re: Mulkey is the female Saban

Jay Johnson is the Saban of baseball!

Saban was the Skip Bertman of Football. That would be more appropriate.

As much as we love her, some mid-west people I deal with talk about her like she's the worst person in the world.

That's because of one thing and one thing only - how she has been framed by media using their perception of her social and political views. I'm convinced that is the issue. There is a corner of the sports media world, particularly print media journalists, that take bits and pieces of what she says (or in some cases doesn't say) or has said in the past and completely paints her with a broad brush, when I suspect based on what I hear from a lot of the commentators of the game and ex-players, is a totally mis-framed version of who this woman is. The fact that people these days can't separate political views and personal feelings is a true tragedy of the media age.

Was that really necessary?

Gay.

Hahaha!!!! Saban won with more than recruiting. Credit where credit it due.

When you are successful you will collect a lot of people that don't like you. The haters actually wish they were like her but would never say so.

More like female coach O

To really know, Saban would have to put on heels

But she doesn't have 2 balls.

She has three!

She’s more than a coach that caught lightening in a bottle one time.

I mean from a personality standpoint. She has these press conferences where she’s just talking out of her mind all over the place saying dumb things because “she don’t care what people think about her”

Sorry to burst your bubbles, but Mulkey is probably the least likeable coach in all of college athletics. She has been long before she came to LSU. Doesn’t bother me if she wins, but she’s pure white trash.
