Dawn Staley dismissed Mulkey's success last year intimating there was little difference between Kim Mulkey and Nikki Fargas

They still play with the same grit,” Staley said when asked about Fargas’ team last season. “I thought Nikki did a great job getting the most of out of ’em. I mean, if she got the support that Kim is getting – you know ... If Nikki got a chance to do that, maybe she would still be sitting here.

The Jan 2022 USC message board thread that followed is chock full of schadenfreude fun.

quote:

Oh lord Dawn has upset the lsu fan base and all 7k new lsu women's basketball fans ??. According to their comments Mulkey is taking over the sec and they have arrived. Even as far as guaranteed the next game is different.....think they don't realize we were missing players still. But they are probably right, next time will be different as it won't be a close match up. But tiger fans go eat a corndog and go listen to your new norther southern football coach give another ridiculous speech.
quote:

That's because the Swamp Taters think they've found a leader to displace Dawn Staley. LOL! Let 'em rave. It ain't gonna happen!
quote:

excactly, they are spinning this 6 point loss as a "we're getting better, that last coach sucked" thing for recruiting purposes and according to LSU they will surely beat us next year... and after that! once Boston is gone it's over! Mulkey is the next Saban! only a 6 point loss!

Fact is they were out coached and outplayed and don't want to admit it.
quote:

Right now I don't think Carolina is overly concerned with her or LSU.
quote:

Mulkey's challenge lies in the future. I have no doubt she'll get them to the tournament regularly, but still yet to be seen if she can duplicate her success she had at Baylor. That was a lot of success!

This seemed reasonable enough.

1 year ago USCe was the alpha in women's basketball, today they are struggling with the reality of being replaced. To make it worse it is by an in-conference team.

LSU established a sustainable brand this year and won a championship. South Carolina won 1, a lot of games and has a very angry woman as a coach. That wasn’t sustainable

Feels like some strong racial undertones here but whatever

I never realized how important women’s basketball was to SC fans

They’re coming after LSU baseball now too which is even more pathetic. Best program this century they say

Facts. Just wait till Mulkey takes over the top of the basketball world. The race cards from Staley will be flying more than cards fly at a casino.

Staley knew this too, and deep down recognized her reign as Queen Bee was rapidly coming to an end. When confronted with this reality, she did what many in her community do…play the race card.

Mediocre coaches like easy paths. Nikki at LSU made her path easy. Not to mention the race aspect. Of course Staley wishes Fargas was still LSU’s coach.

She just needs to retire and go work for BLM already.
