You have to be kidding on the stress thing. Would you like a job where you had to keep 11 or 12 women happy all the time so there would be good team chemistry? And all the missed layups, poor defense, careless turnovers and bad shot choice? Come on, you can tell Mulkey has aged because of it. Basketball is stressful no matter the gender because so much happens so fast that you have little control over.

It is such a myth that he put that championship team together. It was LUCK!! Nobody knew Joe Burrow was going to be that good. He wasn't the first year. It was the next summer when he worked with his receivers every day that he developed into the qb we know today. Likewise he inherited one of the best DC in the country and lucked into a guy from the Saints that nobody gave any credit to and was very young. Yeah, he made the final decisions but other people discovered them for them and it wasn't as though he had a lot of options.

To think that McMahon's players left, and we are only talking about five players that had eligibility left, because of Wade is ridiculous. They left because they wanted to leave a place where they had only had failure to start over with a clean slate. Probably, they also wanted more money. And do you know if Wade even made an offer to any of them? Get real, you are really a negative idiot.

Don't you get that any money or property Coach O had at the end of his LSU tenure was also divided in half at the time of divorce? Have you ever heard about income tax that takes 37% right off the top, property tax, brokers fees, etc. Not to mention he was maintaining a house in Baton Rouge and a condo on Miami Beach and had to buy gifts for his girlfriends. You are correct that I don't have proof of his finances but the circumstantial evidence is pretty strong. The main thing is that the $100,000 LSU is going to pay him this time is post divorce income that his wife can't touch, so he will be assured living expenses outside of the settlement. Oh yeah, wouldn't you love to see his lawyer fees as he went through the divorce and then when she sued for half the buyout and it was appealed several times?

Let's hope he works harder than he did those last two years at LSU. I will never forgive him for letting us go from a national champion to those horrible crap years.Credit for the championship should go to Brady and Aranda.

What you should be worried about is that processed food is killing you.

I do know that Shaq has said he will never fund any NIL money because he resents today's players and thinks they have it too easy.

Mulkey is a good coach obviously but her real strengths are recruiting and motivation. Recruiting is not nearly as important in the NIL era. So a good coach yes but not worth 3 million and yes in women's basketball you can get another good coach for much less. She loved Woodward so much because she was given one of his outrageous contracts.

Someone messed up on this. I was around in those days and Starkey never coached men's basketball here. Go to LSUsports.net and do roster for either of the two years Chris Jackson played or the three years that Shaq did. Look at the coaching staff. Dale Brown and three assistants, none of whom were Bob Starkey.

When did Starkey coach men's basketball? LSUsports.net shows him as only an assistant coach on the women's team from 1989 to 2006. He apparently did not coach Chris Jackson, Shaq or Stanley Roberts.

And you saddle yourself with a ton of long term debt which over time eats up any increase in short term profit. You would have to charge a huge amount of money for the new seats which probably doesn't happen because of politics.
