ESPN’s Monica McNutt Just Made the WORST Caitlin Clark Take Yet | Don't @ Me w/ Dan Dakich
ESPN host Monica McNutt is under EXTREME heat after claiming Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark needs to show more "accountability and self-awareness."
While last week's SEC Media Days saw plenty of coaches putting themselves in the spotlight with a litany of quotes, one coach from the Southeastern Conference rose above the rest.
Florida's Jon Sumrall made quite a name for himself in Tampa last week during his inaugural spin as a head coach in the SEC, creating a bit of a stink on social media with his comments regarding a reporter's cell phone going off.
Sumrall apparently wasn't done hogging the limelight, though this time it was his wife generating the headlines when she dropped the bombshell that one of the toughest coaches in the conference loves getting pedicures.

The internet once again reacted in kind, with fans and media members arguing both sides of the issue.
Some saw no problem with a man taking care of his feet - especially feet that used to play linebacker in the SEC - while others said the revelation that Sumrall gets his toes worked on pokes holes in his "tough guy act."
A few fans even suggested his wife was in the wrong for airing out his dirty laundry (and clean feet) and giving his rivals ammo to use against him.
One man who isn't necessarily a rival coach is ESPN analyst and former NFL quarterback Dan Orlovsky.
Orlovsky was asked about "Pedicuregate" on the show "Get Up" Tuesday morning, and the ex-Detroit Lion did not mince words.
"I have never gotten a pedicure, and I never will," said Orlovsky. "I am completely against pedicures for dudes."

Sumrall is pretty clearly a dude, so it sounds like Orlovsky is against the new Gators head coach getting a pedicure.

Orlovsky was roundly mocked by all of his co-hosts on "Get Up" during the segment, but that was nothing compared to what fans on X had in store for him.
One subset of fans - both Florida and otherwise - correctly pointed out that Orlovsky calling a guy out for getting pedicures while he wears makeup on the set of a TV show feels a tad bit hypocritical.
Another subset of fans took things on a bit more of a personal route, and brought up Orlovsky's very infamous trip out of the back of the end zone during the 2008 NFL season (a season in which the Lions notoriously completed an 0-16 campaign).
I also have to say, it is relieving that fans of teams other than the Florida Gators are hopping to Jon Sumrall's defense.
I thought I was going to have to defend this take as a massive Gator homer like that one scene in "Game of Thrones" where Jon Snow has to take on hundreds of soldiers all by himself in The Battle of the Bastards.

In all seriousness, I'm not a pedicure guy. I really don't like strangers touching me in general so that rules out massages, too.
But I am in no way going to shame a man for getting his feet taken care of.

Manicures, though? That's a different story.
I have to draw the line somewhere.
