to be an asst on Coach John Beilein's staff in Cleveland. Significant move for all, she's been fairly successful at CAL, only the Spurs Becky Hammon has a similar position in the NBA.

Sucks for CAL to have to now go out and find a replacement for her, now isn't exactly the best time to be looking for a coach.

If only men could get jobs in Women's basketball

Waiting to get pelted with empties

Seriously, makes you wonder if some of the powers that be actually listened to what Muffet had to say
This move has been underway before Muffet spoke out.

Not sure why she didn’t seem to know that and take more of a supportive tack towards expanding what’s already underway. Transition begins in steps then takes off. That’s what we’ll see imo.
I think she expanded the narrative when she had a platform

Wasn't trying to imply she was the originator of this movement
So what is Becky Hammon again? Thought she was 1st. *

she actually was the HC for the Spurs summer league team in Las Vegas in 2018. Lindsay becomes the first NCAA woman's HC to leave college for an NBA coaching job.

Nancy Lieberman (Kings) was the first female NBA assistant.

Assistant GM for the Spurs, I think
