Am proud of the way Dawn handled the post game. Apologized and said all the right things. Kamilla Cardosa's statement was classy, apologized, and accepted responsibility for her actions. Kim Mulkey comes out in the post game and states she wishes Kamilla had pushed Angel Reese. Angel Reese goes on a loud mouthed rant about how she's not scared of South Carolina. What a difference, A program and coach with class and one without.
Difference Between The Two Programs and The Coaches
- Thread starter Garnet Man
- Start date
Agree to a certain extent but if you were on the other side (your player and team getting pummeled), I would probably feel a bit differently.
Might feel differently, but you don’t make those comments publicly. Does she wish there were actual fighting? What would have happened if it were Angel? It would be the same thing if Dawn would have said “hey, if she doesn’t want to get put on her *** she shouldn’t be trying to throw elbows. She got what she deserved.” The difference in the comments is the difference in an elite program vs an elite team.
Are you implying that USC was the one doing the majority of the pummeling? From what I saw, both teams were guilty and one more so than the other one.
That team got 'pummeled' after elbows from Reese and Flaujae and flagrant hair pulling by Reese. Cardoso should not have done what she did (and apologized for) but it was after watching her teammate get elbowed that it happened. Reese's statement was accurate that they are not afraid of SC we need to be afraid of LSU and they would do anything to win.
Two teams acting like thugs. We should be better than that. We all know Mulkey is trash. Our coach brings a lot of crap on our team with her own mouth.
You always see the other side if it can paint SC negatively. Have you watched the not hard, but dirty play and taunting from LSU these past three games? KC was wrong, but a hard shove is nothing compared to what LSU did to Boston and now KC. They talk about “fighting hard” but they try to actually fight.
He is.
I love how this is being explained as a fight. It was not a fight. A LSU player shoved Watkins, then that same LSU got shoved by KC. End of story. Quite frankly, this is all WAAAAY overblown and if I were a betting man, I'd be there may have been 2 ejections with no suspensions if this were MBB. The fact that KC is suspended but Flaujae is not is crazy to me.
See Flanagin from Ole Miss as your perfect example. He should have been suspended for several games…..lost 16 minutes
SEC oversight of the officials is timid and lacking in many cases. The need for more training is obvious. The Flannigan case is a prime example.
I wonder if there is a shortage of qualified officials like many retail stores and restaurants that can't find anyone who will work?
LOL...wtf is going on with LSU WBB. Former player out here bragging about her performance in a 24 point blowout loss, calling out the current team for being scared of USC. Dawn Staley absolutely owns LSU WBB.
The coaching differences are obvious as one is a clown.
Team differences are clear as well. The clown's team exhibits her coaching with playground antics like pulling hair and throwing elbows with intent to injure players.

Mulkey is a classless thug and her players feed off her energy.
If any of y'all saw the Karate Kid movies back in the day or the Cobra Kai series recently:
Kim Mulkey= John Kreese
Kim Mulkey= John Kreese
I don't always take the other side. I am always on our side. I was in CLP's corner from day 1 when most of ya'll were against the hire. Is this what you mean by the other side? When a good many buried us after the UGA loss, I was on the LP's side. Yes, I was in the minority. I assume being correct is the "other side"?
I didn't see yesterday's game so maybe I shouldn't have commented (context). Only saw the replay (several times). Take away everything that happened that i didn't see, I would have been pretty PO'd if I were the LSU coach and she spoke accordingly.
Again, you physically touch another player like that you can't claim to be a victim. Girl is 5-10 and went at a 6-3 Watkins. I know KC is bigger than Watkins, but little pup decided to go after big dogs all on her own. If you ask for trouble don't be shocked when it comes.
Fair enough. Two girls shoved during a game. The “brawl” never happened. The ejections were from players stepping on the floor to see what happened for both teams. They never got close to each other.
KC already had a bloody lip from the fight club called LSU. She shoved Johnson after Johnson shoved Watkins. Johnson used a little of the acting technique LSU so aptly employs called a flop. KC was wrong to retaliate and rightly ejected.
Now don’t confuse any of that with Reese, as soon as the game started, throwing a ufc type elbow into KC’s ribs. Follow that with a clear attempt by Reese to hit KC in the face to injure with a forearm which was deemed intentional (not flagrant mind you). Intentionally pulling KCs hair on video. They were trying to start a foght. They didn’t get one and lost to boot.
She used the word initiate. She knew what her former team was trying to do.
Do you really want me to bring back up all the racist things she says. I can.
Mulkey belongs in NYC or Chicago. Reese is appropriately situated in Baltimore.

Please take that somewhere else. I could bring up all the racist thing said and implied about her
I could bring up all of the racist things said or implied about her. Your obviously her to troll so take yourself away.
What’s your definition of pummeled? No doubt we play a rough game but it’s well within the rules. LSU was literally throwing elbows and pulling hair. If pummeled means we were playing our normal hard-nosed style then sure, we were pummeling them.
If the fan, an LSU player's relative, had not jumped onto the court, there wouldn't have been anything all that extraordinary about this incident, certainly nothing that would have made the national non-sports news. The benches did literally clear. But it was not a bench-clearing "fight" or "brawl." When players see a grown man leap out of the stands to confront one of their teammates, I don't see how you can keep them from leaving their seats, if for no other reason than to see what the F is going on.
Yes!! THAT is the story. A grown man jumping into the court and putting hands on KC. That could have been very, very bad.
I understand, but they shouldn't have said it at the press conference for the same reason that I am glad Kamilla played enforcer and let LSU know we are not soft just because we don't do a lot of talking and participate in unnecessary physical play. LSU has resorted to thinking they can punk us. So, Dawn said the right things publicly, but I don't think she is too upset at Kamilla. Now, what Ashlyn did to start the whole thing was a little unnecessary. She taunted Flau'jae because that steal was pretty much the game ender for LSU. Flau'jae responded inappropriately with the elbow and Kamilla shut everything down. Kamilla was just protecting her teammates and she went a little far, but I am not mad at all. Kamilla let them know that there is some fight in that big body.
Presently, Charlie Creme, the women's bracketologist, has both Iowa and LSU on the opposite side of the bracket from South Carolina. Of course, we know this is subject to change, but according to the present projections, LSU would possibly have to face Notre Dame, Stanford, and Iowa to get to rematch in the title game against us if we take care of business along the way. Hope this bracket projection holds true as it would mean we would only potentially have to face either Iowa or LSU not both along the way.
No she is white trailer trash and Angel Reese is a street thug!! Those are the facts
