Camille LeNoir thought she’d landed a dream job last year, an entryway into the competitive world of coaching college basketball.
She was a former player herself, having starred at the University of Southern California. The WNBA’s Washington Mystics made her a second-round draft pick and she played the game professionally overseas. But since her playing days ended, LeNoir had focused on working with young players. She was excited when her former college coach offered her an assistant position on his staff at New Mexico State University.
She accepted the job, but two days before she was to board a plane for New Mexico, LeNoir’s phone rang. The Aggies’ coach, Mark Trakh, had watched an online video posted in 2011 in which LeNoir discussed her playing career, her religious faith and her sexuality.
For most of her basketball career, LeNoir identified as gay. Now she’s not. In fact, in the video, she said homosexuality was “wrong” and “not worth losing your soul over.”
Trakh retracted the job offer, LeNoir said, and advised her to remove the video if she ever wanted to work in college basketball. LeNoir said she was devastated. She felt she could be an effective coach regardless of what she’d said in that video. And besides, LeNoir figured, hadn’t she already accepted the position?

Good. We have to fight back, at some point.
Tides turn.
Who knows what might happen, if she wins?
This broad and Spacey saying that they are choosing whether or not to be homosexual.
I thought it was settled science that their was no choice in the matter because you were born that way?
That was my thought. Once a person goes Gay; they are Gay for life even if they don’t practice homosexuality at the moment.
One exception would be someone is who is raped and has no choice or was coerced using drugs or trickery on young people. I actually had a gay guy attempt that with me. I thought he was just being a friendly guy but he clearly wanted a lot more. Nothing more happened of course. I just left but it was a real eye opener.
Probably not as a coach.
But she might get a lot of money.
That’s impossible.
It’s against the law to discriminate based on sexual orientation.
Hmmm... Are any Christian schools looking for a coach?
You are probably right. Sexuality is imprinted when you are in the womb. It has to do with hormones during gestation. You can be 100% straight or 100% gay or anything in between. Deviant sexuality can also be imprinted by sexual abuse on a young child. They are victims, victims of predators and to be pitied but not condoned. Sometimes they become super predators as adults.
Maybe she just isn’t practicing a certain set of sexual behaviors at the moment?
