Jemele Hill is just one of the many sports analysts who have received backlash for comments about WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark.
However, her comments didn’t necessarily bash Clark; they were more about how the media covers black women in sports than white athletes.
“Caitlin Clark seems to be a great personality, but it is not like Caitlin Clark is walking around saying crazy stuff,” Hill told Uproxx. “They’re just covering her excellence, and that’s good enough. Whereas it feels like for Black athletes to get the same amount of coverage or even fair coverage, there has to be something extra.”
However, Hill has now exposed a new reason to hate on Clark; this time, it isn’t even for anything basketball-related.
Recently, a video of Clark playing basketball was posted, where she nearly gets a hole-in-one.
Hill quote-tweeted the post, saying, “I finally found a reason to hate Caitlin Clark—she’s got a smooth swing and is an excellent golfer. This is simply unfair. Let me go shoot my 110.”
Of course, it was all just a friendly joke, and given how many people have been covering Clark and the WNBA this season, it’s nice to see this kind of stuff.
Jemele Hill Commented On Jerry Jones Threatening To Fire Radio Host
After the Cowboys’ horrible loss to the Detroit Lions, owner Jerry Jones appeared on 10.5 The Fan and questioned the team’s lack of spending in the offseason.
Jones got extremely defensive and threatened to fire the radio host, even doubling down on it to ensure everyone knew he was serious.
He then received a ton of hate for it, and Hill also threw in her opinions about the situation, saying, “Somebody is SALTY,”

Umar Nurmagomedov is here to carry forward his uncle’s legacy. Creating a strong case for himself after going undefeated in the UFC, Nurmagomedov now stands on the brink of history. After just six matches in the promotion, he will be facing Merab Dvalishvili for a bantamweight title fight. And while the fight with Dvalishvili is expected to be tough for Umar, the 29-year-old is utterly confident about becoming the champion.
What’s more? Nurmagomedov is also sure that he will not be incurring a lot of injuries in his UFC 311 title fight. Trying to fight as many times as possible, the Dagestani fighter made a bold claim of predicting a three-match schedule for 2025.
“Whoever wins this fight, I think O’Malley is next. [O’Malley] wants Merab to win, not because of a rematch, he thinks Merab gonna be more easy than me… I will fight 3 times in this year. Perfect for me is June and October,” said Nurmagomedov in an interaction with MMA Junkie.
Meanwhile, building up to the big fight on January 11, 2025, both Umar and Merab are strengthening their cheering team. While the legendary Khabib Nurmagomedov returns to his cousin’s corner, Merab Dvalishvili could very well pull off a stunner.
Merab Dvalishvili Might Rope In Best Friend To Negate Khabib And Umar Nurmagomedov Threat
Umar Nurmagomedov made it official that his uncle Khabib would be cheering for him when he battles for the title. This could be a significant mental boost for the Dagestani, as having a legend like Khabib will make him fine-tune his skills further. But Merab Dvalishvili is not lagging behind, either. He might have the UFC featherweight champion, Ilia Topuria, turn up in his corner!
