I just laugh at these folks who think we can get a LaTech alum to come here to coach. Mulkey isn't coming here, period.


Aren't you the person who said Nikki was going to immediately be great, worth every nickel, and she and Bob Starkey would have an SEC championship and a Final Four within their first three years?

I doubt Mulkey will ever be our coach, either, but you have been spectacularly wrong on some of your previous predictions.

Nope, that wasn't me. Nikki has never coached with Bob Starkey so, I'd have never made that statement. When the hire was made I definitely think she was well worth the money..................and I still do. She was able to get her MARKET VALUE for a salary. LSU values women's basketball and is willing to pay second tier money ($500k - $1 million) for a good coach. When they lured Nikki from UCLA she was one of the young up and coming coaches and her record at UCLA confirmed that. In fact, her first two seasons at LSU confirmed it as well. Right now she's going through a SIX GAME slide. As horrible as it is, it's not a reflection on her six seasons as a head coach. Now......................if this trend continues into NEXT season, then there'll be reason for concern.
