I don't know who the hell this person is but, so often, reporters and outsiders with, I assume, a decent level of intelligence, twist Mulkey's words to meet their agenda.
Kim clearly stated that this reporter has repeatedly called her over the past two years and she has refused to speak with him after reading and responding to his prior piece on LSU and Brian Kelly. In that piece, Writer Babb tries to paint LSU as some unfair employer with their priorities out of whack. Their example is an unidentified employee who gets paid several thousand dollars per year while Kelly as Head football coach is paid millions of dollars per year. He uses LSU as am example and the villain in his piece despite Kelly being, at the time, the 7th highest paid FB HC in college football? He puts a throwaway line in his article that LSU is not the only school paying big bucks for FB HCs. One of his "inside" sources is Collis Temple who got his education and his 2 sons education from LSU by playing basketball. Free tuition, free housing, free meals, free medical care, dental care, eye care...Not sure what Collis Temple has against LSU.
Then, in her presser, Kim said Babb called her just as she's preparing her team for the tournament and she again told him NO. She then went onto share that she had discovered from prior players, Assistants, and other personnel that Babb had lied to them telling her former associates that Kim was helping him with his article.
Obviously, Ms. Bernstein has her own agenda for who knows what reason. It is also clear that Babb, a SC graduate, never took a class on journalistic ethics or integrity.
Should he publish his article, he should be sure he has the permission & written consent from his contributors. For consent obtained under false pretenses will not help him. I have no doubt he is a true believer in St. Staley. I don't recall Kim being a target while at Baylor. Why now? Why LSU? Who benefits if a negative article affects our recruiting in a negative way?

They fired Johnny Jones as head men’s BB coach. Johnny was Collis’ guy, and Collis has a WAY outsized view of what his role in the hoops program should be.

It's worse than that.
They did name the guy who only makes $12k per year. He's a grad student and he pays no tuition, just like........almost every single grad student with a teaching aid position throughout the course of higher education history.
This "journalist" also doesn't seem to understand that Brian Kelly is paid from a totally different pot.
He's just a hack.

Especially since he had his candidate hired as LSU President even though he had missed the application deadline and had not submitted anything. Last time I checked, LSU is a public institution. That means they follow the hiring protocol of the State. The process was not followed when hiring the current President.
Don't get me wrong, this is not an indictment of Dr. Tate as I think he has done a good job so far. This is CT not following the law.
