So stupid and so offensive.

@_girltalk Still not over not making the 2016 Olympic team 10 years later. No teammate cared. It was the best Olympic team EVER. Candace skipped World Cup while other stars didn’t and she then expected to make Olympic team. That after she played soft in 2012 against Australia.

Candace Parker on Geno Auriemma’s behavior post-loss vs SC: “When he’s whooping your ass and you are not a threat, there’s grace. Every person that has won against him or challenged him… This is what their relationship is.” Dawn, Pat Summit, Arike, Caitlin… History tracks.

@BizerkJerk 😂

@BizerkJerk She’s bitter over 2016 Olympic team.

@Rosa_taxidriver Candace still bitter and blames Geno for keeping her off the 2016 Olympic team. It was a committee decision. No other team member was upset because they all knew she wanted to receive special treatment. I can blow off World Cup and expect to be on Olympics. USA BB said no.

The beef with geno started when geno started beating pat in the title games… Again… Yal want wbb to be treated like mbb.. but also want wbb to be treated like its a debutant ball and everyone must be best friends at all times

@MaryAnnAhernNBC Captain obvious award.

Should have said this in the first apology.

@clarencehilljr Geno told us ‘bout Pat. She was human too and didn’t always behave like a grownup. See Moore, Maya and her mother. Too much made about people showing their humanity which isn’t always pretty. Same with Dawn and her foul language directed at refs.

This who Dawn is and has always been Pat summit told yall about Geno

@Co2dy_Foster Don’t call people you don’t know jerks. Whatever you might think about poor behavior — all humans behave badly on occasion - it should not define most. There are plenty of good people with good judgment who know them. I trust their judgment, not your uninformed opinion.

@Bakari_Sellers Like your January 2025 tweet when you referred to Sarah Strong as "the young lady in Storrs" rather than saying her name. Sit this one out.

You could’ve put her name in it. Spelled DAWN.

@byBDavis You do realize UConn would love to be in a P4 conference, right? You do realize UConn scheduled tough non-conference, right? What exactly is your point? Why didn't it matter last year or when UConn was in the dreadful AAC? Come on. Be smarter.

I mean, when your biggest deficit before tonight was 6 points all season, how good was your schedule top to bottom?

@IssaVolThang Of course, there are sooooo many men coaching in the women's game.

First it was Pat. Then it was Muffet. Now it’s Dawn…why Geno never buck up and have that same smoke for other men???

@Amy_Siskind Time for you do stick to whatever it is you do. Stop telling people you don't know what to do. It's stupid.

Time for Geno to retire.

@KevinFrazier You know Big East is not UConn's choice, right? Or are you just stupid for not knowing that. He does schedule strong out of conference. Idiotic take. BTW, what about last year? Also in the Big East.

Two things … #DawnStaley coached a masterpiece. Meanwhile #Uconn needs to seriously look at their schedule. #BigEast is killing them, it’s fools gold winning that league

@DanWolken @YahooSports Right. He punched an opposing player. Good call. Moron.

Geno Auriemma came far closer to a Woody Hayes moment Friday night than anyone should be comfortable with. It was a warning sign. And hopefully there are people in his life who will tell him the truth. Column for ⁦@YahooSports⁩ sports.yahoo.com/mens-college-b…

@JoeGorchowTV She's a foul-mouthed bully towards refs. Gets away with it. Good for her.

Dawn Staley is as classy as they come. Her response to Geno’s poor attitude and behavior after his Huskies lost badly shows you the type of leader she is. #Gamecocks physically dominated and imposed their will. Utterly shocked by Geno doing what he did after the defeat.

@scott_fowler So now you're a shrink? Stick to writing or whatever it is you do.

My theory on UConn coach Geno Auriemma embarrassing himself last night at the women's Final Four: He made it all about himself and a supposed "slight" to distract people from the simple fact he was completely outcoached by USC's Dawn Staley.

@JosinaAnderson Listening will help you in life. He didn't say what you said he said. He reacted poorly but it was her making him wait for the handshake that bothered him. Gamesmanship on her part.

If Geno Auriemma doesn’t deliver a full-throated apology to Dawn Staley for his sore loser antics & a recantation of his false claim and excuse that Staley did not shake his hand pregame, some of UConn’s future recruits need to rethink joining his program & take their talents elsewhere. Auriemma’s postgame behavior from the court to the mic was that self-illuminating, but not beyond self-reflection. In the meantime, Auriemma’s antics are triggering for anyone who has experienced other individuals starting issues at work and claiming innocence in their victim facade afterwards, while getting others to focus on the reaction. That manipulation is reprehensible & deserves to be called out. Sportsmanship is about handling losing and someone else being better than you with grace, & not trying to warp and wrap a salty core with lies, projection & blame-shifting. Dawn Staley, once again, is moving on to the Championship round. Deal with it like others did when they celebrated Auriemma’s well-earned victories too.

@McFaul Maybe you should stick to foreign policy.

Maybe Geno needs to retire.

@ChildersRadio He didn't say that. Pay attention to what he said. Tough, but your IQ should be able to handle that much.

Is Geno ok? Like, honestly. He says there was no handshake pregame, and yet there was. He said South Caroline ripped his player's jersey when she clearly ripped it herself. Is he ok?

@JonHeyman Wrong. Provide evidence over the years. You should stick to baseball. More to the point, stick to being Boras's stenographer. That is all you're really good at. But hey, it pays your bills.

Auriemma legacy: Frequent winner, terrible loser
