Kim Mulkey’s Press Conference Takes an Unexpected Turn with Mozzarella Stick Moment
LSU head coach Kim Mulkey, known for her bold and unfiltered personality, delivered an unexpected moment during her postgame press conference after a six-point loss to Texas in the SEC Tournament semifinals.
As Mulkey prepared to speak, she noticed a small group of reporters off to the side, including South Carolina reporter Lulu Kesin from the Greenville News, who was casually enjoying a mozzarella stick. Mulkey paused, stared, and asked, “Are those media over there, or are they just eating?”

Kesin, who was seated far away from the actual press conference, was simply minding her own business and snacking, unaware that she would become part of the postgame storyline. Surprised by Mulkey’s remark, she took to social media to clarify that she was not even in the press conference room.
“For context, this is how far away I was, I was NOT sitting in the press conference eating,” Kesin tweeted, sharing a photo that showed her distance from the scene.

While Mulkey’s comment was seemingly harmless, it quickly became another memorable addition to her collection of unfiltered postgame moments. Whether she realized Kesin was a South Carolina reporter or not, one thing remains certain—Kim Mulkey’s press conferences never fail to entertain.
