#2 Seed Iowa & Caitlin Clark vs #7 Seed Penn St in Big Ten Womens Basketball Tournament at 5:30 pm today on BTN.

If I was allowed to post this in the Illini Womens Basketball Forum, I would add that a rising tide lifts all ships.

LSU and South Carolina both benches ejected for leaving during a fight. Along with South Carolina starting center for fighting.
Sounds like Cardoso from South Carolina will be unavailable for South Carolina due to fighting penalty.

Any word on the girl that was hurt last night in the game before ours. You could here her and tell she was in significant pain.

Don’t follow women’s basketball. What’s wrong with her and the team? All I generally see is this great love affair with Caitlin Clark and Iowa.

I don't follow the gals either... Just going off my impressions of her from what I've seen the past 2 years in interviews and sideline theatrics.... Reese is good but just don't get good vibes there, horrible acting in her commercials.... but same with Iowa's Clark, lol. As a wholly impartial, non-fan of womens basketball, I would prefer to see South Carolina or Iowa (or anyone else for that matter) beat LSU in any round of the NCAA Tourney.

Kim Mulkey is loud and brash and isn't afraid to lay into someone. It can appear annoying. That being said, Fran does the same crap and doesn't get nearly the same vitriol. That's who she is. The female Fran.

Respectfully, it's a little more nuanced than that.

Not defending her as a person. In fact, I think she and I would have it out on several fronts if we had a conversation. I'm just pointing out that a dude who acts like her wouldn't catch half the crap she does.

@IlliniKat91 Good luck! You’re a courageous soul walk-running after a celebratory night like we Illini fans had last night…
P.S. I’ve never seen you have a grammar/spelling error in your posts, much less two…

Yeah, it’s a situation where multiple things are true. Kim catches way more flack because she’s an outspoken woman and a man doing something similar has a significantly higher chance of skating under the media criticism. And also, coaches of any sex that treat players the way she does absolutely suck and should be called out on it. But it’s not just sideline histrionics that are the issue.

But yeah, on a day like this, not gonna stress about Kim Mulkey. Enjoy the Shuffle!
