@isufbcurt well done on flushing out the typical hawk in @jereseib … you are a master at trolling the hawk faithful.

He ferrets out both Hawk faithful and Hawk closet bandwagon sympathizers. He’s got skills

That is actually a really good comparison though. Media darling and quite famous for a bit. I didn't have one but I can remember the poster she had. Blonde flowing hair.

Of course Reese was over the top, but what her actions did was to force the national media to comment on Clark’s antics. About time.

I saw comments today from Reese that said her actions were for, "girls who look like me". I don't follow Caitlin Clark real close, but has she made racial attacks or attacked black athletes before? I get taunting and trash talk, but using this as an opportunity to be a racial beacon? Yeah, I'm not sure.

There's nothing wrong with either of their "antics".

THESE GIRLS SHOULD NOT CELEBRATE ANY BASKET. KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN AND DON'T ENJOY PLAYING THE GAME. sheesh

I don't believe Clark did anything at least intentionally and actually her response post game about Reese's antics was handled gracefully overall, although her mentioning the hand shake line imo was a slight dig.

On the other hand hasn't Bluder had her team not shake hands at some point last season or something because they couldn't take the loss?

Reese laid it on pretty thick but there's still a common theme of:

Clark does it: competitive, great for women's basketball, celebrities loving it.

Reese: see Hok fan message boards.

Maybe it’s the fact that Clark has gotten away with her classic shrug and other crap all year without any criticism

I know more than one Husker family who has moved into the "We're mostly womens volleyball fans" who were definitely Husker football fans in the 90s.

I still they’re massive fans of Creighton men’s hoops too!

Hmmmm I guess @jereseib really is a hawk fan. Never believed it until the melt down in this thread. No Iowa State fan could ever melt down like that over a Hawkeye game.

We were on the road and didn't see or listen to the game live. I saw the controversy afterward. I know there was a Can't See Me wave to Caitlyn during one of the freethrows.
The other clip I saw showed Angel do the Cena wave as Caitlyn walked by, then the ring finger, then when Caitlyn turned and walked past her again she did the Cena wave again, all while Caitlyn studiously remained stone-faced. The blurb about the clip quoted Caitlyn as saying "I was just looking for the handshake line" when the media asked her what her reaction was to what Angel did. Because of that, I assumed it was post game. I can't find that specific post (it was either Twitter or FB) again. Did that happen prior to the final buzzer?

Yes

I would let her hold my gun.

The Hawkeye faithful have done a great job to play right into this narrative though.

I know some people enjoy woman's basketball; I know some people will root for their team no matter what. But the explosion of woman's basketball recently makes me think that the gambling houses were behind the rise of popularity and conversation. Another thing to gamble on.

HUGE ego?

Clark was born with all of the advantages and they have played a huge part of who she is as a player. The girls Reese is referring to have a much more difficult path to excellence. Clark has obviously worked EXTREMELY hard on her craft and I don't want to take that away but I understand what Reese was getting at.

Can't count how many times I saw the word thug on FB. Also, saw plenty of comments in regards to SC not coming out for the national anthem.

you shaking a stick at those pesky gambling apps? They're the work of the devil.
