Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

I never said she wasn't being a diva or exaggerating, the earlier poster said there was no contact and I just pointed out that yes, there was contact. Lol. The level to which she triggers some of you is really funny.

124 pages. As a Cyclone fan I’m embarrassed. I watched the kid for years, is she perfect no, too much drama, yes. But she is a good kid, and everyone I know says so. Bothers me the same way Iowa fans trash Purdy and say he’s not good. It’s dumb.

She's an amazing offensive talent... I've given her credit for that a ton. Great shooter and passer. Great vision. Not even a question about that.

The only thing that triggers me is her flopping, arrogance, and being such a drama queen. It's a terrible look. Marcus Smart was a great player too... but his antics on the court were so over the top it was just laughable and annoying.

Anyone not admitting these things about CC are not being honest with themselves. I've admitted it about Lipsey... the flailing when barely even touched part. Lipsey does not flop, and is not anywhere near as dramatic or arrogant as CC though. But at least I can admit he flails. Hawkeye fans just cannot admit all the negative aspects about CC's game... but they all know it's the truth.

I want to see TJ run onto the court, carry Tamin off, and then reinsert him a minute later to have him drop 25 points.

I will give her credit as possibly being the best shooter and passer I've ever seen in women's college basketball. That is some pretty high praise right there. But best all around WBB college player ever.... I'm not so sure about that.

Not a good comparison

That's because Tamin isn't a drama queen... which I never said he was. But when someone barely touches Tamin... sometimes he will flail and try to get the call. But tons of players do that. But it does tick me off.

Maya Moore the CC. If CC wins a conference title for once she’s really elevating

I’m embarrassed you just compared Caitlin Clark to Brock Purdy. You owe Brock an apology.

Probably, what gets lost is yes she is a great woman’s basketball player but the insufferable acting jobs is unnecessary and completely for attention to pad her ego

I'm not really sure what she has to gain from it, she's already the best player on any court she steps on, gets the most preferential treatment by refs of any player in college basketball, and runs a system that is literally just built to get her open looks.

Sure but he also does it to draw a foul not wait for the training staff to carry him away

Agreed, and she already gets enough attention as well obviously so I don’t think anyone knows why.

Drama Queen is probably the word. She milks every opportunity.
