11:03 am
quite a legacy for herself and the program. >> tara vanderveer is the winningest basketball coach in ncaa history with 1216 winds at idaho, ohio state and the maples pavilion behind me at stanford. she earned this title this past january when she surpassed former duke coach mike, and 70 years, the coach said it's time that she announced her retirement. after 38 seasons at stanford, she led the cardinals to three national championships and 14 final fours. in a statement she wrote in part, it has been an unforgettable ride, the joy for me was in the journey of each season, seeing a group of young women work hard for each other and form an unbreakable bond. this morning, to student athletes at stanford share their thoughts on the coaches retirement. >> i think it's really sad because she's done a lot for the program and for basketball in general although i'm a
11:04 am
volleyball player i love watching aska ball and following it and i think what she has done for the sport and everyone, little kids look up to her, even coaches in general, i think it's amazing. >> i haven't really watched women's basketball and i think it's so awesome that everyone is starting to watch it and make women's brackets and stuff and i think it's really inspiring. so i do think she has done her time here but she's a really big inspiration to everyone else. >> coach tara is expected to remain on as an advisor. kate pay played under her has than on hers staff and is in negotiations to be the successor also stanford, leading the pac-12, so my point is, there's a lot of changes in store for next season. coach tara will talk to us during a news conference scheduled for 1:00 here on campus.
11:05 am
>> throughout her career, coach vanderveer has earned their respective coaches throughout the country. anthony florez is joining us live from stanford. all right, anthony, look, she meant so much to the program, been there since 1985. talk about this new role as an advisor, how will that look? >> reporter: coach is scheduled to have a press conference at 1:00 this afternoon on campus. we will learn more about the role coming up, really in 45 years as a head coach of the game, the last 38 at stanford, she has left her imprint not only on the program but in ncaa college basketball. she was the all-time winningest coach, she has led stanford to three national championships, and 14 final four appearances, so no doubt, whatever role she takes in the program, she's already left her imprint on this program and pretty much given all her wisdom to this program, but with new changes, they are moving to the acc, there will be some new
11:06 am
scheduling and trying to figure out how to game plan for long road trips, longer road trips than they are used to, that could be important in the future, and just kind of preparing for the changes even in college athletics with the transfer portal, it's not easy with stanford's tough academic standards, you get some of the top college basketball players, she has managed to do that and has drilled stanford into a national power for the last four decades. >> stanford curly in negotiations with kate payne to be her successor, what do we know about her and her credentials? >> she's a national champion, she was on the member of the winning team in 1992, she's been an assistant for 17 seasons, the past eight as an associate head coach. she has worked with coach vanderveer for all the ups and downs, and has learned from the best, no doubt, she will bring the wisdom and experience to the bench in the future.
11:07 am
>> you kind of talked about this when you talk about moving conferences but along with the coaching era ending, they are facing the next level, next fall, without the pac-12, so what is being done with the basketball program and really across the athletic department to brace for the change? >> there will need to be a lot of changes if you are going to be competitive in the ac, that has been the predominant conference, this year the pac- 12 had unprecedented success with not only stanford but usc. so trying to compete in that conference and negotiating the travel schedule, how do you prepare while still taking care of your academic studies, that proved to be a big hurdle for stanford as well as overcoming the transfer portal, now, schools can be terrible one year and the next you get a
11:08 am
couple of transfers in and you can be a national power. stanford will have to learn how to navigate that situation. they've done a great job so far, they were a top seed this year, so we will wait and see how that transpires but that will definitely be a challenge for stanford in the future. >> no doubt they will rise to the occasion. >> thank you very much, anthony. >> the news conference is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. as anthony was saying and we plan to stream for you live on roku and our other digital platforms and you can also watch it live on nbcbayarea.com. new details this mid day, this is after surveillance video surface is showing a man vandalizing a san francisco mosque. police confirming the incident happened last week but community members say he returned about 24 hours ago. >> ginger, you spoke to people from the mosque who say last week's vandalism, this isn't isolated? >> reporter: no, unfortunately laura and marcus, it's not. that's what i've been told by community members of the mosque
