Are we expecting 20 year olds to have perspective?I don't want to belabor the point during this game but that Clark quote is a far, far cry from saying "my school by itself has put the sport on the map." I mean I'm not exaggerating the quote, she literally said "by itself."
RidiculousBest player in college basketball and the crooks in stripes making sure to keep her on the bench.
She is much better at talking on the court than offMulkey spends most of the game ON the court whining, and the scared refs give Clark a T.
they're calling it wayyyy too tight. no one wants to see the best players on both teams on the bench.Refs lost control of the game.
I don't mind her. She's doing what she should.She is much better at talking on the court than off
Ridiculous.The T is so ridiculous it makes me actually question the integrity of the game.
Agreed. Terrible officiating for any game. Inexcusable for an NCAA Final. That was what I meant by “lost control.”they're calling it wayyyy too tight. no one wants to see the best players on both teams on the bench.
the shame is that fans new to the womens' game will think that it's not as physical when that could not be further from the truth. Both of the semifinal games were very physical in the paint and it was thrilling to watch them compete. this is bullshit.
It's not even that it's not physical, it's just fucking random. There have been fouls on both sides where it makes no sense. The T was just the icing on the cake.Agreed. Terrible officiating for any game. Inexcusable for an NCAA Final. That was what I meant by “lost control.”
Yep, really bad look for this ref crew. They are clearly over their heads.Wait , what? For that? I thought she at least did or said SOMEtHING
Kim Mulkey is a legend but this was very funny. The Elton John of women's basketball.Foil wrapped coach unhappy.
They are absolutely not the highest graded officials.If these are the best refs in the country doing this game, I’m sad for the state of reffing. At least they are consistently terrible, so it’s offsetting to a degree but that Tech was craziness.
Refs with egos suck.
Yeah.Both teams are lights out shooting. Incredible display.
This one's getting a lot of play:Over on Twitter, Mulkey might be the bigger villain than the refs.
Refs seem scared of her the way NBA refs are scared of Draymond Green.
I'm surprised they didn't have Forsberg and Kantner working this game. They usually are.Yep, really bad look for this ref crew. They are clearly over their heads.
I thought I heard that tooSo, Morris played at Baylor, Rutgers, Texas A&M, and LSU?!?
And, was kicked off Mulkey's Baylor team?!?I thought I heard that too
I definitely heard that partAnd, was kicked off Mulkey's Baylor team?!?
I'll second that.Ordinarily I try not to complain about officiating. Doesn't do much good, and usually the complaint is about a bad call or two. But this, the way that the refs just sucked all of the oxygen out of the room, has just been terrible. I can't remember a game, in any sport, anywhere, where the officiating from the first minute of the game, all the way through, has been this bad.
Mulkey kicked her off the Baylor team. Good for her for turning it around or getting back on the right trackI thought I heard that too
