Look. At the end of the day it’s Kim’s job to put the team in the best position to win.

Maybe Kim initially thought HVL could fit in a role. But with injuries and general depth issues the plan changes.

Thanks to HVL for her service but let’s not pretend that Kim is some idiot that has no clue how to win. She’s done it everywhere including LSU.

Is HE now coaching the LSU women's basketball team, or a member of the staff thatwe don't know about? Sounds like he interfered with the LSU coaching staff.

She was definitely overhyped. Slow feet, can't create her own shot off the dribble, and not fast enough to drive to the basketball. Nothing against her because she gave it 100% but she won't be missed.

This trainer sounds full of it. It didn’t workout, move on. Tired of the constant bashing of LSU.


but it's okay to bash a female athlete who always had a great attitude...?

Perhaps his shitty training routine failed her. That's how I will choose to see it.

Do you think her trainer just made that rhetoric up? You don’t think HVL might’ve had the attitude that she sucked this year because she wasn’t being “used correctly” and passed that along to him?

Having third parties put out 30 minute videos bashing your coach isn’t a great attitude

no, training only has a minimal impact.

A player's natural ability is what's vastly more important.

I saw HVL take a lot of shots . I also saw HVL make a shite ton of turnovers. I also saw HVL look slow and unable to defend. None of that is on the coaches. You can either play against top talent or you cannot. It’s actually that simple. At the end of the day it’s basketball. You either have the ability or you don’t.

HVL has the ability. Not sure why some games she was hot and others cold. All she needs is consistency. She can be a star anywhere with that.

Tf did that have to do with HVL throwing up bricks and turnovers?

She shot the 3rd lowest FG % on the team. Sounds like she needs a different trainer.

Hope it’s not someplace where they expect her to play defense !

Her guarding CC was some of the worst and most mindless defense I’ve ever seen at any level.

HVL was up in CCs face as soon as she crossed half court like we were worried she was going to shoot as soon as she crossed half court, and CC would just take it around her over and over again. As opposed to adjusting and not letting her go around. Took me back to the Les Miles football days doing the same thing over and over and not changing.

We don’t care about HVL anymore. Thank you for your time here. Bye.
