[2] Since the inception of the NCAA women's tournament in 1982, Mulkey has participated as a player or coach every year except 1985 and 2003.

Contents

As head coach, her teams won NCAA championships at Baylor in 2005, 2012, and 2019 and at LSU in 2023. Mulkey is one of seven coaches to have led teams to more than one championship win, ranking third behind UConn's Geno Auriemma's 11 titles and former Tennessee coach Pat Summitt's 8 wins. [3]

Mulkey was inducted into the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in 2000 and into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2020. [2] [4] [5] [6]

In 2007, Mulkey penned her autobiography, titled Won't Back Down: Teams, Dreams and Family.

[9]

USA Basketball

Coaching career

Louisiana Tech

In 1985, Mulkey was hired as an assistant coach at Louisiana Tech under Leon Barmore then promoted to associate head coach in 1996 before leaving in 2000. Over her 15 years, Tech posted a 430–68 record and advanced to 7 Final Fours, winning the NCAA championship in 1988. [3] She was inducted into the College Sports Information Directors of America Academic Hall of Fame for her classroom achievements.[ citation needed ]

During the COVID-19 pandemic

Although the 2020 NCAA tournament was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Baylor made it to the Elite Eight of the 2021 tournament, held in an event isolation "bubble.” During the Elite Eight round, Mulkey advocated ending COVID-19 testing on the tournament players despite the ongoing pandemic. She stated during a press conference that the organization tasked with running the student tournament should "dump the COVID testing," despite not being asked about it by reporters. [14] She then stated more fully that, "Wouldn’t it be a shame to keep COVID testing, and then you got kids [testing] positive or something, and they don't get to play in the Final Four? So you need to just forget the COVID tests and let the four teams that are playing in each Final Four go battle it out." [15] Mulkey herself had tested positive for the virus earlier in the season, [14] and made the comments following her team's loss to UConn, a team that Baylor was supposed to face earlier in the season but was cancelled due to Mulkey's COVID diagnosis. [16] According to CBS News, her comments were later described by "many basketball fans" as "misinformed, dangerous and irresponsible." [17] Connecticut head coach Geno Auriemma later defended Mulkey's comments, noting the complexity of decisions during the pandemic particularly in the context of college sports. [18] [19]

After 21 seasons at Baylor, Mulkey departed for LSU in April 2021. In her second season, she led the Tigers to win the national championship for her fourth lifetime win as head coach. [20]

Controversies

Mulkey has been the subject of several controversies during her coaching career. [21] In 2013, star Baylor player Brittney Griner told ESPN that Mulkey advised student athletes to stay quiet about their sexual orientation, as being openly gay could hurt the reputation of the program at a religious school and inhibit recruiting efforts. [22] [21] Griner explained that while she respected Mulkey's coaching and the way Mulkey defended Griner from bullying, she did not appreciate Mulkey's request to cover her tattoos or delete social media posts about her girlfriend. [21] Griner detailed the pain caused by this experience in her 2014 memoir. [23] Several players defended Mulkey. [24]

In 2022, Mulkey received criticism when she refused to comment about Griner's detention in Russia. [21] [25] [26]

In March 2024, Mulkey threatened to sue the Washington Post for an upcoming article she described as a "hit piece". [25] She also criticized a Los Angeles Times column as sexist for describing her LSU team as "dirty debutantes". The writer apologized and the paper removed the term from the article for not meeting their editorial standards. [27]

Personal life

In 1987, Mulkey married Randy Robertson, whom she met at Louisiana Tech where he was the starting quarterback for the Bulldogs for the 1974 and 1975 seasons. They have two children together: son Kramer, a professional baseball player and collegiate All-American at Louisiana State University, and daughter Makenzie, who played both basketball and softball for Baylor. During her marriage to Robertson, she was known as Kim Mulkey-Robertson. Mulkey and Robertson divorced in 2006. [28]

Mulkey is known for her exuberant fashion worn during games. [29] She has said her style is inspired by Louisiana. [30] Mulkey often wears outfits by Queen of Sparkles. She gets styling assistance from Jennifer Roberts, LSU's director of Player personnel and influence. [30]
