LSU Kim Mulkey, Angel Reese & Hailey Van Lith, NCAA Tournament interview before 1st game with Rice.

LSU head women's basketball coach Kim Mulkey along with Tiger players Angel Reese and Hailey Van Lith spoke with the media Thursday afternoon on the eve of their first round NCAA tournament game versus Rice.

[@1toughGplayer]

I just wish Symia Smith was playing she'd be a lot of help in this final four this season

[@Birthright11]

Yea that was a big loss. I think If she was healthy, SC wouldn’t have won both of those games..

[@fratersol]

One game at a time

[@kekeinthehole]

I sure miss smith!!!

[@aiichadejanee]

Yesss omg . She’s the depth that they need. Know how to score in the pain and would also be a great defender. I’m actually really salty she’s not playing😢

[@kekeinthehole]

@@aiichadejaneeWhat made it worse is she worked her butt off over the summer and you could see that the work had paid off and she was primed for a good season.. Broke my heart!! But, she will be back next year and might have an extra year of eligibility to play..

[@TamiaJackson-zp7ky]

Absolutely correctly , 5v5 can’t no team fw Lsu in my opinion , it’s just sometimes they get tired & stop playing at the best of their ability ! Or all of them are not in the game mentally everybody has to want it

[@RGibson116]

Angel and Hailey, Wow! You both were on a whole 'nother level with this interview 😊! So impressed with your growth, articulation, maturity and overall professionalism! Now, take all that to the court because everybody need to 👀 what y'all working with 😂❤🙏!!!

LSU❤

[@kekeinthehole]

If LSU can play consistent, they are a force to be reckoned with..I actually think a lot people are underestimating them..I think they are coming in as an underdog which is a better spot to be in..

[@martinb.8681]

A lot of the country hates LSU mainly for being successful and Mulkey being a grenade always ready to go off. I'm a UConn grad but think Mulkey is good for the sport. She's dresses colorfully, behaves colorfully and is colorful Plus she's good coach. I'm looking for a team, perhaps LSU to end Iowa's over rated season and perhaps get to the final four. They won't be winning the championship this year South Carolina will but they should have a good run.

[@michaelpinell1861]

I would get off that train while you're near home. Unfortunately, Carolina may have peaked too early. Sweet 16 will be very far from home so, we shall see. Their team was wayyy better last year despite the lack of 3 point shooting. Iowa's 3 pointers spread them and they couldn't defend it. Races are won in the last stretch and this LSU team is looking like we thought they would late as I expected.

LSU is Godzilla as far as a huge target by standards "deserved and undeserved!", and Godzilla is coming ashore! .They know and Have to be ready!!, the Guards will take us to the Podium, the best part , they have fire and know they will compete!! .

Deadly duo … definitely part of a big 3 and the ultimate 5 lets go lsu

[@TheTigah]

After 3 decades of coaching WBB in HS and college, I have never watched WNBA games. I only followed a few individual players in the WNBA box scores; but I haven't done that since before 2010. I've watched more WBB pro games overseas.

[@bernardriggs2079]

You one of the problems for the W .😂

[@TheTigah]

@@bernardriggs2079 . . . Facts are hard for some. I'm not going to support something "just because" if I view it as not worth my time. I don't watch soccer either. Or curling. Or boxing. Or golf. Or others. If you like it, go for it. Do what's best for you.

[@bernardriggs2079]

lol

[@bernardriggs2079]

We going into battle against a tuff and determined enemies . Some of you won’t make it out . But be tough and fight like hell . When it’s over just know you gave it your best . No regrets if you spends after the contest it’s your best effort .One by one !

[@Romii11223]

That was a really great answer from Angel.

[@KRYSTALHATCHETT]

Angel Reese broke down her NIL deal long term without having everyone in her business she's is going to be FINE since we all know WNBA doesn't pay their players they way they should that's why they choose to play overseas for extra income...

Angel has that aura bout her

[@curtishaskins9627]

Yall struggled against rice REALLY

[@ljsmixbox44]

I still say that the NIL messed up a lot of college athletes by paying them because of Name, Image & Likeness. College athletes are now looking to go to college because of the NIL rather than having a good GPA...👎🏽 After these athletes have proven themselves in college. That's when they have a Name, Image and Likeness when they become a professional. That's when they should get paid. That's the next level. I feel that the NCAA is not fair because a lot of college students have to depend on financial aid, loans and grants to stay in school, and they are the ones supporting these athletes by making it a sold out arena or stadium. Because these athletes cannot be successful without the fans support. And they know this. I can't make this up.
