@game7__ So you think if she wore a different jacket her team would've shot better?

This is why Dawn Staley will never be a true legend. It's all Balenciaga and Louis Vuitton and whatever is best for Dawn Staley. Of course her players can't win the big one... their coach is too worried about her brand to actually care about what UCLA is doing. Again, Dawn Staley wore a $2,300 Balenciaga jacket to the national championship game tonight. No South Carolina logo. No team colors. No Gamecocks branding anywhere on her. Her team lost 79-51. That jacket tells you more than the score does. Staley is a decent enough coach. Three national championships. A perfect 38-0 season in 2024. Five National Coach of the Year awards. The highest-paid women's basketball coach in the country at $4.25 million a year. But somewhere along the way, Dawn Staley the coach became Dawn Staley the brand. Her fans call her "Louis Vuitton Dawn." She wore Gucci for the first round this year. Balenciaga for the second. Gucci again for the Sweet 16. Louis Vuitton for the Final Four. There are entire articles dedicated to ranking her outfits by round. WWD tracks her sideline looks. Essence runs features on her style. She published a memoir last year called "Uncommon Favor" that became a New York Times bestseller. None of that is a crime. She's allowed to be all of those things. But tonight she stood on the sideline in a luxury brand's name while her team put up the worst title-game performance in program history. South Carolina shot 29% from the field. 2-for-15 from three. Their starters went 8-for-31. Joyce Edwards, their leading scorer, was held to 3-for-10 for eight points. UCLA outscored South Carolina 25-9 in the third quarter. That's the largest single-quarter margin in championship game history. By the end of that quarter it was 61-32. South Carolina averages 86.5 points per game. They scored 51. That's 35 points below their own standard in the biggest game of the year. Meanwhile, Gabriela Jaquez had 21 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists. Only the fifth player in history to put up a 20-10-5 in a title game. Lauren Betts had 14 and 11. UCLA's six seniors scored every single one of their 79 points. Cori Close won her first national championship in her 15th year at UCLA. She wasn't trending for what she was wearing. The full story on how Dawn Staley's brand showed up and her coaching didn't is here: itsgame7.com/news/dawn-stal… Two days ago, Staley beat UConn 62-48 in the Final Four. She looked every bit the championship coach. Geno Auriemma melted down so badly that assistants had to separate them near the scorer's table. Two days later, her team came out flat against UCLA, fell behind early, never adjusted, and got run off the floor by a team that wanted it more. The third-largest margin of victory in title game history. The Balenciaga jacket didn't cause the loss. UCLA was better. Their defense suffocated South Carolina. Their size inside was a problem the Gamecocks never solved. But when you show up to a national championship game wearing somebody else's name instead of your school's, and your team looks like they forgot whose name they were supposed to be playing for too, the image sticks. She's still rich and famous. Good for her. But tonight, the brand showed up and the coaching didn't.

@bingbongbills I think that's what he always wears

what the fuck is this outfit

@JeremyWGR Lacks frivolity

Sirianni and Payton in shorts. Lot of muted tones here. Even Andy Reid's party shirt is subdued.

@EV_Ohio Enjoy the balmy shores of lake Erie!! 😂

🚨ANNOUNCEMENT II🚨 Three years. No days off. No paywalls. That doesn’t change but a few things will for the next week. I’m heading out on vacation to a non betting jurisdiction first thing in the morning. The main plays will still be posted and tracked with links and screenshots. I’ll aim to have everything posted around lunch each day. You’ll have to cut me some slack on replies and DMs. I’m not leaving you guys completely in the dark but don’t expect the usual level of access or attentiveness. Let’s cash some beach dingers this week!

@GetZootUS 0,00

Put this in casino terms please 🤣

@robpizzola Read for a while and didn't see this mentioned but, @BallparkPal

A decade ago I was betting MLB overnights for 2k a pop off a Monte Carlo sim built on free Steamer projections and finishing seasons up 50+ units. That same model today would get absolutely cooked. The market evolution in baseball betting has been insane. Where is the edge now?

MAC MCCLUNG IS DIFFERENT 💯 McClung’s 59-point game last night pushed him past Renaldo Major (5,299) to become the G League’s all-time leading scorer across the Tip-Off Tournament, regular season, and playoffs 🔥 Does he deserve a spot on an NBA roster? 🤔

@EV_Ohio 👀 Let's go!!!🤞

@CamdenCaps Where does Brice Sensabaugh rate 😂

Best players in the league (with everyone healthy) Jokic SGA Giannis Luka Wemby Kawhi Ant Cade Mitch Brunson/Brown

@WetNoodlePicks You really gonna rely on Westbrook?

2 guys who crash the boards hard in decent matchups. Both straight

Turner sat the last 5:37… it was an 8 point game…

@SneakyJoeSports Tarron Johnson replacement? I don't know much about the player

Dee Alford career snaps... 1660 slot corner 225 boundary corner 277 special teams

Dan Dunleavy calling the Malenstyn fight is wild. Who knew he had that bag in his club?

@TTelford84 @AnomalyXRP They are bipolar with their rewards. I'll go weeks without any boosts, then one day 5 boosts with $200 maxes, the next day $10 🤷

@AnomalyXRP Fanatics just hooked me up with 100% match

Haven’t gotten a deposit match on FD in months

@lifewithmikey52 I will bet any of you that the first segment will be about the Sabres

Schopp will lead off the show tomorrow talking about the McGovern signing

Hey @gothamsports, just trying to watch the Sabres game. You know, the thing that I pay you for.

@tyvansb Yeah the variance is crazy, it makes it almost unsustainable at times. One thing I've been trying this season is taking nights off. No picks, no angles no hooks. Just watch basketball. It helps me come back refocused and think the game on a different level.

NBA Season will really put you through hell and back man. So many amazing highs and rock bottom lows. Salute to the people who are unbothered by the variance, especially public figures who are transparent. Something I desperately need to improve at personally

@joeroganhq I don't like Dave or his ratings, but this is his best one. Ever.

Theo Von: "I've always been like an 8 on looks..." Dave Portnoy: "An 8? Out of a 10?" Theo: "Yeah." Dave: "That's a f*cking super high score."
