She has more eligibility? I thought she was Dunne with college.


Covid year didn't count towards their eligibility.

Jesus raptor riding Christ, you are simple as frick. You are responding to the most patient and helpful explanation to how off base you are on this discussion, and you completely missed the point.

Quite the contrary. My original point is Livvy's hypocrisy, nothing more, nothing less.

She claims to be a role model for young girls by teaching them it's lucrative to objectify women.

Do you happen to coach Stanford women’s basketball?

Her brand is pretty strong while on the LSU gymnastics team!

Have any of you all talking about the objectification of women ever looked at a Sports Illustarted Swimsuit Issue?. If so, you all are the hypocrites.

See what you fail to mention is she’s actually a super talented gymnast that would be in the lineup for most teams. The athlete this day an age would have left a long time ago but she’s obviously really loves LSU which I don’t understand why you frickers continue to bash her.

People forget she's very smart:


Wow. That’s awesome. I didn’t know she was such a good student. With some of our other former “student athletes” who are in the headlines nearly every day, it’s nice to see that not all of them are morons with 1.9 GPA’s and don’t take a free education for granted.

Conducts herself with class too. For some of our athletes I previously alluded to, that’s just too much to ask, unfortunately.

I mean she is a role model in quite a few ways. Good gymnast, excels academically, business savvy, hard work ethic, school pride, helps out her teammates financially by getting them endorsements. Who cares if part of it is sticking her but out in some of her Tik Toks.

Would you seriously be mad/shun your daughter if they became millionaires while being student athletes just because she posted videos in yoga pants and bikinis? You just sound like a bitter old man who wouldn't want his daughter to be successful unless it's in a way that also makes him happy. You think Livy Dunne's dad is holding his head down or embarrassed around his buddies? Hell no, probably a proud dad.

. She became an influencer in 2019 when she was posting on TikTok. She already had over 1MM followers going into her senior year of high school (or whatever the homeschool equivalent of that is). She was incredibly popular with young girls for the gymnastics shite she posted.

So a father of 2 girls with some weird obsession with her. Out of 97 posts in this thread you have 14 of them.

Sugar coat this situation however you want, but posting pictures of your arse for money/attention on the internet is not ‘class’

It is what it is

I don’t have daughters, but no, I would NOT be okay with this

You’re acting like she’s promoting an OnlyFans. She definitely shows some skin, but I don’t see that as any different from when Megyn Kelly took that pic in her underwear. It’s not a black or white thing. She markets herself as more of a model, not a prostitute / whore.

Also, there are waaaaaay more elements to being classy than just “whether or not they post bikini pictures.”

Olivia in interviews and sportsmanship, and just overall behavior off the “field” or whatever they call it in gymnastics, that’s a standard that not all of the other “student athletes” find very easy to follow, even though it’s extremely easy. Also, it’s extremely easy to not get a 1.8.
