Holly “I don’t know” Warlick and Coach Jumper. Both can be there tomorrow for $2mSuch as ?
Geno, Tara, KimM, Vic = no
Brenda, Graves, Dawn = almost certainly no
Who else is there?

My "attainable" guesses (for $2 million annually) are Walz, Frese, Graves, Close, and Barnes (least likely being a UofA grad). That doesn't mean the A.D. will reach out to them. Doesn't mean these coaches want to leave. But, I think they are "attainable" based on the possible salary increase, and elite talent remaining at Baylor (as of this moment).Such as ?

You think Baylor is looking to spend what they spent on Mulkey?My "attainable" guesses (for $2 million annually)
According to the statements by their A.D. that they aren't gonna lower their budget for women's hoops . . .You think Baylor is looking to spend what they spent on Mulkey?
If they end up with Joni, they will probably save a million. Unless its one of those other coaches from those other top programs, no one should be touching 2 million annually.According to the statements by their A.D. that they aren't gonna lower their budget for women's hoops . . .
Frese is not happening.My "attainable" guesses (for $2 million annually) are Walz, Frese, Graves, Close, and Barnes (least likely being a UofA grad).

The cupboard is hardly empty at Baylor. Some head coaches could possibly walk into a more talented roster than what they leave behind, and then could bring in some transfers from their previous program.
I think Megan Duffy would be an excellent choice if some of the "big names" aren't available. You could tell watching her team that they were well coached, especially on the defensive end, without the level of talent that Baylor would afford. I bet she would produce really strong results.
She may be Catholic. Don’t the Baptists consider that worse than being atheist?![]()
All due respect to @Dillon77 but Duffy needs to actually WIN something or DO something in the NCAAT before you start bandying about propping her name for an elite program. It's one thing to tout her for her alma mater job when MM retired but not logical for another very different location and demographic job.

I like Duffy a lot but no way does she deserve any consideration for this job. No Texas roots, no success in the NCAA, no conference titles and she's only been a head coach for 4 years. She also has had zero success recruiting at an elite level. All of those are disqualifiers for me. Give her time though and I do think she will make noise on the WCBB scene. Hopefully making Marquette into a national power.
But I am sure Dillon will suggest another ND former coach or player to be nominated-maybe Beth Cunningham, Jonathan Tsipis both had head coaching experience....![]()
Joni Taylor's Husband is an Asst. Coach with the Atlanta Dream. Do they pull strings and add him to the staff of the Dallas WNBA franchise ? If Baylor was smart-they would hire that Yollette Mcphee from Ole Miss. she is the next rising star....Joni Taylor is the priority right now , if they dont get her then its fair game !

If you are going to put the other names on that list, might as well add Rueck.
I LOVE the Megan Duffy pick for Baylor. She's young and hungry and seems savvy.I think Megan Duffy would be an excellent choice if some of the "big names" aren't available. You could tell watching her team that they were well coached, especially on the defensive end, without the level of talent that Baylor would afford. I bet she would produce really strong results.
Yolette i like , i never considered and im sure her salary at Ole Miss would be Crumbs in comparison to BU. I Like her in Waco Great Call !!Joni Taylor Husband is an Asst. Coach with the Atlanta Dream. Do they pull strings and add him to the staff of the Dallas WNBA franchise ?

100% agree. That AD has to be the biggest idiot on the planet. Period. Absolutely clueless.The Baylor board listed the names above. Where they got it from is unknown. The AD did say he was surprised by all the interest in the job which says:
1. He’s an idiot to not realize how well regarded Kim made Baylor
2. The current roster is loaded
3. The money Kim made and Baylor was spending dwarves almost every other program
4. His initial choice may be getting a counteroffer from her existing school
While I do think Kim could be a tad dramatic, I think this AD is a complete tool and he blew it.
There is zero logic, any connections, or reason to leave UCONN for BaylorThe sicem site wants Geno
Hopefully they enter the portal.....Wonder if the trio of super-seniors (Staiti, Morrison, Connally) wish they'd entered the draft now. Or whether they'll stay at UGA...
