Not all that long at all. LSU was pretty salty when we beat them in the SEC semi two yrs ago. Esp when our players did the mock Angel dance that had been her go to taunt all that year.

This is all much ado about nothing. Likely outcome is just that the already shaky reputation of Cote took a hit that will give coaches pause if she hits the portal.

…just seems like forever. Good point, though.

Cotie McMahon spent the entire game with a look of hostility on her face. Built like a fullback, she tried to bully the Lady Vols by running over them, but they were having none of that. After the loss, instead of shaking Coach Kim's hand, she slapped it rather hard and said a curse word as she went past. Kim even stopped and gave her a long stare as McMahon walked away. What poor sportsmanship and what a crude, thuggish act. I'd expect more from what purports to be a top tier, first class university.

I guess you don't remember their renowned football coach Woody Hayes - - . This attituded goes back a long time.

It might not be a popular opinion, but I don't think there should be a mandatory handshake line. The winner won and the loser lost. Having a handshake line directly after the game just provides an opportunity for confrontation. Also, provides an easy target for someone who wants a confrontation.

If players want to congratulate each other, then go ahead, but there should not be an expectation that everyone should do this.

Has an athlete ever said, "I was gonna fight them, but they shook my hand in the line, so I decided against it".

It's just a forced formality with no purpose, outside of giving those that want issues a place to have issues.

Agree. If you want to seek someone out to shake hands then fine.... But the mandatory line is just asking for trouble, IMO.

Classy. Of course, I could have you confused with someone else. Have tou been ringing up a lot of complaining posts in the softball thread? Have you been saying our softball players are not SEC caliber? Do you absolutely loathe the coaches? If thats you, I stand by my post. If not, let me extend my apology.

I never say bad things about players, NEVER!

Just have the coaches shake hands in one spot while the team captains shake hands elsewhere.

Or let the team managers snap wet towels at their opposing counterparts. Or have a Gatorade Super soaker battle with the mop guys.

Speaking of handshake lines, just saw where an 81-year-old girls' h.s. coach got fired for yanking the ponytail of his star player and snapping her head back. He claimed the player uttered an expletive toward him when he demanded that she get into the handshake line after they had been defeated. A teammate got between him and the target of his wrath. He later apologized to her and the school and acknowledged that there was no excuse for putting his hands on a player.

Interesting video of the incident.

Or expect and demand your players understand and adhere to being good winners and good losers. One of those pesky adulting things.

That is fair but the double standard of all this moral outrage gets me. In this case, we had a fleeting incident of a player being "bad loser" and it gets turned into a scandal where the thug epithet is freely used.

But, only a few weeks ago, the USA-Canada hockey game began with not one but three brawls and there was no moral panic, no pearl clutching about the children but instead celebrations of the great competitive spirit being shown!!

Sad, that. Karma is waiting to settle up with that young player.

Totally different sport and mentality of fans. They feel cheated if only one fight breaks out.
