Yes. She is racist but she has the trifecta of being a woman, gay, and black so we aren't supposed to be able to criticize her. Which makes me dislike her more.

I don’t like her, but have to respect her as a coach. She gets it done.

Love her or hate her, she is the best at fielding a very talented team in the most competitive conferences in the country year after year.

I'm not a fan of Dawn, but this is another situation where, if she was our coach, we'd love her.

Considering she's a blatant, unapologetic racist, I would say she is one of the worst.

But due to her demographic, she is a media darling and gets bonus points for spreading hate toward the demographic the media hates.

I think Bill Belichick deserves a mention as a very unlikable coach.

Tough to make an argument that a coach in a largely irrelevant sport could be up for most hated in all of sports

Lsu fans can hate on Dawn all you want to but don't forget she owns Mulkey and your tigers.

I'll give you that, but considering that LSU owns y'all in practically every other sport, I'll take it.

Yes. She gets to openly run her mouth and be endeared for idioticy that is easily disproven, but the media isnt about to allow counterpoints to da culchas victimization insistency. She gets to be an ignorant racist on the mic, make money from it, get the pick of da afleets who buy her shill, and pretend shes oppressed. What a life. What a life.
When you talk and act like this, you prove everything she says right.

I don’t really follow women’s hoops, so pardon my ignorance. What racist stuff has she said? I always kinda thought I liked her but am no fan of racists.
