The rookie is one of the most popular athletes in the United States and will go down as an all-time great for the Lady Tigers, having led them to a national title last year. However, a Washington Post article (H/T USA Today) revealed that Reese fought a teammate in front of visiting recruits, and LSU head coach Kim Mulkey covered it up. asx
According to reporter Kent Babb, one of his sources witnessed the altercation, and it led to a meeting in which players were not allowed to have their cell phones.
“This [meeting] was after a fight involving Angel Reese, witnessed by one of my sources, that occurred in front of visiting recruits,” Babb noted, although he never published an article on Mulkey as intended after she threatened legal action.
“One of these individuals present in the team meeting shared that Mulkey said: ‘This entire locker room is trash.’”
The Report Of Angel Reese’s Fight At LSU Remains Unconfirmed
Other publications have been unable to confirm a fight or a meeting, but the Post has said it “stands by Kent Babb and his reporting.”
The incident and the meeting it prompted are believed to have occurred in 2022, before Angel Reese rose to popularity by beating Iowa in the national championship game in 2023.
Reese has since moved up to the WNBA while Mulkey remains LSU head coach and still has players on her roster who won the title last year.
We expect more on this in the coming days, but Reese and LSU have so far declined to comment.
