The habit gets a new name.
Taylor Pannell’s transfer to Texas Tech is still a sore spot for Tennessee coach Karen Weekly. The two had a tense exchange after a game, with Pannell claiming Weekly took a swipe at her decision to leave. Weekly denies it, but the drama is still simmering. Pannell’s family had already blasted the Volunteers on their way out the door. Now, it’s a juicy storyline at the Women’s College World Series.
The “mistake” comment is just a nice way of saying “you should’ve stayed.” Weekly’s denial is just a nice way of saying “I’m still salty.” The real question is, what’s the protocol for post-game shade?
