Message: [QUOTE="cancontent, post: 4804369, member: 10709"] The article isn't great, but it does have an interesting point. Yes, players will go to a coach, even if they're controversial, because they win. However, as we've learned through hindsight (e.g. Penn State football, Ohio State wrestling, Mich State & USA gymnastics, etc.), success doesn't mean things are great or should be celebrated. I think it was a fair question to ask, but the examples they referenced are weak at best. Yes, the Griner situation is well documented but it's also a fair point. Some players may be able to handle the fact she doesn't approve, however others may not. Her dismissive attitude towards the sexual assault claims against Baylor's football team is also fair to question because as a coach of women, you'd like to believe she would have some empathy instead of her reaction. At the same time, she felt her school wasn't getting a fair shake. She's entitled to that opinion. The main thing that stood out to me was the word "complicated" because it's the best description of her in my opinion. That's how she is and how she will always be. You either like her or you don't.
