So after a very satisfying victory by the Huskies yesterday, I went out to dinner with my much better half, and look at what I missed.

The biggest problem I have with Kim's comments is that she took the spotlight away from her seniors on a day that belonged to them.

Her comments are boorish and ill-considered.  She obviously feels some overwhelming need to defend Baylor, but why?

Here's my best guess.  Recruiting is a very tough business.  Many coaches will say almost anything to sway a recruit their way, and the terrible events at Baylor are fodder for any recruiter, particularly in the talent-rich lone star state.

I suspect that Kim is hearing negative comments from recruits and their families.  Maybe she received some bad news right before the game.  She also feels the pressure from Karen Aston and the Longhorns who are closing the gap fast on the bears.

So Kim did what Kim does.  She had a knee jerk reaction that does nothing to deal with the very serious issues that Baylor must confront in order to repair all the damage that was done not only by those football players who committed sexual assaults, but also by an uncaring and obstructionist coaching staff and administration.
