Dawn Staley - Fighting for Equal Pay and Inspiring Coaches of Color | The Daily Show

[@goodknightcarolina]

Coach Staley is by far the best thing to happen in South Carolina in a while. She deserves every penny of her contract and some.

[@rebelforacause2589]

Wow. Coach Dawn Staley. A warrior for women, for others. A hero in our time. Loved this interview.

[@karlacorona7426]

She has been my shero since I was a young girl playing bball, watching her in the Olympics with the USA women’s bball poster hanging in my room! This was so inspiring! Thank you for having her on! 🙏🏽

[@rkms5606]

Yesss!!!

[@vanderglobe]

I love Dawn!❤ It’s tournament time. I’m booking for Vegas. GO GET IT, Dawn!!❤👍

[@jadebattiste1774]

Love Dawn Staley for so many reasons. Thank you for what you give to the game and your community.

[@moniquej369]

She deserves all of the success she’s getting. I hope she keeps doing great things for Women’s basketball. 👍🏾

[@beardgangman]

Dawn Staley is a winner on all levels and a very beautiful one at that

[@alimuh007]

I've been a fan and an admirer of Coach Staley since the Olympics and the beginning of the WNBA

[@missright9159]

So proud of Dawn! She's (literally) going places. She is truly some SC pride!

[@Joan1able]

She's expansive and humble even in her justified low key brag she's earned it all and she's giving back so cool😊

GREAT INTERVIEW, TREVOR LAUGHTER IS PRICELESS, COACH STALEY YOU ROCKS 👍

Dawn is a ROCKSTAR

[@mlggamer5296]

Oh I like her she's cool I like that tradition of giving the nets or the piece of the net to different coaches inclusive of black men coaches and to black journalists. It shows that she recognizes that everybody is important in the field of sports.

Beautiful Baby!!!!!..... SHE IS ONE OF THE BEST WITH HER HARD WORK AND DEDICATION.. AS A PLAYER NOW A COACH... CHAMPIONSHIP COACH!!!!... TWICE!!!!.... YOU GO COACH!!!💯😎👍💢🏀🏆

so awesome! I'm showing her coaching documentary to one of the students I work with in the 10th grade. Wants to play ball but doesn't go to class!

Look at you Coach!!! Awesome! So proud!

[@MsKylea]

I wanted this interview to be longer!!

[@ronniedavis9158]

Luv ya dawn congrats. Spurs up!!

[@jaycepero8069]

She deserves whatever she’s asking for. She wins more than her male counterpart at SC, and the reality is the women’s basketball team is the athletic face of that university. No one gives a rip about Gamecock football and men’s basketball. In a Russian accent: Pay that woman her money!

With respect, Ms. Staley, as a dog trainer, your comment that training dogs is not like training people: you're right. Training dogs is way easier. Dogs actually listen.

[@Ladybug211211]

Dog trainers agree.

[@robertpendergrass7996]

Lol !!✌

[@mlggamer5296]

Facts my sis owns a dog as well so that's very true

[@miwawilliams1339]

People not listening.... is why training dogs gets difficult. The dog goes home & owner undermines all training. Smh

All my respekt to all the women athlets out there and all of their coaches. They coud reach way more, if they were more supported, similar how the male atheletes are supported. In some parts of sports, women not even reached their peak yet.

[@deansheets]

Dont forget about the female teams that are light years ahead in there game compared to the males. Example is the US woman soccer team who actually won the world cup. (They deserved to be paid as much, if not more for bringing trophies back to the US).

The problem with this is that the WNBA loses $10,000,000.00 a year. The league is a business that has failed. You don't normally expect a raise when your business is hemorrhaging millions of dollars a year.

[@BigRelly1]

I stand by my statement. If the WNBA lowered their rims to 9 ft, the ratings would skyrocket. The only thing that's truly missing in their league that's affecting ratings, which in turn affects revenue and the salary cap.... is one player dunking on another. Imagine a player in game posterizing another player. But the pride of these women are preventing this from happening.
