- Sport
As an LSU fan keep your heads up ladies you all had a great year.
I like this coach a lot, she opened the interview with accountability and then spoke strongly about what went right and went wrong with her team,
I'm an LSU fan but I have to say this UCLA was a great team and these girls seem like great athletes and great leaders for there team. I always feel for the teams that lose. I am pulling for my team but it always hurts to get this close. And them having to face the press after seems like torture, I kind of hate it.
VL made UCLA look better than they were. #Respectfully 😐🏀
The refs game LSU that game......once again
@@user-lb7ef2qi9myou’re making excuses once again they’re the defending champions stop complaining 😂
Is this the same coach that reposted hateful comments about LSU student athletes
It is pure torture!
LSU fan 💜💛 BUT UCLA played a hell of a game! 💪🏾
They definitely did!!
UCLA is just getting started, the next recruiting class coming in is going to be wild. Good luck LSU and congrats on advancing.
Exactly it will be fun to watch all these teams grow! They were incredible to watch and they stayed poised.
Ucla coach can’t get the best out of them
@@bernardriggs2079then you absolutely don’t know Cori. She was an AMAZING player, and an even more amazing coach that leads, guides, and provides for her players
@@JL-gm3je I cant tell . Cori guards looked like SC guards from a year ago . The head coach focus so much on going into the post so much the guards game disappear . Osborne and Rice was suppose to be elite this March . They were no shows
@@bernardriggs2079 The only no show that I saw was Haley Van Lith.
Im a LSU fan, but they played a awesome game, and Lil Shorty can ball, she's the one that kept them in the game,good luck next year bruins
The refs game LSU that game......once again
@@user-lb7ef2qi9mstart of the game phantom call for ucla...
Only dumb ass people who cant take an L blame the refs, refs had nothing to do with UCLA losing to LSU
@@user-lb7ef2qi9mCan you elaborate? Your comment doesn't make sense
@@jonathanyoung9369 gave! Figure it out!
I know you lost at the end but you played a great game! You are all a great team with a great coach!!
Cori Closes staff or player said something to angel in the line.. You can see two LSU staff members heard it as well.. The one in green moved to diffuse the situation and keep angel/line moving…
I saw that too. Coach Crutchfield buffered . It was just chippy at the end.
Reading Angel's lips she told the coach to watch your mouth
No one should be surprised that players taunt/jaw at each other in womens basketball.. Some are just better at not getting caught while doing it..😂
Angel Reese comes from Baltimore. Sportsmanship is not in her DNA. This girl is just not a good optic for young kids coming up. IMO, she is despicable and hope that Caitlin Clark beats them tomorrow night.
@@kekeintheholethe coach in this instance was the aggressor, not Angel! Stop twisting your narrative!
Reporters so sicknenn. Why yall making them girls say what they think of LSU right na ? 😂
Messy 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I can’t stand the question they asked
So ridiculous
Facts over feelings ❄️
Angel said the team did a good job of helping her guard Betts..why these reporters try to start ish at every turn?
Facts
They had to ask those questions, it’s their job. It’s on camera that Angela is as mouthing off to one of the coaches shaking hands and the UCLA head coach was talking to refs about taunting. It would be weird if reporters didn’t ask
@@moregardening5014shut up …mouthing off ? You clearly never played basketball
How do you know what Angel was saying? We’re you there! It was reported by Mulkey that she wished them a great game! You are no better than the reporters! This coach is a 💩stirrer and a sore loser! We’ve watched lots of film on them! Beyond the NCAA, these girls have played together and know each other! Best of luck to these Seniors and be gone coach!
They're energy demons they feed off negativity.
These reporters are messy
Yeah the reporter lied on Angel. Angel didn’t say anything bad about the UCLA coach. She said “Next Question”
Because they don’t suck up to your viewpoint?
@@Yuuzas_Eino because they are lying
A few minutes doesn’t define anyone. These girls, on all these teams, are so much more than one win or one loss. All that matters is that we respond, learn, help each other with the next challenge.
Asking those girls about the LSU program was a trash question.
UCLA is a great team! Not everyone can win. Don't be so hard on yourself coach! You will build the program from what you learn from this experience! Hold your head high!!
Cori Close is a real stand-up coach- not blaming officiating- just really standing behind this loss- am sure the Bruins will be here next year
She would be out her damn mind to blame the people that were helping her the whole game
The refs game LSU that game......once again
@@user-lb7ef2qi9mcan you elaborate? I've never heard a sentence crafted that way before?
@@ibelieve96LMBO
UCLA guards killed them . Coach did not have her guards ready
I'm a LSU fan and you guys are a great team with a great coach. Best of luck with your seniors and players futures. You guys made history this year and your contributions to this game will be remembered and respected and part of the bigger family. 🫂♥️💖💖🌬️🐻🐻🐻🐻💪🏿🙌🏾
not the gaslighting saying angel heard something “mistakingly” when two of LSU staff heard it as well.
I love coaches that don’t make excuses! This girl is about that and it’s refreshing
Good game ladies, you all have great team, from Coaches to Players. Hold your heads high.
These reporters are so messyyy
Yess they are.
Reporter, you misrepresented what Angel said after being asked a loaded question that would have created beef against the UCLA coach. She clearly said that this coach just said "good game", that someone else said something.
UCLA is a damn good team. Coach Cori, you did well although the close out worked out in the way of LSU. Kudos to London and Betts. It was a good game.
LSU fan 💜 but Great job UCLA!
Thanks for the entertainment both teams was fun to watch
Lauren Betts seems like such a nice person as well. Hope they're back next year
Coach wanted an easier bracket. Cry me a river! The bracket should not be a problem if they are the better team.
I just want to say that UCLA should not be complaining about the officiating at all. Their best player committed over the foul limit midway in the 3rd qtr. The lady official whistle only worked against LSU the entire 1st half. And Coach Close seemed to be begging for the official to make a call that did not have any effect on the game being played on the floor. To go through the line at the end of the game like she did was petty. Maybe your players going 7-32 on 3pts played a big part? If Kim Mulkey did that, how would the conversation be framed?
I agree, the lady official called calls against LSU that were questionable. The second half she didn't blow her whistle at all
I really expected more out of UCLA guards today especially Rice and Osborne . I predicted LSU would win but their guards was way way off , LSU has a superior athletes like SC .
Why the reporters being messy for?
Messy and noisy
That was a good game
UCLA is a good team. Play hard. That’s what you want Effort. Better team won.
Exactly. Better TEAM WON.
The refs game LSU that game......once again
Just like you absolutely did not repost that article. You either are not telling the truth or you don’t know your staff as well as you think you do. If you are all that you say you are, you will find out what was said.
Refs have been making horrible calls in ALL GAMES on ALL TEAMS in BOTH WOMEN & MEN games 🏀
hope the Bruins are back next year- these players can play ball!
The refs game LSU that game......once again
@@user-lb7ef2qi9m LSU has led the NCAA in free throw attempts all season. UCLA shot 30 three pointers. That’s not going to cut it.
It seems to me if you are good enough to make the team you are never a loser.😊
Betts voice deep as hell
Transgender
Wow her hormones are kinda out of wack.
ong😭😭😭 sound like a man
I was about to comment on the same thing. No disrespect to her, but at first, I thought that was a man talking.
I was thinking the same. I bet she got some fire…nvm
ESPN reporter only asked controversial type questions in LSU presser and similar here. Petty and not supportive of great women’s basketball. These two teams played a fierce and entertaining game!
Can’t complain about officiating. Against NCAA rules for coaches.
Londynn Jones is a Real one you can tell she frm Cali! Much love frm Texas!
Is this the same woman that reposted hateful commenn't about our LSU STUDENT ATHLETES🤔
Other coach i think angel did want to name her to start another haters reel
Good game Bruins, 60-60, could have gone either way, keep heads up, played great game!
Perfect coach
"We'll be back." 💜💛💜💛
They couldve did more to get Betts that ball on the block. She's pissed about that but she's being a great team player. Their guard kept jacking 3s despite them bricking them .
Great game for both teams
I really don’t like this coach’s energy. I understand they lost, but the energy is very negative and LSU gave them so much credit but like always LSU is the problem
She is trash..posting something without reading it. Trash
Even the reporter is asking all questions about angel reese this is crazy they really hate angel 😂😂😂😂she a winner thats why ya mad 🤣💯💯
Angle is disrespectful and need to be taught manners
Nah. Angel just doing too much. I watch LSU and Angel always running her mouth, putting up an L or waving bye, bye to someone. Its just gets old. You think the teams drafting her will take notice. I think so. She is already upset she is not the 2nd or 3rd player going to be taken.
@floydthreat5531 and yes caitlin clark and Camren brick both were caught on footage by espn cussing out refs that's classless but ya call it passion because they white when angel does it it's clueless ya pick and choose who ya want to hate 🤣🤣🤣🤣💯💯it's sad and a complete double standard
@@floydthreat5531 You do know that the L is for LSU right? Many of the students do it.
@@floydthreat5531if a man did what you're talking about you wouldn't say anything. Because this young lady plays the way she plays most people, including you have nothing to say. Get out your feelings
I’m a lsu fan but londynn is adorable. Good luck next year babygirl to you and your team
GG UCLA hopefully see you next year
Very classy coach. Great game by UCLA.
helluva coach in Cori Close here, I know right now it hurts, but they have a lot to be proud of
Good game UCLA! Good coach and team. Go Tigers
I really like her as a coach. Geaux Tigers!
UCLA seemed to forget that they have Lauren Betts on their team. They shot way too many 3 pointers(32), when they should have been working harder at getting it inside to Betts. Also, since LSU has almost no bench, why didn't Kiki and Charisma drive the lane more often to try to pick up fouls and get LSU in foul trouble? UCLA's not one of the best 3 point shooting teams, so I don't know what they were thinking.
Ke Ke Rice is a damn good point guard too. I could imagine how great LSU would be with a point guard like her.
Im LSU fan but man UCLA look solid
Yo LSU DID HAVE A LEAD THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN UP BY MORE THAN 7 at the half. UCLA coach YALL lost to a better talented team.
I don’t see how y’all keep saying yall like Cori Close and she takes accountability. When asked about angel she said her team was CLASSY. When asked about officiating NO COMMENT. Are we watching the same interview?
Reporters give them a break!
UCLA played better than they ever have
coach Cori Close is so right- the media is so vital for the exponential growth of women's basketball
The refs game LSU that game......once again
@@user-lb7ef2qi9m blah, blah, blah!
I wish the officials had let the teams play. Fouls were very ticky tacky. Great game girls. You make this sport great.
This was a great game. UCLA played great. Kudos to you guys. LSU all the way babies! Go Tigers!!!💜💛
These reporters should be ashamed of themselves for asking these stupid messy azz Questions to these Kids.
I agree.
LSU fan that just started watching women’s basketball after last year’s phenomenal event. However, just became a big fan of these two young ladies and will be pulling for them in the future.
The women’s game has grow and has more star power than ever.
However, the LOW IW play that I’ve witnessed across the board in this round is mind.boggling
UCLA shot 4 times as many 4’d and ZRefusrf to give Betts the ball and force shots almost warrants a point shaving investigation
Saw the same kind of stuff in the Indians and SC game
Too man blow outs will cause this type of dumb play.
Coaches have to do better in these situation.
I
As a basketball fan, I couldn’t enjoy watching a team switch up their game plan so easily and then to watch other players force their way on to the stage playing hero ball.
Dad….
Close good game. Johnson was clutch down the final stretch
This couch should be fired for her actions ....Honestly said Ucla
❤Women college basketball
I hate press conferences because if you notice they read there answers off a cue card there answers are prewritten they make it look this watch I mean what should I think
I’m pretty sure they’re just looking at the stat sheet there would be no reason for them to have cue cards for answers when they are media trained like that doesn’t make sense
Man I was hoping to see PAC 12 OSU, USC, UCLA IN FINAL 4
Lol. PAC12 is in the rearview mirror. Long live the Big Ten.
we'll be back too lol
It's ok girl you are amazing use this loss as a spring board to come back and kick their butts not their a--
Sweetie Welcome to the SEC!! Get tough and get out your feelings!! Londynn Seems like a real nigga get the vibe COACH!!
Excellent coach! I will pull for UCLA from now on
Coach, nice of you to take the blame but you didn't lose that game unless you told them not to put their hand in their face outside the 3 point line. The girls just looked at them like they had any other choice. They are just as good as LSU but LSU got the last uncontested shot.
Betts voice is deeper than what i thought it would be. She is a beautiful woman tho, when she lets her hair down.
She has a very deep voice. Wow, not taking nothing from Lauren. I just never heard her speaking..
Extra height will do that to you. I was also surprised initially but then remembered she's 6 foot 7.
Could be that she's kind of hoarse from raising her voice on the court. Londynn Jones sounds a little hoarse as well
Jones there was NO universe where it was okay for you to shoot that much!!!
it was just us sounding like a boy lol
This GM is nothing compared to what Mon against Iowa gonna be like,cuz I'm a LSU fan but I fear they gonna hav they hands full trying to keep up with CC.cuz once Iowa go up 5 pts they run away with it n I hope LSU don't let them do that cuz this isn't the same championship team for last yr plus Iowa wants revenge
These reporters are MESSY
Where are the quality questions about their skills.
Lauren remind me of Brittany griner as far as her voice it's very deep this the first time I heard her speak
Cori, keep it classy. Stay off social media.
Lmao the reporters are messy ! They make yall say what yall be thinking fr !
they seem salty. Probably shouldn't interview kids. LSU beat them, credit a good team.
i'm really disappointed in them, UCLA had all the momentum going into this game,
where was Angela and Emily Bessoir? oh yeah not getting enough minutes SMH cori close, you got OUTCOACHED.
LSU won the championship last year, they know how to win.
You got beat! It’s Ok
We talked about Angel lashes she toned it down ! Now this girl can’t even open her eyes those are a bit to much
How many times has this “great” team been to the elite eight?
Last time I checked “Coaches” don’t play the game.
UCLA is the better team 1-12, they just didn't execute. That is sports. I'll take UCLA's best day over LSU's best day anytime.
Big 4 did her thing. Angel wears the crown so they trying break her down.
Tiger 🪤
Don’t you mean tampon tigers in honor of Reeves?

@@user-lb7ef2qi9mdid you watch the game or what? The 1st half the lady ref made bad calls and all of the calls were against LSU.
@@adsanford7248 the black bald ref was rigging it in the crucial moments of the second half in favor of LSU
athletes need to stop saying “at the end of the day” it’s extremely overused saying.
What should they say instead?
At what point did it become overused? When was the last time it was regularly used? Curious minds, here. Please, educate us.
Horrible question for student athletes
Bye bye now 😂😢
Lsu always send them home crying off the loss 🤣💯💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛iowa your next 💯🤣
They are such a disrespectful team .they hurt to see LSU act and play like they do ...THEY DIRTY
UCLA mad 😂
Coach says defensive stops and scoring but LSU has them greyhounds Thorobreds horses so that athleticism and toughness won out in the end. That’s them dawgs!!!!!
Cori...bye.....
Is it Lauren’s height that make her sound that way? She got A LOT of base in her voice… Hmmmmmm🤔🤔🤔
Lame take dude

Game tied late. LSU ball. Angel Reese drives and falls down without being touched. Foul called. Ball game.
