When Mulkey left there was a thought that Rhodes doesn't care about WBB and that that Mulkey's salary could be moved to men's sports. Now that we are 2-4, think this is the results he was looking for??

His boss cares about women's basketball..so your point is moot.

But I'm talking less about the decision and more about the salary getting moved to men's sports and are we seeing the results from that money.

letting kim walk means that neither mack nor his boss can care about wbb.

This point is moot .Kim left of her own will and accord.

She's done many interviews where she told the LSU AD to just pay me and my assistants what were making now .

So it wasn't about money..She got all huffy and left.

Even Jerome Tang said there was tensions between the programs.

It is a supervisor's job to foster an environment of trust and mutual respect between themselves and their employees, as well as to manage difficult personalities.

There are numerous ways to do that. It has been proven time and again that money does not equate to fulfillment. People want to feel appreciated, respected and that their contributions matter.

Kim left because she didn't feel valued. It wasn't about her compensation - it was about being appreciated and respected. Have a championship level coach who has a rough personality? Deal with it. That was Choades job and he failed.

not that my opinion matters but the choice for arena placement was poor

it should have been right next to the old one

Maybe for the checker at Walmart.

If she didn't feel valued and respected that was her problem.

I 100% agree. And who cares, it's woman's basketball, move on. Remember when our stellar woman's basketball program saved us in realignment? Oh ya, it didn't, it never even got brought up once bc in the grand scheme of things, it really doesn't matter.

Kim did that to herself. Time to move on

Moronic post….. plenty care about WBB. In fact for a good while it was the only sport BU had worth a ***** The disrespect for one of the greatest WBB coaches ever by some of these "fans" is laughable

I hope you value the women in your life more than your statement reflects.

Anyone think she would have left for anywhere else than to Louisiana (LSU)? Home means something, especially as you get older. I would have gone no matter what I was offered at Baylor. If you aren't of retirement age or close to it and are living away from a place you love, you can't understand. I don't think any of it was about money. Personally if I was her, I would have taken a pay cut. I can see why she has been reinvigorated. Getting home has seemed to have given her new energy.

She wanted more input in the new basketball arena, and in general wanted more power, authority and respect. Unfortunately, it's women's basketball and you can only get so much there.

Perhaps because she's back at home, she won't require so much in order to stay. But she could end up being just as much of a problem at LSU if she makes the same demands there as she did at Baylor.

i have seen a few people mention things along that line and that she wanted the arena next to the old one

if this was indeed true i would have to agree with her on that one

Yep ..Drew wanted it where it is..Kim wanted it next to Ferrell ..

I guess she assumed the administration was valuing Scott's opinion more than hers . You'll have to get into her brain to figure that out.

I think we all can agree that Drew is a good person..who likes to tweet a lot of nice words to others Baylor and non Baylor related.

I don't remember one tweet from him when she left..if there was one and you can dig it up I'll offer a mea culpa.

I thought it was more than just the location of the arena. Wanting better facilities for women's basketball in general, being a diva about where she parked, stuff like that.

"I ain't going to lie, it's so much more pleasant around the office. We can go in their gym, they can go in ours. We can be in the weight room when they're in there. They're in there working out in the morning, they do staff workouts when we're in there lifting together. There is a peace that exists."

Also told a story about how as soon as Mulkey left, Scott had the name plates taken off the two HC parking spots and just had "head coach" put on both so they could park in either one. The first day Nicki was there she took the second spot a little further away from the arena.

"I took a picture of that and sent it to Scott and said, 'She's one of us.""

She was jealous of the attention the men's program received after winning the natty.

So much incorrect info here

Yes, she was a very successful coach. But extremely high maintenance and hard to work with according to many.

She as well as us are better off with her departure.

It is a supervisor's job to foster an environment of trust and mutual respect between themselves and their employees.

There are numerous ways to foster a good working environment for your employees. It has been proven time and again that money does not equate to fulfillment. People want to feel appreciated, respected and that their contributions matter.

Kim left because didn't feel valued. It wasn't about her compensation - it was about being appreciated and respected. That was Choades job and he failed.
Kim was given every level of respect, every dime, and every courtesy the AD and University could possibly give her. Yet she wanted MORE MORE MORE!!! To what end???!!! The supervisors did everything they could to foster an environment of mutual respect.

When you have one in the fold of such obdurate and outwardly demanding character with an insatiable level of ME FIRST/ME ONLY asperation, you are in a no-way forward situation involving that character.

I'm not sure how any of y'all can think they DIDN'T APPRECIATE HER or HER CONTRIBUTIONS DIDN"T MATTER. It's beyond idiotic.

No. Absolutely no reason for it to be in the FC parking lot. None whatsoever.

She definitely was high maintenance and difficult. And she might have just wanted to go.

But Baylor is not better off.
