"Lady Bear: The Kim Mulkey Story" starring Reese Witherspoon
Now that's a movie!
///////////////////////////////////
Kim Mulkey grew up rough and tough in Louisiana in the 1970's. Too short, too slow, too skinny to play with the big boys, she won championships in high school and in college at Louisiana Tech as the pig tailed, tough as nails point guard America fell in love with. At the 1984 Olympics, she starred on the first US Olympic gold medalists in women's basketball. After her playing days, clueless, she fell into coaching. And fell hard. As an assistant at her alma mater, Kim rose through the ranks, eventually becoming La Tech's number one assistant. Heartbroken when she was passed over for the head coaching job, Coach Mulkey moved to the basketball backwaters of Baylor University in Waco, Texas. And won a national championship five years later. Now among the highest paid women's college basketball coaches in the country, Kim is known as a leader, teacher, motivator, winner, sister, daughter, and mom. Loved by her players, past and present, and her fellow coaches, Kim is living the American Dream every day of her life.
