Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 3613266, member: 7492"] I don't think "people will find any reason to make someone unqualified" is what anyone was saying, as it was rightfully pointed out she has not coached at any level of team WBB-be it NCAA, WNBA, USA or the local PAL league. Let's also qualify that being one of 6 NBA assistants for a total time of 75% of season for players who have reached the highest level of skills and knowledge is completely different than getting 14-17 year olds to follow you, getting 17-21 year olds to understand, follow and stay focused to elevate their games, to understand the myriad of NCAA rules to follow as a recruiter, trainer and protocol. And as was pointed out, what game management experience does she have- ZERO. Can she overcome these issues given her pedigree yeah, probably but then again, look at Lindsey Whelan who was significantly a more accomplished player than Kara and she's struggling a bit at Minnesota. And let's face it, Minnesota is NO WHERE near the level the microscope that will be Duke and the ACC is at. So yes it is correct to say that Kara does NOT check all the boxes and no way does being an announcer or an assistant at the NBA for 60ish games equal WCBB coaching experience. [/QUOTE]
