Something about Big Ten women's basketball keeps its players around for a long time.
At least that appears to be true in regards to current head coaches Beth Combs of Northwestern, Joanne P. McCallie of Michigan State, Lisa Stone of Wisconsin and Sharon Versyp of Purdue.
All four attended Big Ten schools as undergrads and have all returned to the conference as mentors.
Combs was a guard at Illinois from 1987-89, McCallie, a guard at Northwestern from 1984-87, Stone, a guard at Iowa from 1980-84, and Versyp, a guard at Purdue from 1985-88, before each entered the coaching profession and eventually came back to the Big Ten Conference.
