Why do you think they call them "stories"?
Louisiana Tech University
Flagship of the University of Louisiana System
Isn't that pretty much how it went down. Another great athletic decision on the part of Oakes and Reneau. If I'm wrong someone please enlighten me.
I just don't understand why she couldn't accept 4? It's not like Tech is/was big on firing coaches back then, even a modicum of success would have gotten her a contract renewal....
Not only could she not accept 4, but they promised one more year in another capacity if it didn't work out. That is 5! Also, from what I heard, 5 year contracts could not be done in Louisiana at the time. That changed when lsu wanted to do one later. I think Mulkey was an exceptional coach and I hate it happened. I, also, hate that she can't let go; however, there comes a time when we have to let it go. I get tired of hearing about it now. I was more angry with her than D.R. at the time, but no one can deny that she is one H of a recruiter and coach. It helped that she took a couple of our recruits with her and started it out right over there. Once you get in the top 5, it is much easier to recruit top 5 players, and that makes it much easier to win a National Championship.
I hate it for her, because one day not being able to let things go will get to you..........
I just think it's funny that this article came out right after the girls got beat down in the tourney. Obviously she is watching us. Talk about kicking a Dawg while it's down.
Oh P L E A S E! You have no idea what people are like to live with or why they split up! I normally find merit if your posts whether I agree or not, but on this, you simply have no idea. Please leave her personal life out of your dislike for her. That truly was the most "out there" post I have ever seen you make.
She did give Tech props in her interview after the selection show. I wrote down what she said and added it to the Mulkey thread up in the wbb forum if you want to see what she had to say. She didn't have to mention Tech at all.
Get off your high horse! I lived two just down the hall from Randy for three years and practiced with him every day over that same time period. I certainly do know something about what it's like to "live" with him and that is exactly about which I commented. I only lightly follow the Lady Techsters and do not know Mulkey, so I have no personal dislike for her. But I know one of the personalities, and there have been volumes written about the other. If I was betting on where the problem most notably lay, that would be an easy bet.
