They using CC to steal the deal


NBA fans reacted to Caitlin Clark linking up with Kager Knueppel after he visited the Butler Bulldogs before deciding on his college commitment. Kager is the younger brother of Charlotte Hornets’ sensational rookie, Kon Knueppel.

A picture that surfaced on social media featured Kager and his family posing with the Indiana Fever star, who wore a pair of black leggings and a blue sweatshirt. Clark’s boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, is an assistant coach with the Bulldogs, which left the fans wondering if the team was using a WNBA star to recruit Kager.

Reacting to the post, a fan blatantly called out the Bulldogs for their recruiting tactics.

“They using CC to steal the deal 🤣.”

A fan noted how the Bulldogs had pulled the biggest factor to recruit a high prospect.

“Butler pulling out all the recruiting stops .. 😊.”

One of the fans called Caitlin Clark the GOAT.

“🐐recruiting >>”

“And @CaitlinClark22 just casually has on a Butler sweatshirt and is giving a tour 🤔. I’d die and go to heaven right there-I adore her.”

A fan was intrigued with Clark’s presence on Kager’s visit, but was sure that Kager would play for Duke, just like his older brother.

“What’s @CaitlinClark22 doing at Butler? I’m sure it’s a great place, but #theBrotherhood is where he belongs!!!”

A fan was okay with Butler pulling the biggest card to recruit Kager.

“I’m good with that.”

@ButlerGuru I’m good with that.

Caitlin Clark Attends Butler Game With Indiana Fever New Addition

Caitlin Clark attended the Butler Bulldogs game earlier this week. One of the notable names also in attendance was Rob Dosier, who was recently hired by the Indiana Fever as the player development coach.

A picture surfaced on social media featuring Clark and Dosier sitting beside each other during the game against the Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles on Wednesday at Hinkle Fieldhouse. Clark wore a white hoodie, and Dosier wore a brown hoodie as they watched the game.

One of the primary reasons that the Fever hired Dosier was to help players stay healthy through the season, and perhaps the Fever really needed a coach of such caliber more than any team in the league.

This season, Indiana has had five of its players ruled out of the season with injuries. As Caitlin Clark continues to rehab her groin injury, Dosier training her could eventually work best for her. Watching them together, it is apparent that they are already linking up to keep Clark healthy.
