NCAAW Baylor/Oregon State: Kim Mulkey behavior

[ballgame99]

I must have turned the channel right before this happened. I can tell you that for most of the first quarter and the start of the second she was non-stop yapping at the officials. So this wasn't some out of the blue reaction. She seems like one of those coaches that is just exhausting to have to deal with.

On the play, the bigger girl may have come over and bumped her a little, but the offensive player created the majority of that contact, hence the no-call. Great whack by the C, and he needed some backup from his partners while reporting. Get her out of his face.

Same sh!t, different year.

Mulkey's jacket has its own Twitter feed now.

Social media is a fun place.

Whack, get out.

Partners let the calling official down big time.

Thanks JRut! Can we get the clip of her reaction to the call in the last minute of the fourth quarter, when you get the chance?

I will do it tonight when I get home. Any particular play she was going nuts over or just the entire minute? Either way works.

Peace

The one I recall was the foul with about 7 seconds left when OSU's PG drove and was fouled. Hit 2 FTs to put us up 3.

I saw the wave off too and I was talking loudly to the TV the official needed to dump her. OSU goggles not withstanding she needed to listen to the last possession from the locker room.

Easy for you to say.

Ejecting a coach in any game, let alone a game with this much visibility, requires a lot more than what Mulkey did during that sequence. That post-technical reaction wouldn't get her tossed from my HS game.

And I am not a fan of Mulkey at all. I think that perhaps if she got a few more technicals during the season she might not act like this seemingly every NCAA tournament when things aren't going her way.

I just don't get what is and isn't deserving of a technical when I watch NCAA games any more.

The coach in this case gets teched up for throwing an article of her own clothing behind her bench. I know what she did and why she is doing it so I'm ok with officials T'ing her up.

But post T she gets to foot stomp and blister the reporting official, then for the rest of the game continue to gripe. Then late wave people off curse and complain. . .

The jacket is automatic, I believe.

Throwing a jacket has always been automatic. Any crew that lets that go would have to explain that one to the supervisor. If Mulkey was going to get tossed I would've been much more likely to whack her for what she did at the end of the game than what she did following the first T.

That's an opportunity for me to get in a few words myself.

What about reaction(s)? With how she acted throughout the game after the first T I'm not sure I have an issue with a ref saying seeya~
