First of all I think she is fine as hell, and I'm all man. Secondly, so what "IF" she did. From the sounds of the Atheletic Director, he wanted her out anyway. I'm sorry, but he sounds just like one of them southern racist that we talk about out here on the west coast. One thing I will say about the south, though. At least back there you know whos stabbin' you in the back. Out here on the coast, even some of your own people wear a mask all to well. Good luck Pokey. Some school or WNBA team will look at your resume, and thats that.

The biggest problem I have is the AD at LSU calling her the girl. What is wrong with that boy. If it is true, I don't think it is right because of her being Head Coach. but if the player graduate before the relationship started then it should be no problem. The media keeps saying former player or players. Why did one of her staff member turn her. They wanted to be with Pokey is what I think. Whoever it was on her staff that turned her in hurt themselves nobody wants a tattletale on their team or as my son call them teletubbies

Yes. It is too much of a distraction. Secondly, she has to own up to her actions. If someone accused me of that and I was coaching, but i didnt do it, I wouldn't resign. If i did, I would. Thats where I think that they have her pigeonholed. Not only is gayness gross, but its your own player! Theyre are so much younger and they look up to you and oyu have to set a good example. I think she needs some time off. She is one hell of a coach, and eventually, when all this is over, which could take years, she will step back into the spotlight,but too soon of an entrance wouldjust make the university look bad, and she wouldnt get any recruits cause parents would shoot her when they stepped on the lawn!! If they were smart, anyways! And Lastly, its chaTman, not chapman

Unfortunately, she had to go! In the work place, what she did is called sexual harrassment. To make matters worse, it was a student, a player on her team...someone that she recruited to the school.
The media will have a field day with her. She will still be subject to intense scrutiny whenever she decides to speak out. Perhaps we see why male athletes are so concerned about gay men in the locker room.

Of course she should resign. If the allegations were not true then she should state that and fight. Hell her own friend turned her in. She is suppose to be a coach, mentor and friend not lover. And looking good doesn't mean anything in to days world, look at Sheryl Miller and the two ex-guards from the Huston comets, all GAY.

What do you mean what if? she admitted it...IF she were to act as a coach in a professional setting, she should have been able to NOT have sex with the girls on her team...she sucked as a coach anyway..she was very unprofessional..Sue Gunter is the one who built that program..let's hope someone with more intelligence comes in and saves what is left!!!!

SHE DID ADMIT IT. I DON'T SEE RACISM IN THIS INSTANCE.
PLUS FOR THE RECORD RACISM IS ALL OVER AMERICA. DON'T FORGET THAT REGAN AND NIXON WERE GOVERNORS OF CALIFORNIA.
