Can someone add controversies?
editThe subject has been involved in controversies that are not mentioned in this article. Her defense of Baylor and former football coach Art Briles and their handling of multiple rapes. She made a public apology for her comments about punching people in the face, and the apology also should be included.
And there is nothing about Britney Griner -- either about their time together at Baylor or Mulkey's refusal to comment about Griner's Russian imprisonment.
I do understand that many coaches over time pressed players to stay in the closet. Care should be taken to treat Mulkey's conduct in context. Landisr (talk) 23:11, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
- I tried to very level headedly refer to the 2013 Sports Illustrated article quoting Griner's claim that Mulkey told players to remain closeted, and it was removed by the bot. I know maybe two or three things about Kim Mulkey - that being one of them. There should be a reference to this in the article. The absence of the information smacks more of bias than including it does. Jmanjman1 (talk) 15:21, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- I added a section on controversies, please add more context if you feel it's necessary. This is newly relevant with Mulkey's recent statement against the forthcoming Washington Post article. I did not add Mulkey's 2017 response to the Baylor sexual assault investigation. If somebody knows more details about that they could add.Rgm38 (talk) 14:21, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- I think that some of the page space given to her comments during the pandemic should be reduced. I'm not saying that she was in the right, just that she was one of several coaches who were frustrated with NCAA's policies and decisions across many different sports but particularly regarding the financial powerhouse sports of football and basketball. At the same time, it should be moved under the Controversies section.
- I read the WP article not knowing much about the controversies beyond her actions (or rather, inactions) during Griner's horrible ordeal and her poor public demeanor with on-air press. Now that the article is out, and other articles are picking up on it, it would be useful for someone to go through and clean up the Covid/Controversies sections.

Page Improvements
editI tried to clean up what I could in the main sections of the article to help improve citations. I also added some citation requests rather than just strip things out, again hoping that someone will come along - perhaps LSU's press office! - and clean up her page. At the very least, if someone would take a look at some of her peer coaches' pages to get a gist of the detail to include, etc... it'd go a long way toward improving this page.

- I came across a reference - but not a good source - about being the fastest coach to achieve 600 wins. It wasn't clear if this was an NCAA record, Women's BB, D1 and what it consists of: all wins, only conference & tourney, etc. CountryMama27 (talk) 22:36, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
