    11 days ago

    Caitlin Clark and Cooper DeJean have taken their talents from the Iowa Hawkeyes to the professional leagues.

    Clark was drafted first overall in the 2024 WNBA draft by the Indiana Fever while DeJean was taken 40th overall by the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2024 NFL draft.

    A few weeks ago, DeJean went viral online and received a lot of backlash for his comments regarding Caitlin Clark. He said he believed he could beat Clark one-on-one in basketball. Fans did not agree with him and thought DeJean was taking shots at Clark.

    Fast forward a few weeks later, DeJean revealed on the Up & Adams Show that Clark recently fired back at him via text message.

    "She took a shot back at me after. She texted me and said that she doesn't think I can beat her," DeJean said, "I'll let her say that. I think it would be fun though if we got to play each other."

    The full clip was posted online to social media.

    DeJean proceeded to say he believes he could still beat her. You have to respect the confidence, but let's be real Cooper, you wouldn't be able to.
