Kim Mulkey quotes after the loss to Texas
“I haven’t moved on yet,” Mulkey said. “We were off yesterday and today we’ll get in the film room and we won’t even talk about Georgia. We will talk about Texas, probably watch the entire thing, and make kids be accountable. Listen, we played our asses off. We played so hard defensively. Everybody thought it was such a mismatch in the paint because they had the bulk and the bigs, but our paint people did their jobs. Sa’Myah had one of her best games and it showed in the end.
What lost the game – we’re not good enough yet, when we need your toughest in tough situations, being disciplined and doing what you need to do to win a ball game. It’s not talent. The South Carolina game was a six point game and the Texas game was a one possession game and we ended up having to foul. You had a 12 point lead with 5:50 left in the third quarter – what happened? I need each of them to see what they could have done differently. It’s those hard film sessions and those hard truths that need to be told.”
