Continuing with the college Women's Hoops conversation, big games were had over the weekend
and the number two LSU Tigers versusnumber one South Carolina game Cocks took the
floor once again. This is becomingquite the rivalry, especially when you have
coach Dawn versus coach Mulky. Itjust creates such a unique environment. And
(00:23):
South Carolina ultimately got the win seventynine to seventy two for the SEC championship
in that tournament. But hard that'snot the story. The story is what
happened towards the end of the game, which was nearly a brawl. Players
are pushing, shoving, get ineach other's faces. Six players ultimately ejected
and and I believe they said thatsome of those players that were ejected are
(00:44):
not going to be able to playin the first game of the NCAA tournament.
So huge implications for those teams goinginto the rest of the postseason.
And of course, as coaches do, they take the podium following the game
and we're gonna let you listen toKim Mulki, and then we're gonna let
you listen to coach Don because theyhad quite different takes following that situation.
No one wants to be a partof that. No one wants to see
(01:08):
to see that ugliness. But Ican tell you this, I wish she
would have pushed Angel Reese. Don'tpush a kid that you six eight,
Don't push somebody that little. Thatwas uncalled for. In my opinion.
Let those two girls that were jawing, let them go at it. So
(01:29):
Kim Molkie's take is that she wasupset that a big girl pushed a little
girl, yeah, and was saying, we should be fighting the people of
our own size. Yeah, it'sit's it's I understand, it's the old
school mentality because somebody your own size, well, I don't think a lot
of people are six eight yep,are gonna be able to do anything with
(01:51):
her. Anyway. Now here wego with Coach Don because she had definitely
had a different take on the situationfollowing the game. Flya Ja came to
me after the game, right afterthe game, and she just apologized and
says, she's not that type ofplayer. And I really appreciate that.
It's something that somebody won't ever hearif I didn't say anything. And she's
not She's a really good person.Things just got escalated. I'll take responsibility
(02:16):
for what happened from our side ofit, which is we don't you know,
we talk about these things as ayou know, as a as a
team, and we try to asmuch as possible express to them how not
(02:38):
to react in those type of situations. Well, real time is real time.
And I know that you know,anybody Camilla as well as the other
four or five players that were rejected, I know if they had a chance
to do it all over again,they would do it differently. But now
we have that. I just don'twant the people who are tuning in a
women's basketball see that and think,you know, that is our game,
(03:01):
because it is our game is areally beautiful thing, and to be quite
honest, this is this is apart of it now. So we have
to fix it and we have tomove on. Go ahead. This is
the difference, right, she couldhave been able to do everything she wanted
(03:23):
to say, Kim Molky. Thatis in a different time, in a
different moment. Don Staley did exactlywhat Kim Moukie should do. But we
all know how Kim Monkey is.She can care less about your feelings.
She can care less about your thoughts. All she wants to do is coach
her team and win and teach themto be tough. Don Staley wants these
(03:46):
women because now you are on thebiggest stage. I just gave you a
whole ten minute rent about how beautiful. Yes, the game is starting out
where I was going, what doesthis do for the because you probably have
an audience of like, oh,it's like people who like to watch NASCAR
for that reason. Right, wecould get this every game, right,
we get chicks going at it.Yeah, but for the game, for
(04:09):
the product, that's not what youwant. Yeah. Agree, you don't
want that for your team. Youdon't want that for the product. You
don't want that for the brand.You don't want that for your school.
You don't want that for your playersbecause now they're dealing with suspensions. And
during that moment, Reese Angel Reesewalked the other way during that moment.
(04:31):
Now, I understand you got tobe smart about it, but she wasn't
trying to stop any of her playersfrom going away. So it's a tight,
tight rope to run. And we'llsee what implications that has on the
NCAA tournament with those players that havebeen suspended for the first round. Keeping
it with basketball hard Rudy Gobert.Ever, anytime he finds himself with the
(04:51):
headline, it's typically not that great. Of course, he will forever be
remembered as the guy touching all themicrophones joking about COVID nineteen just before the
world shut down. Well, nowhe's in the headlines again because he has
been fined one hundred thousand dollars.He fouled out and then gave a money
dollars sign gesture to the refs,and I guess that implication of y'all are
(05:14):
being paid, y'all are making moneyon this, this, that, and
the other. They did lose toCleveland on that night, one thirteen to
one oh four, but one hundredthousand dollars hard for a money sign.
Yeah, Well he said he gotthe money, so they were like,
let me have some of that money. Yeah, you got money yourself.
You should have got to be smart, man, Oh, you gotta be
(05:35):
smart man. I got keep yourhands to yourself, especially when you're being
fouled out for not keeping your handsto yourself. Finally, Hard, moving
it over to the mound, thesavannah bananas have taken over the world of
entertainment slash baseball, and they soldout their first stadium. They've been playing
kind of you know, Triple Astadiums here and there, but they sold
(05:57):
out Minute Made Park over the weekendin Houston, and it was an exciting
time. Nothing more exciting than whenseven time Cy Young Award winner and sixty
one year old Roger Clemens took themout in full Savannah Banana's uniform, where
he pitched for the first time onan MLB mount since two thousand and seven.
There was a crowd of forty oneone thousand people. He gave up
(06:19):
three hits, including a home run, and he retired one batter against the
rival Party Animals. But you're we'vekind of talked about them here and there,
but I mean, they're really startingto blow up, and they're getting
a lot of attention of celebrities.How they bring them out to games and
do a lot of fun things withthem. What are your thoughts on the
(06:40):
Savannah Bananas and what they are ormaybe not doing for the game of baseball.
I'm gonna be one thousand honest withyou. To be honest, I've
not watched one bit of the Savannahbananas because you just got on TikTok well
on their page, not even justfor that. I just you know,
(07:01):
it's it's a gimmick, right,It's like the king in his court.
Yeah, that's what they are.And I think it's great because of the
people to your point, the peoplethat they've brought out to be a part
of it. But I haven't hadone moment or one inclination of watching it.
And the funny part about it,I see people that I know that
have traveled to go and watch them, and they said, it's the greatest
(07:25):
thing. But it's just something thatI've never really bought into. I like,
yeah, I don't, I don'tdon't. You're not You're not a
Broadway guy. Huh No. Theydo a lot of dancing and show tune
in and they brought out a Backstreetboy once and he sang his own walk
up song before he went to theplate. Who was it, Brian Latrell?
Oh really yeah, okay, No, I just don't have anything for
(07:49):
it. I just I hadn't paidmuch attention to it. I know who
they are. I would have beena part of it. I would have
done it. You've thought back intwo thousand and seven when last played in
the MLB and said, next timehe's on the mount, it's going to
be in Houston, but it's goingto be for a show entertainment version of
baseball. Yeah, and it's goingto be a Banana's uniform. That was
(08:13):
impressive. I'm glad to see it. I'm glad he got a chance to
go out there, and the facttoo that he was excited to be a
part of it all. So forhim to be out there and he was
wearing Texas spikes by the way,he was yeah to show it definitely clashed
though with that yellow uniform, butthere is today salty shakedown. Roger Clemens
makes an appearance that the Minute MadeDome for the Houston Astros as part of
(08:37):
the Savannah Bananas. Rudy Gobert findone hundred thousand dollars for a simple money
gesture to the referees after they foiledhim out of a game. And women's
