Starkey's hunch
You've got to say this for Bob Starkey, he's not backing off from his statements saying he doesn't want to be the head women's coach at LSU.
He was asked again today in a conference call with national media. And again, he said he prefers to be an assistant coach. He said he knows his limitations. He said LSU deserves a more worthy candidate.
Geeze, it almost sounds un-American. An assistant coach not wanting to move up. Heck, an assistant not wanting a bigger bonus?
It will be interesting to see if this changes. But Starkey could be the first coach to win a national championship and then go to the unemployment line.
Hopefully, he knows what he's doing.

Sounds like he's smarter than the rest of us!
I think it's refreshing that a coach knows what he likes to do; knows what his strengths are; knows what his weaknesses are; and is not trying to BS his way into a job because it's got a bigger paycheck. Bob is a really good guy who is very clear on what he wants to do with his life. Kudos to Bob in staying with those things that he is best at!
