In Shawn Poppie’s eyes, the sport he’s immersed himself in continues to grow.
There’s an unprecedented momentum in the world of women’s basketball. The rivalry between Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark gave the sport storylines for a nation to jump right into.
From there, the sport has seen its highest numbers in every category imaginable. As a head coach in that very sport, Poppie certainly understood that. Maybe he saw it coming.
He believes that kind of momentum created a domino effect that landed him at Clemson. Now, the university that hired him hopes his resume creates a different kind of buzz for the Tigers.
