If they don't want to play for Mulkey believe me she does not want them to play for her. She takes the Starkist approach:

Starkist does not want tuna with good taste Starkist wants tuna that tastes good.

South Carolina coach Dawn Staley, whose Gamecocks play NC State Friday in the Final Four, won the poll in a landslide with 38 votes.


Yeah but

The only other two coaches to receive more than five votes were Connecticut's Geno Auriemma and Kentucky's Kenny Brooks, who was still at Virginia Tech when the poll was taken.


I am always skeptical of polls and the selection criteria.

I would like to know "what poll"?
Who did it? Did they ask 95 players directly? Can any one of those 95 players confirm they were asked?

I would not be surprised by a push poll by a failing Mag!

I would love to know exactly WHO they polled anonymously. The answer may be anonymous but the participants were targeted. You can create the result you are seeking, as evidenced by political polls. It’s clear the players who actually play for her love her. She’s the same person that caused Alexis Morris to show up on her doorstep, with nothing but a duffel bag, saying “I need Kim Mulkey in my life”.

I call bullshite. The media just got their little feelings hurt. This is an all out effort to run her out of the game. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if she decided she doesn’t need the headache at this point in her life. She’s mentioned retirement several times this season. One unfinished goal she had was to “go home” to LSU and win the first NC in WBB and she’s done that. IMO she looks exhausted these days. This national war on Mulkey and LSU is infuriating.

Now we have the asshat Governor piling on. He is a POS for doing that. Where was the weasel when our girls were being called vile things in a national publication? No outrage to be found anywhere by administration or our so-called political leaders. The outcry was from others not connected to LSU. That is ridiculous.

As long has Mulkey can pull in 2-3 really good players a year, she will field competitive teams and have a shot every few years to win a title.

So, even if this poll is accurate, it really comes down to just needing a few players that want to compete and be coached hard. She doesn't need a ton of players to do that.

Last I looked, she is still recruiting well.

I agree, people need to be calling out the governor and explaining. In a polite way make him look like a dumbass. The problem is nobody from LSU is coming to bat defending the University. This is sad. All LSU has to do is get a statement from Army head coach why they weren't present for the National anthem during the football game.

It is obvious, them Army boys are just unpatriotic, woke, mama boys, leftists, commies. How could any God fearing American patriot not be present for the National Anthem?

You can have their votes anonymous but should say who the players were.

I am not sure I have ever seen a post get all down votes until this one.

Just think about it, the media who already has shown to have it out for Kim because she is unapologetically conservative and refuses to bow down like so many of these other coaches and calls the media our public ally over and over when they do hit pieces or write crap like “dirty debutants”.
Why wouldn’t you believe that they would do a “poll” with anonymous sources and falsify the whole thing to diss her again? I personally believe the whole thing is a lie and they didn’t ask anyone or skewed it to players that either played for Staley and against Mulkey(probably lost to her a lot)

One is White and the other is black. What do you think the slant will be from the left? They have the rant whining and bitching about labeling her a MAGA and about labeling her an anthem protestor.

The rant needs to get its testicles back in working order and stop the crying and being victims over words and women’s basketball.

The rant has gained estrogen posters without actually gaining any more women posters.

Nahh I'm definitely skeptical of it too. Just pointing out that poster clearly didn't read the article if that was his point.

Should have just said it's the MSM with an ax to grind in an anonymous poll and we should all take it with a huge heaping of salt.

We know BYU players wouldn’t vote for Staley

Big surprise, athletes in a sport that’s predominantly black don’t want to play for white people. This will never, ever change. Black people will ALWAYS choose “their own” even if it kills them.
