Report cards for 7 new head coaches and assessing diversity in the hires | WNBA basketball podcast
Manage episode 459048515 series 1770738
Host Jackie Powell is joined by Meghan Hall of For the Win to dish out grades of each new WNBA head coach now that all 7 positions have been filled. First they explain their grades for the Karl Smesko of Dream, Tyler Marsh of Sky and Stephanie White of the Fever. Then they reveal what they made of the Sparks' new hire, former Utah head coach Lynne Roberts followed by the mad dash of hires that were rolled out in December from the Connecticut Sun, Dallas Wings and the Washington Mystics. And in their final segment, the pair zeroes in on why more men are getting WNBA head coaching roles heading into the 2025 season and how far the league has come in five years since only four women were head coaches.
