LSU women’s basketball coach Kim Mulkey continues to be one of the most controversial figures in the sport.
The former Baylor coach has earned negative attention in recent years for her dangerous comments on COVID-19 protocols and her lack of support regarding WNBA star Brittney Griner’s unlawful detention in Russia.
Mulkey’s game-day outfits tend to be attention-grabbing as well — though for far more innocuous reasons. The Tigers coach has been known to sport some outrageous looks on the sideline, with her wardrobe already a point of fascination in Baton Rouge.
However, her outfit for No. 3 LSU’s 66-63 victory over No. 2 Utah on Friday in the 2023 women’s NCAA tournament might be her most polarizing wardrobe decision yet.
Mulkey wore a hot-pink jacket adorned with flowers and a checker print design. Resembling a boa, the sleeves were covered with neon pink feathers. It’s a get-up you’ve got to see to believe.
