The Caitlin Clark racism narrative is essentially faux information … so suggests Dan Dakich who tells us the dislike in the course of the essential common decide on is pure jealousy!

Clark’s been gettin’ beat up due to the truth her WNBA debut final thirty day period — all of us located what Chennedy Carter did to the Fever celebrity final weekend — so we requested Dakich, a earlier Indiana Hoosier participant and coach, if it is merely basketball … or 1 point else.

“After all, she’s currently being concentrated,” Dakich, host of Outkick’s “Do not @ Me” instructed Babcock on the “TMZ Sporting activities activities” Tv present (earlier to the Olympic employees members snub).

“There’s a bit of small little bit of racism or sexism in there, you fully grasp, straight white lady, ok, on the other hand that ain’t it to me.”

Dakich, 61, suggests it is mainly jealousy. Clark obtained a mega cope with Nike (price virtually $30 mil) that functions a signature sneaker … and her presence in just the WNBA has also prompted record-breaking figures all through the board — Tv rankings, attendance, and jersey gross sales incorporated.

In distinct phrases, Caitlin’s been topped the WNBA savior and the reverse players plainly do not need it. In true truth, Dakich’s wife or husband Leigh, who coached Syracuse softball for lots of years, even instructed him that girls commonly detest seeing one of a kind girls get to sports pursuits.

“She stated you will be aware unbelievable pettiness and jealousy,” Dakich stated. “We’re observing a variety of that.”

On the total of the day, a spending spending budget shots on Clark are bigger than only a “welcome to the WNBA, rookie” … and regardless of Fever frequent supervisor Lin Dunn lobbying the league to step in and defend their star, she’s even so locating beat up.
