BLOOMINGTON — Wherever Caitlin Clark goes, large crowds follow.
Some big names attended the Hawkeye women’s basketball game at Indiana on Thursday night, including WWE legend Mick Foley and NBA player Victor Oladipo.
Foley, who has three wrestling alter egos named Mankind, Cactus Jack, and Dude Love, had no shame in repping some Clark gear at Assembly Hall. Oladipo, a former All-American guard at Indiana who most recently competed for the Miami Heat and averaged 16.9 points per game, got to see his alma mater win in dominating fashion. Mark Shapiro, who graduated from the University of Iowa and is now president of Endeavor, was also at the game.

Wearing the home red over that hideous jersey is such a a troll by hometown Bloomington native Hoosier Mick Foley.

Caitlin Clark and the Hawkeyes had trouble focusing tonight. And who can blame them with Mick Foley, Cactus Jack, Dude Love and Mankind all in attendance?

Victor Oladipo on the big screen. Maybe he has eligibility for Mike Woodson?
