One of her more subdued outfits.

I just realized Mulkey got this outfit to relive the past! She's the one in the middle.

During football season she was highly animated!

No inside info, but I predict she will end up at Florida State.

Stronger conf, and yet their overall sked was basically the same.
Ergo, Baylor's nonconf sked mustve been a lot harder.

I fail to see why the distinction matters.

Anyway, folks dislike Kim/Baylor so they criticized them. They like Vic/MSU, so they didn't. It had little to do with the underlying merits of the respective schedules imho.

I think that’s partially true, but I think a lot of it is people expect Kim to schedule tougher since Baylor has been a perennial top team for the last 15 years or so. Mississippi State has really just been a top team for 2 years and never had high expectations until this coming season.

And that said, Mississippi State did have a tougher schedule and people did call them out on this last season, even if they called out Baylor more frequently.

-Three years with Griner and Sims and just 1 Final Four to show. Griner is arguably the most dominating college player we've ever seen and Kim was only able to get 1 title and 2 Final Fours out of her
-Fours years with a combination of Nina Davis+Odyssey Sims and Nina Davis+Alexis Jones+Kalani Brown with zero Final Fours
-She's had three different teams with 1 loss entering the post season who've bowed out before the Final Four

Besides her 2 title runs and the Final Four run in 2010, her teams have flat out underachieved in the postseason. I don't have an issue with the lack of titles as much as I have an issue with her lack of Final Fours. She should have at least 6-7 Final Fours with the rosters she's had. They've been great teams, they just come up short when everything has been on the line.

Obviously BU isn't upset about it so why does it matter? She keeps getting those checks and raises.

Reread my post where I said, "Mississippi State played a much tougher conference schedule than Baylor did." Conference wise, the SEC was a lot tougher than the Big 12. Big 12 had just one other quality team besides Baylor, and that was a streaky Texas squad that won zero games against Sweet 16 teams.

In addition to Mississippi State, the SEC had South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, and Texas A&M who were all top 4 seeds. Not to mention Mizzou who knocked off SC in the regular season and was a 5 seed.

And like I said in that same post, "People were also complaining about Mississippi State's schedule too, just not as much as Baylor's."

I think it is hard to make a case for Baylor when they played 1 top 25 team 3 times....so that is like more than half of their top 25 matchups.

Was just responding to the thread and providing evidence as to how she's underachieved the past 6 seasons. The same statement about keeping her job and getting raises could be said about Holly or Coach P, so I don't think it's a strong argument. There's no question Kim runs an extremely successful program and has turned Baylor into a powerhouse, but her teams consistently underperform in the tournament.
