Transcript
00:00the new york post is reporting that the knicks who are searching for their next head coach
00:08have reached out to wildly successful college women's coach don staley wow three-time ncaa
00:18champion four-time coach of the year and women's college basketball and so i wanted to know how
00:25you think players fans uh others would react to the first female head coach in the nba
00:37such an interesting conversation this glass ceiling has yet to be broken yeah i believe
00:43and yeah i don't know if it'll ever be broken it's broken the other way with men coaching women
00:50um and don staley she has an amazing amazing track record as a as a women's coach but i i just
00:59don't know how some i know there are some uh coaches in all the sports women w uh in the nba in the nfl
01:06i just don't know like some guys if they would be able to kind of get to that point i think that
01:11they could really yeah and if you look at the respect and i hate to go back to it but the respect
01:16that caitlin clark has from a lot of nba players like in 20 years if caitlin clark wanted to coach
01:21in the nba i think that she has a big enough name that that guys would be able to take her as their
01:28head coach you think nba i mean she has no experience coaching in the nba but i'm saying but then again
01:34neither did brad stevens right so and he didn't get no respect though right so that that's the thing
01:40like and it would be much harder for uh a woman because the guys uh the players they're going to
01:50be walking on extreme eggshells because it's one thing to disrespect the male head coach right the
01:57brad stevens or the steve kerr or whoever it is but it's another thing to disrespect the female head
02:04coach you have to be concerned about what type of backlash that you could get as a player and if
02:10you're an owner isn't that a slippery slippery slope to go down yeah i would just i would just
02:17want nothing to do with latrell spreewell on that team well yeah but i mean draymond green i would
02:22any player gets into an argument with the coach and it's a heated argument yeah i think wiggie's right
02:28i i i mean maybe obviously i'd be all for it whoever's the best coach should be coaching but i i think
02:34it's i don't know it's just a very alpha male dominated league right and i don't it's nothing
02:42to say about capability or whatever don staley knows more about basketball than i'll ever know
02:47right uh i just i don't know if it works it's just it's gonna be very you're gonna have to see it at a
02:52big college first there you go there you go start there if you can go coach the men's south carolina
02:58basketball team
