The First Lady is walking back her suggestion both LSU and runner-up Iowa go to the White House. The LSU Tigers claimed their first women's national title on Sunday, beating the Hawkeyes, and Jill Biden said both teams should come to the White House. LSU star Angel Reese called Biden's suggestion "a joke," later adding "We'll go to the Obamas." Even with the First Lady rescinding her invite to Iowa, LSU players remain split on whether to go.
Angel Reese talked of Biden's comments during her Wednesday appearance on "The Paper Route Podcast,"
"I'm not going to lie to you, I don't accept the apology because of, you said what you said. I said what I said. And like, you can't go back on certain things that you say," Reese told podcast hosts Brandon Marshall and Ashley Nicole Moss.
"I mean, you felt like they should've came because of sportsmanship, right?" Reese added. "They can have that spotlight. We'll go to the Obamas. We'll see Michelle. We'll see Barack."
"If we were to lose, we would not be getting invited to the White House," she added. "I remember she made a comment about both teams should be invited because of sportsmanship. And I'm like, 'Are you saying that because of what I did?' Stuff like that, it bothers me because you are a woman at the end of the day. White, Black, it doesn't matter, you're a woman, you're supposed to be standing behind us before anything."
