As for Mulkey, I've ejected her from my consciousness some time ago.

Quote:VanDerveer has received only three technical fouls her entire 44-year Hall of Fame career and she remembers each one of them vividly to this day — one at Idaho and two during her 37 seasons at Stanford.
She picks her moments and always has.
"One in Alaska, I was the coach at Idaho, they called over and back and we didn't play over and back, that wasn't our rule. And I pointed that out and they didn't like me to point that out. I got one at Stanford early on down in UCLA," she recalled before the game. "And I got one I went on the court because Candice (Wiggins) got clobbered. I just was worried about Candice. I went out right on the court, I was like, 'She got clobbered and I've got to go find out how she is.' Our players don't get technicals either. I don't want to lose a game by two and be blaming myself."
