Karlie has some experience coaching at Vanguard U, in Orange County. Russ Davis is the coach there. Davis also coaches Cal Swish/AAU, which runs some of the best basketball sets at the AAU level. Coming to Stanford from Cal Swish--Karlie and Bonnie Samuelson, Jeanete Pohlen, Candace Wiggins, and some others.
Yes, Karlie does have a bit of experience as a coach, but it is very limited. But I still think she could be a good fit with the team of coaches that Tara has. Both her Associate Head coach (Kate) and #1 assistant have been with her for many years and are themselves very experienced. Having them there seems to me to make it possible to bring in an inexperienced coach and make it work.
