I have to say - there is something, "admirable?" about how much Kim Mulkey "leans in" on being Kim Mulkey with the wardrobe, the comments, her demeanor. Nobody can say she's fake.

Really surprised the NCAA hasn't called for a convention of sorts to chart a path through this mess. It's not greed that is causing this, but fear of financial collapse.
