Just pay the Baylor coach whatever it takes

It is when an 11 seed has to beat a 3 seed on it’s home court to advance to the Sweet Sixteen, versus the men’s teams playing at neutral sites.

Not even comparable. The women's sweet sixteen still has about half of its teams that aren't very good.

 

[lynnh]

He might

And add a bonus of all mascara she would use for life...…...

 

[branchvol]

you're right TF ... better odds that rosie o'donnell will be crowned Miss Universe.

So there's a chance then??!!

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

Revenue is less problem than the net profit.

lol. I would imagine they are pretty strongly correlated.

We can dream. But let’s be realistic, she ain’t leaving Waco. I think people in the WBB world would be at us if we did.

 

[TAD]

haha ..seriously .. no way she leaves a program she has built up to a power .. to go to a school that has just sat by and watched a Coach just run it in the ground ... I have been saying this since Holly was fired ..we dont have the $$$$$ to hire a big name at this time ..too much money has been spent to try get the money flowing back in for football which makes the $$$ to support all the other sports .... no the money we will have to spend will be around what Holly made .. we have to pay her buyout plus possible a buyout for the next coach .. dont look for any top 10 team coaches to come and try to live in the shadow of Pat and have to answer to that each game .....

I’m prepared to be very underwhelmed.

Sad but true.

A three seed is nothing. There are not 12 good teams in the women's game.

She so reminds me of Coach Summit. She is a no nonsense old school coach that gets the best out of her players. If she can recruit at Baylor she can recruit here.

It's probably already been covered; but didn't KM play at Baylor? She isn't going anywhere. BAYLOR IS The UT of the past.

Dolly's fixups can't hide the age in those eyes. What a beauty She was in the 70's on the PW Show. Google some of that. Geeze.

Nope. La Tech.

Agree. Spend the money. Anyone else will be a blue-light Zzzz special.

7 seconds on Google can save your reputation.

I agree that she isn't leaving, but I would still sit down and talk to her. Great coaches in all sports know what skills it takes to win at a high level and they usually know what head coaches or some assistants that has those traits. That could be valuable info to our AD.

 

[livefaith]

Well heck! If she's hanging with Dolly then get it done!!!

 

[FranklinVFL]

It's not the Tennessee way to open up the pocketbook. I wish it were, but history has shown us it's not.

New sheriff appears to open up more pocketbooks than previous ADs. At least, we are seeing football write big contracts and Barnes will get a sizable bump too.

I hate to admit this, however, it is doubtful we have one iota of a chance of getting a top five coach unless we are willing to break the bank. We may have to find a non-power 5 coach with a lot of upsides. When and if such a choice is made, we need to stop complaining until that person has a chance to prove they can do the job. We need to trust PF on this one. Some of us are trying to find a reason for being unhappy before we have a ligament reason. Allow the process to play out.

 

[LA Vol]

Which Top 5 HC-- or Top 10 HC, for that matter-- do people think UT could lure with money? Forget Walz.

Phil: "make it rain" on Kim Mulkey!

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

She would never leave Baylor at this point in her career

Translation: $2 million signing bonus, buyout and $2.5 million a year. Money well spent if we do it.

How much revenue do the Lady Vols actually generate when everything is clicking?

These are the comments from Mulkey that make me think “maybe, just maybe.”
