I’ve no reason to doubt Mulkey’s explanation and tend to think this particular situation has been overblown.

On the flip side of the coin, fairly or unfairly this recent iteration of the Lady Tigers didn’t imprint themselves on the larger national conscience as necessarily classy winners.

For some of them to act like they feel victimized now probably reinforces a lot of the negative perceptions that likely had most of the country being happy to see them sent home.
