Perhaps. But I think if she explained to her recruits that she has a chance to make history, they would understand and might actually encourage the move.
100%.
What women's NCAA player would not want to say that they were recruited by a current NBA head coach? They could transfer, or stay and play for the next qualified coach that they hire.
Having a relationship with a current NBA head coach is also one hell of a positive for your network, which all of her players are 100% thinking about as well.
