Mulkey to LSU

Let's be honest. LSU would have a huge pipeline of talent to choose from in Texas with Mulkey. It won't be longer than 2 years when we will see LSU trending up. Plus the transfer portal.

Oh and LSU has the resources to match Baylor's. If they are serious about women's basketball. The resources is there.

Now I'm speaking as if Mulkey would take the offer. I'm still not sure it will happen until.... It happens. Or of course don't happen.
 
Only my opinion but...why would she leave unless the dollar figure offer is so great she can’t refuse...but Baylor would likely match the offer plus a bit more.

but Mulkey to LSU would be more of a surprising move given the length of her Baylor tenure and success.

I could see LSU hitting the ground running under Mulkey especially with how much movement there is in the game, I mean look at what Kara has assembled through transfers. Plus maybe Janiah Barker from the immediate HS class, as Florida is definitely within LSU's former recruiting territory. Plus '23 in-stater Mikayla Williams is an outstanding talent.

A move like this would be for reasons other than money. That said, money if LSU wants to spend it won't be an issue.

I can see why Mulkey might be attracted to the new challenge. Like she said, the timing is intriguing. LSU paid Nikki a million which at the time was a really huge figure for a coach still consider up-and-coming, so I was guessing there would also be a financial incentive, something making her the highest paid WCBB coach and not something Baylor would easily match.
 
Nikki wasn’t the best, but she did make the post season 6 times at LSU. The last time the job was open, Mulkey had Griner so of course she wasn’t going to leave. I’m not sure if she will head to LSU, but this time around if she did make the move it would make sense.

Kim has stated she is a Louisiana girl and Louisiana girls always go back home. Do not negate the draw to go back home were she grew up and her children were born.

And one more fact, her son played baseball at LSU.

Or, maybe she's made and banked enough money and is at a point in her life where going home is a priority, and she welcomes a new start with a program.
 
Mulkey is likely to stay at Baylor.

According to many sources at LSU, Nikki still hasn’t resigned

These media outlets for LSU are so annoying. Them and their sources lol especially for football. I do rely on Blake at AYS the most though for football.

Kim is working to get a raise and Nikki is trying to steal as much money as possible. Combined together is creating this mess :rolleyes:

the end result for LSU doesn’t look promising right now

So this is still up in the air, right? Shouldn’t the thread title at least have a question mark in it??

Yuppp. Or reworded. I think it's time to move forward with the coaching search. Hopefully it'll be undercover this time

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Warlick would be the equivalent of hiring Johnny Jones, will recruit well but do absolutely nothing with that talent. That’s a hard pass.
 
Dwilliams02 said:
I wouldn't call it a great thing either. Holly really started to trend downward her last few years at Tennessee.
Expand ...
I guess my sarcasm didn't didn't go well without the :rolleyes:. Holly would be a very bad hire.
 
LSU source just said Nikki appears to be working to get her buyout money before leaving for the WNBA. No HC position is officially open at this time. Money grab move it appears

LSU fans and media are like the Chuck Neiderman scene in Necessary Roughness movie - will they go for the tie or go for the win, let's see what they do.
 
Plebe said:
Who is “they”? Just curious.
Expand ...
Spokes person from athletic department to media members. Said to expect an announcement soon but she’s gone.

Im guessing they are waiting for the hire before making the announcement but it’s odd how they have handled this
