Kim Mulkey causes SEC Tournament drama over mozzarella sticks

If you're eating mozzarella sticks near Kim Markie, spin your head.

“Is it the media over there or just eating?” Markie asked as she kicked off her part. Post-match press conference Following the semi-finals of the 3-seeded LSU women's basketball SEC tournament in second in Greenville, South Carolina at the Wellness Arena

One of the media members in question was Lulukesin from Greenville News, which covers South Carolina soccer and women's basketball.

Kesin was not interested in Mulkey's press conference. Because the Gamecocks she was there to cover was not involved in the post-match presser.

“I was out for sidelights as I sat far away from the press conference and saw Kim Markey take a bite of my mozzarella stick.” Keshin posted on x.

Keshin also attached a photo Showing how far she was from the reporter's scrum there, we ask Markey, assistant coach Bob Starkey and player Mikayla Williams.

Still, Mulkey sniffed out the Mozzarella Sticks and made comments by singling reporters who may be relaxing in the midst of the mixed chaos that comes with covering conference tournaments.

Given her smirk as she questioned Keshin, Markie might have made a lighthearted statement about her trying to get some smiles from everyone in the room after her team's 56-49 defeat.

But in Malky's history with media — she threatened to sue her profile in the Washington Post last year — Keshin finds the comments a bit sleazy, and it makes sense that it's quite clear that the rest of the media in the area are taking a break while sitting in designated spaces.

This loss marked the end of the Marquis and the Tigers' SEC tournament run, with South Carolina beating the Longhorns in the conference title championship game.

Mulkey and LSU finished season 28-5 with a 12-4 meeting record and finished a project that is in the 3-seed range of the NCAA Tournament.

The brackets will be released on Sunday.
