A disciple of Grep Popovich, a former professional basketball player, and a winning personality. As a bonus, the hire would make a splash.

It would make a splash in the media. Not with 17-18 year old HS males...

I bet our recruiting would be incredible.

No, because 17-18 year old high school males are more interested studying, baking cookies, knitting, reading Hemingway books and feeding pigeons.

Have no problem with this. If a multiple-title-winning NBA coach thinks that she is good enough to be on his staff, I don't see any problems. She gets respect from Popovich and that says something.

Speaking of a woman coaching MBB, I still think ISU missed an opportunity when it didn't hire Vivian Stringer during one of our coaching searches.

Ok, I'm starting to see an upside to this idea. Any more pics? Oh and how is she at X's and O's?

you guys do realize that pic was probably when she was earlier in her career. I honestly thought that was somebody else at first.

She was an assistant coach for the Spurs this year. First year. Pass.

If this happens we could talk about how good looking our coach is without the homoerotic undertones...well the guys could anyways.
