As we try to assess coaching, whether we like it or not, recruiting is #1 as a skill. Mulkey has 2 titles and numerous league titles. Aston has made Texas relevant again after the eroding that Conradt and Gail G let spiral down. Location is only a part of the draw. How well you “click” with the coach and the team and oh yeah-the academics. Most top kids are indifferent to locale. Dawn has now built 2 programs and made them relevant (more so than Tanya has at Temple-though I do root for her).  Brenda does do well despite our micro-picking of her flaws and has won quite a few league titles as well as getting far into numerous tournaments. On the one hand you mention Walz with aiding her but yet discount what Vic did with Gary Blair at Texas A&M when they won a title. And to be fair, Walz has been outstanding at Louisville so I do think he has the coaching chops and maybe this year will get him back to the Final Four. Again, I do appreciate the dialogue  and mostly agree with all of it, just wanted to give you some “food for thoughts” on my perspective.
