At least we know Leon wouldn't work for the "Evil Empire". Hope he comes home to work with whichever set of "Bigs" TSpoon can gather, after this years failed attempt at a Final Four/NC for Baylor.Originally Posted by Dwayne From Minden

What a mean-spirited statement. Tech would have done backflips if they could have landed Griner.
She is changing the game, just as others have before her, just as others will who follow her. She is a phenom and only petty, jealous, simple-minded people take it to a personal level to ridicule her because of her appearance and mannerisms.
Love how you referred to Baylor's success as a "failed attempt" at a Final Four. At least they are realistically a national program. If their program had a "failed attempt" then the Techster program had another "failed attempt" at relevance as well.
Neither is the case, in my opinion.
That's what it was and I thought she did a poor job of coaching last night as well.
I agree that she was outcoached, but the truth is if it had not been A&M for the 4th time, Baylor would have had a much better chance to win that game.
The consensus on the Baylor board is that Kim did a poor job of coaching this one, but it's awfully tough to win four in one year, especially over a team coached by someone as good as Gary Blair. The NCAA really screwed Baylor with that seeding setup. The Aggies should have been the team to knock Tennessee out of the tourney, not Baylor.
Still, I'll give Kim a bit of a pass. That '05 NC was almost completely about coaching. Sophia Young was the only player on Baylor's team who could have played for LSU, and they still thumped the Tiggers. That's some pretty good coaching--and involved some very astute mid-game adjustments. I think she's been leaning too much on BG and needs to go back to coaching a complete team game.
And the idea that BG gets all the calls is just comical. The problem the refs have is that they'd foul every member of the other team out in the first half if they called all the times she gets fouled. It's just absurd how much teams get away with pushing and shoving her around.
Point remains, whether or not she did a "poor" job of coaching, her team was playing on the national stage, as they always do, while ours was blown out and embarrassed on a "home court." She may have been out-coached by another Techster alum, but she is by far one of the best and most respected coaches in the nation and is definitely one of the top four teams in the country right now and will be again next season.
Okay, Baylor fan, you can take your crap back to your own board now. YOU LOST!
FWIW, I agree with this. Which probably also means Leon did a poor job as well.
As did Tech when they let Kim get away. :icon_wink:Okay, Baylor fan, you can take your crap back to your own board now. YOU LOST!
