LSU's Kim Mulkey does not intend to read the now-published Washington Post profile on her career

The much anticipated article on LSU women's basketball coach Kim Mulkey was published Saturday by The Washington Post. Yet rather than the hit piece Mulkey expected, the feature by Kent Babb was a profile detailing the events and people that influenced an extremely successful coach who's won four national championships.

For example, legendary Tennessee coach Pat Summitt demonstrated to her that it was possible to excel at basketball while also raising a family, incorporating her children into her coaching life.

However, Mulkey insists that she won't read the feature, regardless of whether or not it includes anything she might perceive as objectionable.

"Are you really surprised by the timing of it?" Mulkey told ESPN's Holly Rowe before the Tigers' Sweet 16 matchup with UCLA on Saturday. "I can tell you I haven't read it, I don't know that I will read it. I'll leave that up to my attorneys."
