Since the WNBA’s season kickoff in May, BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock has been sounding the alarm that Indiana Fever superstar and the GOAT of women’s basketball, Caitlin Clark, is in deep trouble — not because of anything she did, but because her own team is actively orchestrating her downfall.
Whitlock has warned that if something doesn’t change, Clark’s stardom will prematurely fade. At this point, he sees only one option: leave.
“Caitlin Clark has to demand a trade right now, immediately. It’s the only way to fix this Indiana Fever situation,” he argues on a recent episode of “Fearless.”
Clark, he argues, “can’t trust anyone” involved with Indian Fever, and that includes: head coach Stephanie White, assistant coaches Briann January and Karima Christmas-Kelly, general manager Amber Cox, team president Kelly Krauskopf, the players, and even her own agent, Erin Kane.
“Caitlin Clark needs a whole new team, from agent on down to team on down. Caitlin Clark has to take this situation by her own hands, with her own hands, and correct this. If she doesn’t, this thing will drag out, and she will be destroyed,” Whitlock warns.
Since the Indiana Fever is unlikely to oust Clark and thus become “bad guys” and “idiots,” his solution is simple: Clark’s dad should orchestrate her transfer to the L.A. Sparks.
“She needs her father to step up and assist her in putting together a whole new team from top to bottom,” he says.
The first order of business, he says, is to fire Kane.
“[Get] rid of … the power agent, Erin Kane, who can’t be on her side,” he says, calling Kane “a hardcore political feminist activist.”
Step two, Whitlock says, is to get out of Indiana, where the team is structured in a way that prevents Clark from self-actualizing.
“She’s standing in a circle of people that cannot support her. Look at her teammates. What organization would put four former South Carolina players on the same roster as Caitlin Clark? Those are Dawn Staley soldiers!” he exclaims.
For years, Whitlock has characterized Staley as a symbol of the woke, DEI-driven women’s basketball establishment that he believes is hostile to Clark’s rise.
“Who surrounds Caitlin Clark with Dawn Staley soldiers, knowing how Dawn Staley felt about Iowa, about Lisa Bluder, and Caitlin Clark?” he asks, alluding to Staley’s long-standing resentment toward Iowa, her bitter 2023 Final Four loss to Bluder’s Hawkeyes, and her recent insistence that Clark is ‘criticizable’ despite public praise.
“Caitlin Clark has to woman up and tell the world, ‘I want out of Indiana. I want out of this cesspool of deceit and destruction and chaos and dysfunction,”’ he comments.
