Basketball coach Dawn Staley expressed support for Shane Beamer after the South Carolina football coach apologized.
He received backlash for his behavior, which he said was a heated reaction as his team was going for a fourth-down conversion. He said in his apology that he didn't know about the tribute to the athletes.
"I hope people know me well enough to know what an advocate I am for women's sports," Beamer said."I've got two daughters of my own that play sports. I'm at as many women's athletic events here at Carolina as I possibly can be, because I believe them and support them. Anyone who thinks otherwise surely doesn't know me."
