this isn't the dig you're under the impression it might be -

https://www.essence.com/gallery/dawn-staley-game-outfits/

she is sought out by designers to wear their clothes -
quote:

With the nation watching, she’s pulled off memorable style moments featuring pieces by Louis Vuitton, R13, and Gucci to name a few brands. Her eye for sleek, logo-heavy pieces, jackets in particular have led to her nickname “Louis Vuitton Dawn.” Staley’s penchant for designer items is considerably important. Basketball is a somewhat flashy sport so, it’s particularly refreshing to see her experiment with logo T-shirts, bomber jackets, and hoodies. Her looks offer an elevated juxtaposition to the stylish tunnel looks that are a part of leagues like the NBA.


she is in Gamecock gear every day around Columbia and in media spots - also when she's got the stomach to attend a men's hoops game -

I give two craps about girls basketball. Waste of athletic department money. She's a racist that doesn't appreciate that she even has a
job in a profession that loses money every year, yet stands on her soapbox and feels oppressed. Give me a break

The Nathan Bedford Forrest of basketball. Tactically brilliant, personally heinous.

Well ... I seriously doubt that you know her personally.

I do, and she knows me. Calls me Rooster, and she's a hoot in person.

I've had some issues with some of the things she's said and done. In particular refusing to go to the White House under Trump, but happily going under biden. But I think we've gotten through to her on the negative optics of that and, hopefully, her political bullshite virtue signaling is over ... if for no other reason, for the sake of the girls and the polarizing signal it sends.

In person though, she's very nice. She doesn't hate anyone. She is a product of her upbringing, her genetics and her very impressionable years at UVA and in the WNBA ... similar to 99% of the women who have traveled along a similar path in a woke college environment and inside an extremely woke professional culture.

Her voice is louder because of her fame and fortune. A Hall of Famer who some consider the Michael Jordan of women's basketball. The firat woman to have a Nike shoe named after her. Five olympic Gold Medals representing the U.S. both as a player and a coach.

She worships Pat Head Summit, among other women who have broken through perceived barriers. She definitely leans way left but, again, she is a product of her Philly upbringing, a broken home in the ghetto, mixed race, obstacles to overcome, etc.

She grabbed herself up by the bootstraps and has risen to the top.

She's also one of the most generous, if not THE MOST generous, philanthropic, human beings on the planet .... especially on behalf of needy, underprivileged children. She goes out of her way to visit children, and elderly, in hospitals all over the SEC. She gives and raises millions. She is always available for good, worthy, causes.

And this thing about hating white men ... it's just not true. She's an equal opportunity hating beyotch when it comes to some things ...as are ALL suicidaly empathetic liberal women of her generation.

She has an extremely good heart though, she is a political person, there's no denying that.

She's also an unabashed SEC fanatic ... she loves The South and our people and she loves The SEC. She's had countless opportunities to leave ... and she's turned them all down choosing instead to set down roots here.

If you don't have her wear school gear while getting paid by the school, that's on your school.

For some reason, this made me smile. (And I generally have a very strong dislike for Tennessee....)

Let's not forget the Lady Gamecocks would of coasted to a title in the COVID year. Nobody was even close to us. Also the refs blatantly cheating for Stanford in the final 4 cost her another title. She should have 4.

No one would even place her in the top 20 all-time women's basketball players.

We have a couple baseball titles, women's titles and a mens final 4 in the last 15 years along with multiple top 10 football finishes including getting jobbed out of the playoffs last year. Yes how dare South Carolina fans talk sports. We don't understand them at all.
