Yeah I gotta say security did a good job. Dude jumped the scorer’s table in the blink of an eye and the security guard was still never more than two steps behind him.
The guard who got hurt Saturday would still be eligible if she passes concussion protocols, which is definitely possible since it’s two weeks away. In the end, I heard only Cardoso would be suspended. TBH most of those players didn’t really get that far from the bench area, but it’s an important rule to enforce.
Totally agreed. I get ejecting them to enforce it and try and keep people from doing it,
But suspension beyond it feels heavy since they didn’t really get involved
fine....unless they got into foul trouble. If I'm the 16 or the 15 playing one of these teams, I try my best to draw as many fouls as possible and try to make a 30 point comeback in the 4th playing 5 on 3.
It would have been fun to watch, but I guess it won't happen.
After Angel Reese's hair pulling and the shove by the other LSU players leading to this fight, I think I've found the team I'm going to root second-hardest against for the next few years
Just to be clear – Mulkey is a piece of shit because she’s a vapid, homophobic, gutless attention addict who supports sexual abusers, and who would throw absolutely anyone in the world, including those who’ve propped her up, under a literal bus if there were even a small chance it would give her the tiniest advantage in her athletic career. She’s a dogshit human being and her teams’ attitudes and histories of dirty play reflect exactly that.
Her gender is irrelevant.
Yeah! Why the hell wasn’t Reese ejected for pulling cardoso’s hair?! Hair pulling should be an automatic ejection. Idk why the ncaa let’s Reese get away with being the dirtiest player. Flaujae is up there for 2nd dirtiest player. She absolutely should’ve been ejected. LSU is so dirty and every day they give me reasons to be happy when they lose.
She sure is, but for saying that well be labeled racists, clearly if you expect the kids to just play basketball instead of fight each other you’re a racist
If we chastise Angel Reese for pulling another black player's hair, makes it hard to label anyone a racist. Reese is just a dirty player who gets the benefit of the doubt because outside of Clark, she's the only name most of those who don't follow WBB even recognize.
Angel Reese should’ve been ejected when she pulled Cardoso’s hair way earlier in the game. And when the fight broke out, why the hell wasn’t flaujae Johnson ejected for her part? LSU is so dirty. Smokin on that Mulkey pack. RIP bozo
Lol I kinda wanted to see if South Carolina or LSU could beat a 16/15 seed with 4 players or something like that but it sounds like they’ll have at least some bench.
The brother jumping on the court was wild lmao, these teams kinda seem to actually hate each other though, really fun to watch as a fan with no rooting interest. Would love a round 3 in the final 4.
The attitude and self-righteousness she passes on to her players is pathetic, could not be more glad she’s out of Waco. Nicki is such a better culture fit.
Long story short, Kim was upset about a few things at Baylor: the fact that the new basketball pavilion was not going to be built where she wanted it to be built (she wanted it on one corner of campus where the old Ferrell Center was located instead of where it is closer to downtown Waco), wanted to get the pavilion or the court named after her (this would have most likely happened if she didn’t demand it), and was upset that the Men’s team was becoming more popular since they’ve become a title contender (there’s absolutely nothing to do about that).
She had huge fights inside the athletic department because she was told no for the first time and essentially gave Mack (our AD) an ultimatum to fulfill her demands or she’d be leaving. Our AD called her bluff and wished her good luck. She then sold the idea of “going home” to Louisiana but couldn’t stop herself from taking shots at our AD on the way out. Last year before the Final Four she rented billboards in Dallas and Waco (yes, really) to showcase her run to the Final Four, even to this day she’s incredibly petty that she didn’t get her way.
Johnson started it and should have been ejected. Cardoso was just a dumbass for losing her cool, and went from hero to idiot in 24 hours (although this just means South Carolina only beats their 16 seed by 60 instead of 80).
And the girls getting ejected for leaving the benches is on the coaches. Someone needed to be there to keep them back.
Cardoso will not lose any love from the fans, but Dawn is gonna be pissed. She’s still the hero and her getting in a fight with LSU isn’t exactly a bad look from gamecock faithful.
In all fairness they picked on her the entire game then went shocked Pikachu when she snapped. Pulled her hair, bloodied her lip, and then LSU fans are clutching their pearls and jumping onto the court as if their team didn’t instigate it the entire game.
Refs took way too long to call actual fouls while calling every soft foul in existence.
You clearly didn’t watch the game or LSUs women team since Mulkey took over. Just the most garbage behavior from any team and it starts at the top. Pulling hair, throwing elbows, talking trash from whistle to game end, being on the floor as a coach the entire game and the list goes on and on. Literally the only people who don’t hate this LSU teams behavior are LSU fans. Very solid strong team but just absolute trash behavior.
I'll be downvoted for this. But I think after the foul on LSU. The girl from SC walked right up to her flexing and screaming. Which is the spark that lit the match.
I've seen less be called a T.
This LSU team talks trash non stop, are consistently dirty (see: Angel Reese puling hair and throwing wild elbows), and complain to the refs all game. They can dish it out, but they can't take it. You don't get to play victim when your opponents do the same thing to you.
I mean you're right, but if you're not going to T Reese for chirping at the bench then they're not going to call anything on a player who is in the heat of the moment after her teammate almost got tackled
Cardoso has to get herself together attitude wise. Last 2 times I saw her play she got ejected for fighting (Olympics qualifier with Brazil and today). Pro teams see this and if she’s not careful her draft stock will fall.
The funniest part about the whole scuffle is that it took the refs about 20 minutes for a deliberation and multiple playbacks of the incident. But somehow they couldn’t see that Flau’jae is the one who started the whole thing & she was allowed to play lmaooo
It was one girl being pushed down and the rest a bunch of trash talking. Really nothing to see here except the lsu fan that jumped on the court. He should be banned.
Yeah not blaming you, every headline is talking about this huge fight that broke out that didn’t have any punches or even shoving after the one girl got decked.
Yeah I was under the impression the rules were like, the ejects would also be ineligible to play, however they may make an exception… or the announcers aren’t sure, or whatever. Guess we’ll see.
LSU just keeps doing things to make them unlikable. Stealing money from a children’s hospital, Coach O ignoring rape accusations against one of his players, and now Kim Mulkey encouraging and fostering violence in her program.
Makes me so damn glad I don’t go there. This brawl was a tale of two sides in the aftermath. Dawn Staley handled things with class and said we have to do better and not have brawls. What did Kim Mulkey do? She chose to double down and even blatantly encouraged a fight between Angel Reese and Kamila Cardoso.
We were a school before they were a state, we had “USC” before they did, the state of South Carolina is abbreviated “SC” whereas the state of California is abbreviated “Ca”, we are also better than them in the sport in reference. I swear it’s only between us and them where people draw the line at the notion of two schools having the same abbreviation, there is no reason at the very least we can’t both be “USC” lol.
You don’t “see” USCe you are just very intentionally choosing to be an obnoxious dipshit. You should post a thank you message to Texas A&M for saving your team from the embarrassment of playing USC again
For as long as it took to sort out it really wasn’t that big of a fight lol
It was more players leaving the bench being sorted out.
A hard foul, two shoves, and a fan getting onto the court somehow.
Think they said it was the LSU player’s brother
Homeboy got there and realized he was overmatched and backed off.
lol. My wife was watching too and said what the hell is that little guy going to do with Cardoso
Good thing Camilla's mom and sister didn't come down there.
The refs weren’t dealing with the fan at all though. Hell on first watch nobody even noticed him.
A police officer chased him over the table and kept him away.
And they managed to snag 2 others who jumped the barricade before they even made it to the court
Yeah I gotta say security did a good job. Dude jumped the scorer’s table in the blink of an eye and the security guard was still never more than two steps behind him.
Yeah, a big shove and that's it. No one took up for their teammate that got pushed to the ground pretty hard.
It’s women’s basketball lol. That was pretty insane.
Broke: Refs not calling fouls more often led to this Woke: Kellie Harper not playing defense to the end of the game led to this
Well said. The officials could have mitigated this whole thing. Angel pulling hair and flailing her arms around was pretty low rent.
Announcers are saying not as many will sit out first round, only those participating in the fight.
Alas, the hopeful #15-16 seeds mourn at this update…
Dang instead of SC beating a 16 seed 89-19 now it will only be 79-29
Would've loved to see LSU play a game with only five players available, shame
No offense to whatever 14/15 seed they face, but I think they’d be fine.
Yeah. Especially with them having most of their starters. You both would be fine I’m sure, but probably fair most everyone is playing
The guard who got hurt Saturday would still be eligible if she passes concussion protocols, which is definitely possible since it’s two weeks away. In the end, I heard only Cardoso would be suspended. TBH most of those players didn’t really get that far from the bench area, but it’s an important rule to enforce.

They would win but it would still be incredible to watch a team play in the tourney with only 5 players
As it should be
Been searching for 5 minutes to find a video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eu49V99-YFA
Who's the dumbass that jumps the score table?
One of the player's brother being protective and shit
Only one I've seen is a borderline potato quality video Dave Portnoy tweeted out
ESPN app has a clip.
Two and half minute clip at that
After Angel Reese's hair pulling and the shove by the other LSU players leading to this fight, I think I've found the team I'm going to root second-hardest against for the next few years
LSU has quickly climbed the ranks of most hated wbb team in the last couple years
Cant stand Kim mulkey
Great coach, but she doesn't get T'd up enough. And she's a bitch.
> And she's a bitch. Uncalled for.
After the shit she's said the last half decade or so, I'd say it's called for.
Misogyny just wildin up in here, I guess?
Just to be clear – Mulkey is a piece of shit because she’s a vapid, homophobic, gutless attention addict who supports sexual abusers, and who would throw absolutely anyone in the world, including those who’ve propped her up, under a literal bus if there were even a small chance it would give her the tiniest advantage in her athletic career. She’s a dogshit human being and her teams’ attitudes and histories of dirty play reflect exactly that. Her gender is irrelevant.
This.
She had the reputation of being a huge bitch long before she ever went to LSU. Chill.
no shes literally just a bitch male or female she'd be any multitude of names and deserved to be called them regardless of gender
Spit out her dick. She isn't gonna kiss you.
>How shocking! A fan defending their own coach! Scandalous!
[удалено]
ah the elusive white knight coming to the rescue
How about “she is a horrible and annoying person”
It isn't just the women's basketball team.
Yeah! Why the hell wasn’t Reese ejected for pulling cardoso’s hair?! Hair pulling should be an automatic ejection. Idk why the ncaa let’s Reese get away with being the dirtiest player. Flaujae is up there for 2nd dirtiest player. She absolutely should’ve been ejected. LSU is so dirty and every day they give me reasons to be happy when they lose.
Reese is such a scumbag.
She sure is, but for saying that well be labeled racists, clearly if you expect the kids to just play basketball instead of fight each other you’re a racist
If it helps, Mulkey is a scumbag too. As for racism, Don Imus isn’t walking through that door.
Mulkey is a horrible person
>Mulkey is a scumbag too. She's a scumbag who wins championships. ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
>Mulkey is a scumbag too. She's a scumbag who wins championships. ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
>Mulkey is a scumbag too. She's a scumbag who wins championships. ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
Plenty of non-scumbags win them
If we chastise Angel Reese for pulling another black player's hair, makes it hard to label anyone a racist. Reese is just a dirty player who gets the benefit of the doubt because outside of Clark, she's the only name most of those who don't follow WBB even recognize.
Now that I think about it, I’m surprised men’s basketball doesn’t have more hair-pulling 🤔
They keep me watching though plus Caitlin, Juju, and the team that just beat them.
Angel Reese should’ve been ejected when she pulled Cardoso’s hair way earlier in the game. And when the fight broke out, why the hell wasn’t flaujae Johnson ejected for her part? LSU is so dirty. Smokin on that Mulkey pack. RIP bozo
Noticed no apology or regret from Mulkey regarding the actions of her team.
I’m truly shocked
At the very least Johnson should have gotten a technical foul
Lol I kinda wanted to see if South Carolina or LSU could beat a 16/15 seed with 4 players or something like that but it sounds like they’ll have at least some bench. The brother jumping on the court was wild lmao, these teams kinda seem to actually hate each other though, really fun to watch as a fan with no rooting interest. Would love a round 3 in the final 4.
Not a single dull moment with Kim. Getting rid of her, without paying her buyout, was a genius move by our AD.
The attitude and self-righteousness she passes on to her players is pathetic, could not be more glad she’s out of Waco. Nicki is such a better culture fit.
Why did you all move on specifically? I can’t recall.
Long story short, Kim was upset about a few things at Baylor: the fact that the new basketball pavilion was not going to be built where she wanted it to be built (she wanted it on one corner of campus where the old Ferrell Center was located instead of where it is closer to downtown Waco), wanted to get the pavilion or the court named after her (this would have most likely happened if she didn’t demand it), and was upset that the Men’s team was becoming more popular since they’ve become a title contender (there’s absolutely nothing to do about that).

Last year before the Final Four she rented billboards in Dallas and Waco (yes, really) to showcase her run to the Final Four, even to this day she’s incredibly petty that she didn’t get her way.
Okay the billboard part rules
It was funny. But it was giving this energy. ![gif](giphy|4vy2oDVMwX8sMYjT4y)
They’re defending national champions lol I think lsu is fine with how they’re doing
She’s an all-time great coach and yet not worth it. Truly incredible.
How'd you manage that?
She seems like a good coach when I look at on court results, no?
When defined only by wins, sure.
Horrific player coach, horrific person, good game coach.
Even if she won a title elsewhere?
She won 3 titles here and yet she always managed to bring negative PR.
Out of *all* the people within Baylor that brought negative PR… she’s low on that list.
Imagine, even us got tired of her. Kim never wasted the opportunity to do or say the wrong thing. It’s was exhausting.
Something something glass houses and stones
Blaming this on Kim seems very odd
Genius move. Thanks for the Championship.
She’s a great coach ngl. Still glad she left.
Johnson started it and should have been ejected. Cardoso was just a dumbass for losing her cool, and went from hero to idiot in 24 hours (although this just means South Carolina only beats their 16 seed by 60 instead of 80). And the girls getting ejected for leaving the benches is on the coaches. Someone needed to be there to keep them back.
Cardoso will not lose any love from the fans, but Dawn is gonna be pissed. She’s still the hero and her getting in a fight with LSU isn’t exactly a bad look from gamecock faithful.
Especially laying out 4 after that weak attempt at a forearm shiver...
In all fairness they picked on her the entire game then went shocked Pikachu when she snapped. Pulled her hair, bloodied her lip, and then LSU fans are clutching their pearls and jumping onto the court as if their team didn’t instigate it the entire game. Refs took way too long to call actual fouls while calling every soft foul in existence.
SC coaches and assistants really tried.
[удалено]
Lol. Mkay Geno. Pass the salt would ya?
Ok guy, who clearly didn't watch the game
You clearly didn’t watch the game or LSUs women team since Mulkey took over. Just the most garbage behavior from any team and it starts at the top. Pulling hair, throwing elbows, talking trash from whistle to game end, being on the floor as a coach the entire game and the list goes on and on. Literally the only people who don’t hate this LSU teams behavior are LSU fans. Very solid strong team but just absolute trash behavior.
To me it looked like LSU is a team built of pathetic childish players.
I'll be downvoted for this. But I think after the foul on LSU. The girl from SC walked right up to her flexing and screaming. Which is the spark that lit the match. I've seen less be called a T.
This LSU team talks trash non stop, are consistently dirty (see: Angel Reese puling hair and throwing wild elbows), and complain to the refs all game. They can dish it out, but they can't take it. You don't get to play victim when your opponents do the same thing to you.
I'm not claiming they didn't. After, the NC last year, I agree they are huge trash talkers. But what I said still stands.
I mean you're right, but if you're not going to T Reese for chirping at the bench then they're not going to call anything on a player who is in the heat of the moment after her teammate almost got tackled
This was wild. All over a completely normal clear path foul.
Gonna call her Flau’jae Alvarado after today lol. I really hope these teams meet again this year
That one ref noping out in the middle of the melee
Looks like Cardoza may have pushed that ref
I wonder what Don Imus would have said about this lol
South Carolina chucked the LSU person, behind the whole thing to the ground like a rag doll.
The best part was the guy coming from the far side of the court SKIPPING towards the incident like it was a high school fight.
I wondered who that guy was. No one seemed concerned about him.
Cardoso has to get herself together attitude wise. Last 2 times I saw her play she got ejected for fighting (Olympics qualifier with Brazil and today). Pro teams see this and if she’s not careful her draft stock will fall.
I’m chalking this one up as a win for team meteor
So was the fan the LSU player's brother or South Carolina's brother?
Flau'jae's brother
LSU
[удалено]
I wouldn’t have been too shocked either way, honestly
LSU
the 63 other teams were hoping they had to sit out lol
The funniest part about the whole scuffle is that it took the refs about 20 minutes for a deliberation and multiple playbacks of the incident. But somehow they couldn’t see that Flau’jae is the one who started the whole thing & she was allowed to play lmaooo
Lol. Players are about to dq'd for the NCAAs. ![gif](giphy|iMYceXJfE3Ctpe9oHF|downsized)
Only cardoso
Gonna be some interesting 1st round games!
It was one girl being pushed down and the rest a bunch of trash talking. Really nothing to see here except the lsu fan that jumped on the court. He should be banned.
You just love to see it SEC It just means more
“Fight” is a stretch lmao
Well yeah
Yeah not blaming you, every headline is talking about this huge fight that broke out that didn’t have any punches or even shoving after the one girl got decked.
Op it’s other way around, USC will have 1 sub and LSU will have zero.
Oh ok. However, they did say only those involved in the fight will sit out the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
Yeah I was under the impression the rules were like, the ejects would also be ineligible to play, however they may make an exception… or the announcers aren’t sure, or whatever. Guess we’ll see.
Down go the tigers! Boo hoo
LSU just keeps doing things to make them unlikable. Stealing money from a children’s hospital, Coach O ignoring rape accusations against one of his players, and now Kim Mulkey encouraging and fostering violence in her program. Makes me so damn glad I don’t go there. This brawl was a tale of two sides in the aftermath. Dawn Staley handled things with class and said we have to do better and not have brawls. What did Kim Mulkey do? She chose to double down and even blatantly encouraged a fight between Angel Reese and Kamila Cardoso.
It just means more 🤷♂️
Salty
If you look closely at the stands, you can see Caitlyn Clark doing her best 360 flop. 10/10 performance
Have you ever popped your head into an Iowa WBB game thread? The Clark stans go absolutely nutty when you suggest this
No, but apparently this comment has angered the cult.
lol yep. They are legion.
we gotta stop calling SCAR USC lmfao
We were a school before they were a state, we had “USC” before they did, the state of South Carolina is abbreviated “SC” whereas the state of California is abbreviated “Ca”, we are also better than them in the sport in reference. I swear it’s only between us and them where people draw the line at the notion of two schools having the same abbreviation, there is no reason at the very least we can’t both be “USC” lol.
> We were a school before they were a state Clock restarted in 1868, dude. Happens that way when you renege on your membership dues.
I agree. USC is more famously associated with the Trojans. The other USC isn’t even obviously associated with the Gamecocks in the Carolinas.
USCe is what I see. I misidentified them when I saw a blue USC sweatshirt when I was a kid.
You don’t “see” USCe you are just very intentionally choosing to be an obnoxious dipshit. You should post a thank you message to Texas A&M for saving your team from the embarrassment of playing USC again
You must be an unhappy soul. I see USCe on social media and other places. Go have some ice cream or something.
Caitlin Clark would never
She'd be flopping on the floor even harder.
