This marks the third time Coach Mulkey has been named AP Coach of the Year. She earned the award in 2012 and 2019 as well, both seasons in which she led Baylor to national championships. Coach Mulkey was also a finalist for Naismith Coach of the Year this season.
It has been nearly one year since Coach Mulkey came home to Louisiana to lead the Tigers. She took over a team that finished the previous season with a 9-13 record.
“Be patient – understand it will not happen overnight,” Coach Mulkey said on April 26, 2021, at her introductory press conference.
The Tigers went 26-6 during her first season, winning their most games since the 2007-08 season. They finished No. 2 in the SEC and were ranked No. 9 in the final AP Poll of the season. LSU was 6-1 against ranked opponents in Coach Mulkey’s debut season and the Tigers hosted March Madness games as a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament, winning their first NCAA Tournament game since 2014.
