New ‘do for Sherri? What’s next?
Sherri Coale might be going through a mid-life crisis.
Not that that’s a bad thing.
Watch my latest video commentary or continue reading below:
The Oklahoma women’s basketball coach showed up at Big 12 media days earlier this week sporting a new ‘do. Her signature curly blond locks are gone, replaced by a straighter, more feathered look.
Frankly, I can believe I’m talking about feathered hair, but we know that many of you are. Some of you miss the curls. Some of you love the new look.
Coale knows how all of you feel.
“I can’t decide,” she said, when asked about changing styles.
There’s reason to believe this might be part of a permanent change. You see, I’m buying into the mid-life-crisis theory. The reason? A story that Sooner point guard Danielle Robinson told a couple days ago at Big 12 media day.
Apparently, the Sooners had a throw-back day last season. Everyone wore their high school gear or some sort of old-school apparel to practice one day. There were short shorts and polyester and headbands.
Suddenly, the players looked up and coming down the stairs into the practice gym was Coale. She was wearing her uniform from her college days at Oklahoma Christian.
She last wore that uniform in the mid 80s.
Needless to say, it was short and tight, but she still got it on.
So, maybe this changing hairstyle should come as no surprise.
No word on whether Coale is driving a convertible or planning long vacations these days, but hey, if the 43-year-young coach is having a mid-life crisis, I say live it up. Go for the gusto. Wear the shorts. Embrace the fun.
Heck, go ahead and change the hair. Talk about living on the wild side.

I guess you have been watching so much “Palen bashing” that you just had to jump on the band wagon.
Not very smart, since your sports reporting abilities are at best, marginal.
