LSU’s head women’s basketball coach made some interesting comments after her team’s late-game kerfuffle with South Carolina’s women’s basketball team.

There’ll be opinions galore posted all over the interwebs in the aftermath of South Carolina’s extremely physical battle with the LSU Tigers for the SEC Women’s Basketball Tournament Title on Sunday afternoon.

When interviewed immediately after the game, Gamecock head coach Dawn Staley publicly apologized for her team’s role in the late-game fiasco that saw Kamilla Cardoso ejected and several bench players from both sides after a scrum broke out due to some extracurriculars.

Of course, LSU Tigers coach Kim Mulkey was asked in her postgame press conference what she saw from her vantage point, and while the majority of her answer objectively made sense, the end of her answer was eyebrow-raising, to say the least.

“It’s ugly. It’s not good. No one wants to be a part of that. No one wants to see that ugliness, but I can tell you this: I wish [Kamilla Cardoso] would’ve pushed Angel Reese.

Don’t push a kid; you’re 6’8. Don’t push somebody that little.

That was uncalled for, in my opinion. Let those two girls that were jawing go at it.”

To be fair, it’s unknown whether or not Mulkey had gone back and seen the whole sequence of events that led to Cardoso doing what she did, but either way, it’s a good thing that some time will pass before both of these teams potentially meet up again in the NCAA Tournament.
