WACO, Texas - Baylor Athletic Director Tom Stanton has appointed a seven-member advisory committee to assist in his search for a women's basketball coach to replace the retiring Sonja Hogg.
Those named to the advisory panel include:
. Jeanne Nowlin - associate athletic director/senior women's administrator, Baylor University
. Dr. Linda Livingstone - associate dean and associate professor, Baylor University, chairman of Faculty Athletics Committee, and former vice chair of women's basketball search committee
. Phyllis Gamble - academic advisor/education, Baylor University and former Baylor University women's basketball letterwinner
. Maggie Stinnett - 1993 Baylor graduate (Education) and former Baylor University women's basketball letterwinner
. Mike Rogers - professor, Baylor School of Law, Baylor University and prior chair of women's basketball search committee
. Dr. Darryl Lehnus - associate athletic director for sales and marketing, Baylor University
. Jim Turner - CEO/president, Dr Pepper/Seven Up Bottling Group, Inc.
"This group brings an immense amount of experience and insight to this process," said Stanton. "They understand how important it is for Baylor to continue the success in women's basketball that was begun under Sonja. I'm confident they'll help us to find the very best person to lead this program."
Hogg, one of the sport's pioneers, announced her retirement from coaching on Feb. 21, which became effective following Baylor's 82-61 loss to Nebraska Tuesday in the Big 12 Women's Basketball Tournament.
