rape-enabling? Over the top don't you think? Not even.
"This is a great institution, The problems we have at Baylor are no different than the problems at any other school in America. Period. Find another story to write."
Her words (immediately after Baylor's head FB coach, AD and University Pres were either fired or forced to resign in disgrace).
She is lower than snake sh*t.
Here is her apology and explanation. "I hate that I used the remark about punching them in the face," Mulkey told ESPN Sunday. "That was not literal. I was trying to make a point, to be firm in what you are saying back at them. I'm not a violent person. I apologize for the very poor choice of words."
The coach who has led Baylor to two national championships told ESPN that the news conference comments were directed at a particular reporter who she accused of "digging and digging" at her and were not meant to marginalize the alleged sexual assault victims at the school.
"Not only do I sympathize with victims, I am angry about the way victims were treated at this university," Mulkey told ESPN. "It is horrible, horrible anytime someone does not take care of a victim. Even one sexual assault is too many. Nobody is dismissing what happened here. I want us to get to the bottom of it."

Why the F didn't she say that the first time?
And it's the reporter's fault??
It was only when she caught some serious blowback that she realized how much she was further damaging her program and her own personal reputation. THEN came the apology/explanation/justification.
Sorry. Coming from the most prominent woman in Baylor University Athletics it is way too little, way too late.

This is some additional explanation. She reminds me of the ASU coach, only a little more over the top in her actions during a game.
Her comments have been met with some backlash regarding the invitation of violence to a parent concerned about sexual assault but Mulkey clarified her in the moment comments later.
"I'm tired of people talking on a national scale that don't know what they're talking about," Mulkey said to the press. "This is a great institution. I'd send my daughter here and I'd pay for anybody else's daughter to come here. I work here everyday, I'm in the know. And I'm tired of hearing it. This is a great institution. The problems we have at Baylor are no different than the problems at any other school in America. Period. Find another story to write."

That does not make me feel any better about Baylor or Mulkey. Maybe she should have been shown the door right along with Briles, McCaw and Starr for a complete and thorough housecleaning of all the "in the know" folks.

Come on. It wasn't Baylor's WBB program that was the problem. That would be like telling Rueck he had to be let go because of the Brenda Tracy problem. Has no relation other than being employed by the same institution as the football coach.

I guess we’ll have to leave it at that. |

I played baseball for a long time, and one thing I know is that baseball players generally look like ass-holes. That said, just looking at this guy makes you want to slap his mother in the face. I don't think it's a coincidence he was drafted by the Cardinals. SaveSave |
