PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

On the one hand, the odds of any other team being able to win just about tripled.

On the other, megacrap.

Not that way. Never that way.

Yeah, it would have been nice for her to go out on her own terms, but the Alzheimer's is becoming more and more obvious. There were reports that she was starting to have to brace herself by holding onto tables while meeting with people or the media, for example.

One of the most impactful coaches in any sport, male or female, and she'll certainly be missed.

I hadn't yet heard that part about having to brace herself, but if they already had Holly Warlick basically running the show and doing all the interviews, she must be deteriorating faster than they had expected. She, as well as her family, staff and AD, probably didn't want to risk her having some kind of public incident, or risk her declining so fast that she became unable to appear in public in the middle of next season, so they probably decided it was best for her to take a less public role now between seasons.

Very sad to hear about this. She has certainly been one-of-a-kind as a coach.

I love this video, where she really shows her commmitment to the school.

How could she have been coaching for 38 years and only be 59 years old? Wow.

She had originally taken a grad assistant's job, then the previous coach quit at the last minute to start on a doctorate, so they offered her the head job and she took it. That's how she wound up starting so young.

Alzheimer's is a hard thing to deal with, my sympathies go to those who suffer the disease and the care givers.

Leon Barmore seems to also be suffering from a degenerative disease of some kind, possible also Alzheimer's. He shows up on the sidelines of his former student Kim Mulkey's games, and seems to be pretty shakey. Leon coached the Louisiana Tech teams that brought women's basketball to national attention in the early eighties, and IMO is the coach most responsible for Women's Basketball being the sport that it is.
