She absolutely deserves it!*



*finished 14th in CUSA her last season as a head coach


Twitter pundits are already saying she would TOTALLY connect the entire Louisiana basketball fanbase to the Pelicans because she's a LA hero

Average fans are laughing at us and inviting Zion to come to their team "when he's done in grade school"

SVG’s bledsoe infatuation and love was quite obvious if you ever watched postgame pressers. He loved the fricking guy lol

Being a black female should not be the main qualification.


Here are her qualifications:

1) She is a woman
2) She is black
3) The players like her.

The question you have to ask yourself is:

IF she was not a black female, would you want her for this job based on resume?

The answer is:

99 percent of Louisiana basketball fans outside of Ruston don't know who she is.

How many people in the city of New Orleans can match this resume? I'd say the list is at least a hundred long.

Jacque Vaughn. Seriously. WTF is Griffin doing.



You all repeat with me, Griff is TERRIBLE at coach hires.

I mentioned it before we hired him but it, his drafting history, along with his general tendency to be the greatest Rube Goldberg trade machine artist in the league, is why I was skeptical of Griff from the onset.

He better prove me wrong because this probably just became a Zion defining year.

We are a joke of an organization that is ran by a snake oil salesman. Conventional wisdom leads you to believe that we will hire tspoon and soak up the headlines.

Yep. Stated it before and will say it again. I believe from what I have heard that she has Zion's strong endorsement. She also has relationships with the players and would not be starting from scratch. There are fences to mend. Also she will be much cheaper than a former HC.

Has nothing to do with politics and everytthing to do with Zion.

i'm gonna hold out hope that Gayle signed off on dumping Stan because she disliked his political bullshite.. and therefore hiring a black female coach to get pats on the back from the media is not at the top of her wishlist

Exactly. Any “pundit” who says she will “unite” Louisiana basketball fans has no idea about the state of Louisiana. I’m a Tech grad from North Louisiana who spent a decade living in New Orleans. Nobody in South Louisiana except for Tech grads care about Louisiana Tech or even know much about it. It’s sad but true.

if someone really believes that the video coordinator is under consideration of the pelicans' head coach job, then their iq isn't worthy of being worried about.


Isnt that how Spoelstra started?

I was saying yesterday that Stan was not safe, that BI hated him , and Stan needed to go. Peeople on this site think everything is political now. Stan is as liberal as they come, but the players hated him. The days of old guy's cracking the whip is coming to an end.

Witherspoon has a head start with player evaluation, has Zion's backing, and is cheap. The org also thinks highly of her. But keep viewing the world in nothing but a political lens.
