11 College National Championships player and coach. 4 national championships as a player with Raybestos, multiple hall of fames... I think she is still someone I would listen to. Would you listen to Coach Hutch at U of M? Same age, just one retired and one still coaches.
I guess you were nodding in agreement and hanging on every stupid comment Michelle Smith made during the WCWS? Just because someone was accomplished in ones career back in the day does not necessarily equate to any level of credibility.
