[QUOTE="azfan, post: 5258192, member: 7748"] Hypocrisy! I think it's very clear that the fashionista was wounded when her alma mater wouldn't extend her for 5 years at 1.8 Mill in spite of the mediocrity over the last 3 years as the win total in the dirty t decreased over the last 3 years from 22 wins to 19 last year. This at a time when she was on.e of the three highest paid coaches in the Big 12. What I found so insulting and laughable was her first assertion that women basketball was somehow being injured by hiring women from mid major schools. Unbelievable and reflects both the narcissism and blindness of a coach who received a job at her alma mater with limited experience. She wasn't even a head coach but an assistant at Washington. And yet she feels extremely comfortable in indicating that a head coach with 11 years experience and great success in turning programs around is unqualified. If you listen to the original interview in which she honestly displayed her wounded ego in denigrating mid major coaches she outlined her game plan which is laughable. She said the non-conference schedule has a goal to win 11 games, in order to achieve a 20 win season. This recognizes at least from Barnes perspective that she's going to struggle to go .500 in conference. This is the Kim Mulkey approach to gaming the system to get into the tournament although Mulkey is much better coach than the fashionista. Contrast the self-serving approach of the former dirty t inhabitant and fashionista to that of elite coaches like Geno or Dawn who recognized the preseason as an opportunity to develop your team and players and prepare for April thereby scheduling real competition. The fashionista is properly worried or perhaps even terrified that the new portal and NIL environment will reveal her deficiencies, that is lack of ability to develop and motivate players. I know some kitty fans disagree with me here but having watched Barnes "led" teams get destroyed by my NAU Lumberjacks twice last year and let's keep in mind that the Jacks while a 27 win team are a Big Sky squad led by a mid major coach who Barnes seems to have contempt for in spite of her hypocritical self-serving apology. So former coach from the dirty tea probably is worried about what's going to be revealed as we move forward over the next five years. Molly Miller the new head coach at ASU took her 31 Grand canyon squad down to the dirty tee and showed resiliency and character and beating the Big 12 underperforming kitties led by Barnes. Miller another mid major coach who in the fashionista is unqualified and should not have received her position at in-state rival Big 12 ASU out coached out motivated an out led the kitties. Love to be in the room as the SMU administrators are shaking their head thinking what were we thinking? [/QUOTE]
