It is a tone deaf request on Jill's (and her advisors) part. Just like Jill's 'taco' comments in the past. Clueless. It is a joke, and Angel is right. Our 1984-1985 team should have been invited to the White House, if that is the case. Opposing team shot 75%, Reggie got hurt, and we still only lost by 2. Watch out. The touchy-feely crowd will be coming for you…

Still quite amazing that they easily dominated every team outside the Big East but lost 8 times to 6 different Big East teams.

Way to go Big East. NCAA Champs and NCAA coach of the year. Think UCONN will ever get "blue blood" recognition along with UNC, Kentucky, Kansas, or Duke? Five titles in 24 years. 5 title since 1999! What was happening with GUbasketball back in 1999? Thanks JT2! His legacy…

If this were about respect for Iowa, I might be with you. This is about a “teachable moment” and is a load of crap. Sorry to offend your delicate sensibilities. Dr. Jill Biden it is. Left out the “get off my lawn,” El.

Not amazing… it’s familiarity… No , it’s the Big East is the best conference in the world. Shaheen Holloway and Seton Hall and even Medicore Kyle Neptune and Villanova would have beaten most of these teams Big east probably should have had 7-8 teams in the tourney and been seeded alot higher

But, it’s familiarity.

Right, cause ghuck those second place losers. They don’t deserve any respect. Reese is showing exactly how much class she has w comments like that. Try winning with class next time Angela, see how that feels. If this were about respect for Iowa, I might be with you. This is about a “teachable moment” and is a load of crap. Monster irony coming from a supporter of a guy who claims he won when the scoreboard makes clear he’s a loser.

Calhoun said had they not hit their rough patch earlier in this year, they would not be where they are now. Interestingly enough, Calhoun is involved with their program. Gives Hurley advice, etc. and speaks to the team. Shows up at practices sometimes. 3 Big East teams in the sweet sixteen. Creighton was possibly a touch foul away from the Final Four. Not a coincidence.

Do you agree Dr. Biden’s husband won the 2020 presidential election? Your deflection is not amusing or productive. I believe anything that adds to the respect and recognition given to elite women athletes is productive and worthy, even if the effort is sometimes misguided. And I believe Reese needs to grow up a bit - stop the trash talk once the battle is won kid.

I believe this is the kind of everybody gets a trophy crap that has created a generation of prize-entitled veal. LSU won. They get a ring. They get the White House visit. Nobody else should get anything.

Angel Reese may have made herself into a bit of a clown, but only the winners get to go to the White House.

Good to see the kid has more sense than Dr. Jill. Love Caitlin’s response. Trash talkers get it —both the giving and receiving. And this strikes me as like the sensitivity over football touchdown celebrations: I never played the game and long ago aged out of being in touch with any sort of “should” as perceived by players today. They may irritate me (indeed they do) — but I don’t think they are intended or received by the players as the unacceptable taunt that I see them to be…

Holy cheese Batman - Hurley’s wife got a championship ring? Weak sauce I think they are holding up 5 fingers for 5 championships. They clearly do not have rings yet. And I don't think Hurley is even wearing a ring.
