Leap of faith ? More like going over Niagara in a barrelHuge leap in all fairness. She's never managed men's football. Never had to coach a team at the speed and intensity that men play the game at compared to women. She won't have managed players who, more than likely, have egos much larger than those in the women's game. This isn't me being sexist at all, it's just explaining the facts.
I'm not saying I wouldn't be willing to give her a chance, however the leap between men's and women's games are huge and it would take a ballsy owner to hire her.
