eligibility and degree in communications at UDM and emailed Vowels last week to figure out how to work her classes and internship around the team’s practice schedule.
Moore said she told by Vowels on Wednesday that Gilbert wants to completely have a new team and that the university supported that decision to give the player a choice to remain in school on scholarship but not complete her two years of eligibility or re-enter the portal and find another school. Moore began her college career at Western Michigan and has been with the Titans the past two seasons. Gilbert did not participate in the call, Moore said, and has not spoken to her former player since Jan. 16.

With the Huskies’ 103-35 beatdown of the Butler Bulldogs, Auriemma secured his 1,099th victory as a head coach, one more than Summitt’s 1,098.
