Once she heard she would probably lose her scholarship next year for not being on the court for the National Anthem, she entered the portal

I think Mulkey would have loved to have Hailey another year. I think she saw a lot of herself in Hailey and knew she had potential to be a lot better with one more year.

I think Hailey knows she made a huge mistake coming here. She was treated so brutally by so-called fans. I hope she kills it wherever she goes. She deserved better.

She will likely attempt to expand her NIL deals in a large media market. I suspect that Octagon that represents her suggested Los Angeles given the various outlets for her. I’ll take a guess and say she ends up at USC.

plantar injury


This could be a factor, it’s an injury that takes three or more months to heal and even then has a tendency to easily become re-inflamed.

Hey Tigerfan112……….

think she saw a lot of herself in Hailey and knew she had potential to be a lot better with one more year.


WTF, was that???????? Saw a lot how? Cause Hales wore the same braided hot blonde pigtails that Kimmy wore back in the 80’s?? Or because both were little blonde cocky hotties that could really hoop and kick your arse in HORSE?? I’m just spitballing here so you tell me baw. Look wasn’t a good fit so people move on. It’s over I mean nothing really ends well or it wouldn’t end dude. She did what was best for her after her and Kim had their end of season pow wow. Look I’ll bet Kim who’s a dam good coach and wants what’s best for them shot her straight and laid out everything and HVL said yeah maybe a fresh start is better for me.


PS. Do you really think Kim should have pulled rank or done something idiotic and made sure Poole could not enter or be thrown out if seen at the Travis Scott show? I heard Poole was there (BACKSTAGE IN FACT) with Nick Saban. Just sayin…..

Mutual decision would be my guess. But I am disappointed because there was so much negativity surrounding her from this past season and she did work her butt off to try to change positions for what best suited the team but wasn't the best fit for her.

I'm sure she could have come back if she chose but KM probably told her that her minutes would be going down.

Yes the level of stupid on here is mind boggling. One could assume that English is second language for a lot of these idiots.

dunno if it was recommended. I doubt Coach would run off a high caliber player.

But watching her game this year, you could tell something was "off". Either team chemistry or her role and new position or whatever. Who knows.

As usual, your post is right on. IMO, it was a mutual decision (both saw HVL at LSU can't be the PG so each moved on). HVL's problem is unless she gets faster/quicker somehow, she is going to have the same issue trying to play PG anywhere.

I wish some people would stop the turnover myth. First, her assist to turnover ratio at LSU was much better than at Louisville. And at LSU she handled the ball a lot more at PG. At LSU it was low IMO at essentially 1.5 to 1 in that ratio but add in the steals she made and it was very close to 2 to 1 ratio. Her problem at PG was not the turnovers. Her problem is that she clearly is a catch and shoot player or get a screen and shoot player. Add in the fact that SOME PGs could drive around her and she could rarely drive around them was the issue.

Why? The young lady did all she could for the team. No question Mulkey is a great coach. Her planned defense, though, against Clark didn’t rise to the level of grade school coach. Apparently she spent more time picking out her outfit? I wonder if there were internal issues?

I found her generally likeable other than her absurd fake ghetto speech pattern.

So she wasn't some points machine? Seemed to be a 100% effort on the floor type player to me. Fans can be dumb.
