Mulkey to LSU

[Plebe]

I need me some crawfish and alcohol to celebrate this lol.

I have a passel of choices to join in your celebration (sans alcohol, not my thing) here in Houston:

BB's Tex-Orleans
Crawfish Cafe
Acme Oyster House (just opened in the past week!)
Esther's Cajun Cafe and Soul Food
Gumbo Jeaux's
Hot and Buttered
Boil House
Zydeco Louisiana Diner (downtown, I think they're closed Sundays)

And I'm sure many more I'm not thinking of right now.

Kim in the SEC will be great. Makes things more interesting. Someone was on one of the LSU message boards last week saying Kim was going to LSU and saying the same person that told them also said Vic was going to Texas. Who knows if the person had any real intel, but it's interesting nonetheless.

Kim needs to set up a game with the blue devils but Kim never schedules tough OOC unfortunately I won't complain about the process if she fields a good team but thats how she always is unfortunately.

If she didn't feel like she needed to schedule a tough OOC while being relatively unchallenged for years in the Big 12, certainly wouldn't expect her to change that now that she'll be playing in a tougher SEC.

Too bad LA Tech didn’t pay her back in the day, still irrelevant to this day.

They will be playing LaTech, LA Monroe, Louisiana, Southern, McNeese St

IIRC it was about LaTech honoring just a 4 year contract rather than a 5 year one. Kim definitely got the last laugh after the fall out.

Tulane? Or is that too close to a P5 school?

I never believed it was about that. It didnt make sense.

SEC football money can make any SEC AD look good. Lot's of SEC ADs are spending on 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.

Softball in the SEC has been pretty strong for quite some time - over the past 13 NCAA championships (there wasn't one played last year), of the 26 teams that played in the Championship series, 10 of them were SEC teams, with 3 champions. Used to be it was strictly a California-based sport - mostly UCLA and Arizona heavily dominating the sport beginning in the early 80's.....

Don't forget Northwestern State!!

 

[Carnac]

So with Mulkey’s departure, does that mean that Vic Schaefer now owns the state of Texas? Asking for a friend.

 

[SECbbfan24]

Don't forget Northwestern State!!

Don’t forget Nicholls St

Saw this come across the ESPN App Sunday night. @SECbbfan24 must have his best night's sleep in over 10 years last night!

Well I said I would be surprised and I am. Honestly didn't see it happening but congrats to LSU and their fan base. I have a feeling the Tigers will be back in the thick of the national scene by year 3, maybe sooner with all the modern action the portal brings.

The SEC schools are showing they are willing to make a commitment to basketball. That's good for the sport. I will be curious to see what Baylor does in her departure. So far this offseason has been anything but boring.

 

[enigmatic]

All I'm going to say is that the SEC is going to be very very interesting next season.

 

[SimpleDawg]

Lol... Didi

 

[Argonaut]

Lobo seems pretty optimistic about LSU's return to prominence.

 

[Gamecockfan77]

Mulkey and Muffett were the only two major coaches who didn't seem to want to schedule Dawn so looks like we got all the bases covered now.

Welcome to the SEC. Congrats LSU. Condolences to Baylor.

Kim: "I would not have left Baylor for any other school except LSU"

 

[Puppy Love]

Has there been any word on how well Matthew Mitchell is recovering from his injury? I’d love to hope that some day he would be well enough to take over a top program.

Why on earth would you want that? Or were you not around for his patented forty minutes of fouling approach to coaching?

Lol at how Kim ripped off and tossed aside her mask with nearly the same verve as the infamous jacket in the Oregon State game. "Imma take this damn mask off ... because I have a lot to say!"

She’s testing the air quality and how things fly in the PMAC.

1st SEC National champion was Bama 2012 and Florida won it 2014/15 which to me is pretty recent. I've noticed the SEC teams getting better to compete with the PAC12 teams who still have the most recent championship with UCLA getting their 12th overall in 2019. Arizona, ASU, Cal, Oregon, & Washington have all made the final 4s the last 10 years along with perenial power UCLA, For SEC beyond Bama & Fla, Auburn, LSU, Tennessee, & Georgia have been pretty strong. The other 3 Power Conferences seem to have only 1 really strong team: Oklahoma Big12, FSU-ACC, & Michigan -B10.

Different state, different colors, same dramatics.

I take it her mask is now in the portal?
