Notre Dame's Muffet McGraw won't take the bait as Geno Auriemma throws more barbs
Don't want to have this blow up into a sexist conflict, but maybe Muffet should take her foot out of her mouth on this one. Coming out and saying, she'll never hire a male coach, and using the excuse that more women need the jobs, is about as blatenly sexist as you can get. If it had been a male coach, who had said the same thing, the media would be in a frenzy. Likewise if a white coach said he/she wouldn't hire people of color, it would be front page news, ESPN would be doing multiple stories about it. Geno is right about criticizing Muffet, over her statement, yet if one is to believe the report from the Indiana media, they're trying to intimate that Geno is the villian, for "throwing a barb" at Muffet. Sorry. Geno is just taking Muffet's statement, and throwing it back at her. The real sad thing, now, is, that the Final four won't be about the accomplishments of the four teams, but will be about Muffet McGraw's assinine sexist statement, and Geno's retort. Brilliant
