Mulkey has reportedly agreed to become the head coach at LSU, according to ESPN!
 
Transfer portal just blew up. Baylor would be lucky if they have at least 5 players available next season. Just don’t what decent coach can takeover that program now. Should’ve paid her what she wanted.

SEC Football money keeps paying dividends for women sports and coaches. SEC has improved lots in softball and gymnastics and just won their first ever NC in Volleyball. Now they are working at getting BBall back from the golden days of Tennessee.

As for Mulkey beiing highest paid WCBB coach, she's worth it. Several years younger than Geno or Tara. Plus she got in the Women's BBall HOF before both of them. Kim-2000, Tara-2002, and Geno 2006.

Yeah ive also noticed the SEC starting to really improve in womens basketball. SC, A&M, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Georgia all were Top 25 teams last year. Vandy just hired Ralph, LSU just got Mulkey. Should be a very competitive conference.

The WBHOF point could not be more irrelevant. Kim was inducted in 2000 as a player, not as a coach. Last I checked, Geno never had the opportunity to shine as a women's college basketball player.

Now back to the LSU situation, Kim is going and I think there will be at least 4 players, if not more that go with her.

Not sure how many slots LSU has available. i thought 2 but could be wrong

She got into the HOF as a player, not coach

If Kim makes the move, we will see how she does with an LSU program that hasn’t seen the kind of success as Baylor and hasn’t generally been a school that makes the final list for most top WBB recruits.

Just because Nikki was a trash recruiter doesn't mean kids won't be interested. Florida and Ole miss were making top recruits final 5 despite being a bottom dweller programs.

Its 100% about the coach and their ability to relate and attract recruits. If Pokey and Van could attract top 100 players, so will Kim.

The golden ducky forgot to mention the newly retired pickle from Indiana in his list of runner-ups. I can't for the life of me imagine why.

Congratulations to Kim. I wish her and the flying wardrobe well in their next exciting adventure.

In January 2020 I got to watch in person as a Fargas-coached LSU team dismantled a chronically overrated Kentucky team. A good time was had by all.

I'm already buzzing at the thought that my next visit to the Pete Maravich Assembly Center will be to see a Kim Mulkey-coached LSU Tigers team dismantle a visiting squad.

I wonder what Alabama grad-transfer PG Jordan Lewis is thinking right now after just signing with Baylor last week . . . 🤣

Most unfortunately, and I do mean that, in the world of college sports (BUSINESS), she becomes collateral damage.
Hopefully, and I do not know all of the rules (who does?), maybe she can withdraw her transfer to Baylor, and recommit to a program that better suits her goals (if this changes that).
Only fair.

Paige just asked Zia on IG live if she thinks Nalyssa will leave Baylor lol. What’s y’all’s thoughts?

It would not have made sense to mention Muffet given she is not coaching so definitely does not deserve to be highest paid. coach. The only two coaches that could make an argument to be paid more than Mulkey are Geno and Tara which is why I mentioned them along with my irrelavant fact.

Still when Niele leads ND to win 3 NCs or more than she'd probably deserve that salary (even though ND would be too cheap to give her that). If Niele can even win 1 NC at ND she would be the only one that would match Mulkey's feat as "the only person in college basketball history – men's or women's – to win national championships as a head coach, assistant coach and a player." (per the LSU press release).

One can dream.

I think , if she hasn’t enrolled and attended a class, that she can go anywhere.

They also gave her credit for being an Academic All-American. Somehow I don't think her skill at writing English papers was the thing that got her in the HOF.

And if you think she still looks the same, might be time to update the lens prescription.

She wins four State Championships at Hammond High, and graduates valedictorian with a perfect 4.0 GPA which is pretty cool
