Coaching college basketball was never the plan for Chris Dailey. Coaching itself always was, but it was never supposed to be her primary job.
Dailey originally wanted to be a teacher.
“I was always going to coach and teach high school until my senior year of college when I had my six weeks of student teaching in the high school and I hated every second of it,” Dailey said. “After college I got an offer to coach at Cornell and I thought ‘Alright it’s the same amount of money so let me see what it’s like’ and I never looked back.
