And LSU thought Pokey needed to go--she has coached for two different WNBA teams since, currently with the Indiana Fever.

Sadly, they did need to let Pokey go. Her actions put them in a an awkward position where the university could be caught in the middle of lawsuits regarding favorable treatment and sexual harassment. Not saying that it would have automatically lost, but it would not have looked good. Outside the realm of sports, plenty of CEOs, when presented with information that a high-ranking employee was sleeping with a subordinate, would have done the same thing.

I hated it, because Pokey was a great coach, and because her being an LSU alum was a great story.

But, Skip had no choice.
