It was time to move on. Kim did good things here although when you look at body of work, she underachieved significantly only winning 3 titles in over 20 years with the teams she has had. She cannot outcoach teams when she gets to a certain point in the tournament most years. Her treatment of players was extremely poor at times and it hurt us in recruiting believe it or not, and this is coming from a few high profile AAU coaches. Players talk and word gets around about what goes on behind the scenes.
A bigger issue is she was becoming very toxic for those in the know behind the scenes. There is a reason Mack and others are happy she is gone. There is also a bigger reason Kim was failing to connect with recruits the last few years, people know why... Karma is a real thing.
The fact that some want Kim's name on the court is laughable. Nothing remotely special or deserving for that to happen.
Lets move forward. I am excited to watch Nicki contend for titles and be in more final fours frequently. Kim can go enjoy her gumbo and paycheck sitting at home come tourney time every other year. She is checked out and LSU was dumb enough to take the bait without doing their due diligence.
