LOVE that the great #DawnStaley DOES. NOT. go the “respectability” route when folk are CLEARLY disrespecting her.

Some ppl ARE STILL excusing him— as in “in his head, HE REALLY THOUGHT she HAD made him wait for the handshake.”😶

This society’s COMMITMENT to giving white men benefit of doubt.🙄

Well Geno, the SC coaches’ name is #DawnStaley. That’s who you owe an apology to. She is the one who took the abuse. My gawd, you are bad at this…

"His actions took away SC’s moment - their win tonight. This is sad because this is all the media is talking about. I think it was done on purpose. He realized he was losing the battle and had to concoct some lies and be petty about something simple as a hand shake."

It seems to me that #DawnStaley and the #SouthCarolinaGamecocks should have all of the attention, having won their game in decisive style.

But of course, the guy throwing a fit and embarrassing his players gets all the press.
