This is disturbing on many levels, but unfortunately unsurprising.
Clark wasn't bothered by Reese's taunt.

And the chasing around was after the final horn sounded. Clark has dished it out, and she had no choice but to take it, but the post-game chasing and taunting is an even lower level of classless. Drake University Gopher is right, would surely have been a brawl in a men’s game, and easily could have been a brawl in a women’s game. Thought Bluder should have cleared the bench at the last free throw, because you could see where this was going, and I’m not sure I would have bet on Clark and company not to respond, especially to any post-Horn BS.
According to this, Angel has more deals than any other player.
Not true, she already has some of the highest NIL deals in Mens or Women's game. I didn't like the taunt, but I do believe the LSU players that the trucking, and taunts were in retaliation for the things that were said about South Carolina and the media glorifying Clark's behavior as empowerment and leadership stuff. Reese dishes it but she does take crap about her self promotion and looks on social media which is uncalled for. I also believe coach Bluder from Iowa that some of her "bar" fight comments were taken out of context regarding South Carolina. Reese is a great player, more than basketball player, she has fashion and music stuff going. Guess she believes all publicity is good publicity, It's too bad this controversy has taken over what was a Good NCAA tournament and a great Women's basketball game. It finally felt like this was an event and the Women's NCAAA and Women's basketball Is gaining deserved respect. Much respect to LSU, they had a great game plan executed it to excellence and are Nnational champions.
You didn't watch much if this was your take away. There were fabulous games played from beginning to end. Both Semi final games were played at a high level of basketball. The LSU coach does outfits wildly but some of that is to raise money for charity. She Mulkey has won 4 National titles with great talent, so she must be just a little bit of a decent coach. Have seen many players wear the half pant look. Don't have a problem with it. Dudes wear the leggings, half pant, all kinds of shoe's and nobody says boo about it. As to taunts controversy, my style is more let the players play and let that play on the court speak for itself. Reese got MVP but for me the MVP of this game was Morris, she is 5-6 and her jump shots in 3rd and 4th quarter took over game. Reese had a big part in LSU run all tournament but Morris too, she took over championship game with her jump shot and defense in second half after Iowa made a come back. I would rather talk about the basketball game than side show stuff. This game is growing, and this year was a good start.
Oh please, you can dislike her, or the comments, but quit it with the name calling and generalizations. Big 10 plays bully ball to. LSU had a great game plan and did to Iowa what they did to South Carolina. The game is growing and we need more "eye's" watching the game. Gopher fan's should not feel bad for Iowa, the Iowa fan's dish it at us plenty.
Not name calling it's true. She wasn't eligible for awards because of her GPA and has no sportsmanship or respect on the court
Angel Reese is not going to school for a GPA. She is going for PPG and NIL!
You are right about that, players will go where they have a chance to win a championship and Clark will be a great recruiting person for Iowa.
If they do not have any players transfer out, I don’t think they have any scholarships available. The only opening they may have is if Ava Jones is not counted.
Iowa really needs an athletic center. They got out-rebounded badly, and their two backup centers were not ready for the big stage.
To be fair, they were even more outrebounded by South Carolina. LSU just shot the ball incredibly.
And they couldn't just ignore LSU's shooters/wings like they did with several South Carolina players.....
Is there a medical exemption or something they can get to free up her scholarship for first year? Know school is already planning to honor it regardless of if she ever can play
I’m not sure. But I was thinking it would not count if she is unable to play. I know she is hoping to play again.
Clark chirps a lot during the game, but don’t think she has chased anybody around the floor after the game to taunt them.
Game? Player?
