Ole Miss's Coach Yo shows why she is the most wholesome coach in the SEC

There was more drama to Ole Miss vs. LSU women's basketball than just the online beef between Coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin and Lane Kiffin.

The on-field intensity was off the charts at SBJ Pavilion as both teams were fighting it out to keep the lead in the final quarters.

The Rebels were coming off a massive win against Tennessee, adding to their fiery desperation to pull off another one.

On the other end was Kim Mulkey's equally charged squad. However, one player in particular, freshman forward Grace Knox, was something else that night.

Coach Yo's wholesome way of dealing with Grace Knox incident

Since LSU head coach Kim Mulkey has given Knox more playing time than she might have initially imagined when the season began, she has been playing on another level, something that got to her head.

Knox's blue-collar grit backfired when she tried to block a shot during LSU's February 19 game against Ole Miss.

Knox was called for a foul on the block, but she stood over Ole Miss forward Christeen Iwuala and appeared to taunt her verbally.

This immediately triggered a technical foul. The LSU forward still seemed to calm down and keep talking even when Mulkey stepped in to send her to the bench.

Yeah, that was uncalled for. So much so that the 19-year-old later issued a public apology to Ole Miss, confessing that the heat of the moment got the best of her.

"I know I can kind of get in the moment. And I realize that hurt the team, and that really didn’t look that well for LSU, just as a school. So I did apologize to my teammates. I apologized to the coaches. Because that was never really my intention to shoot anybody down or just be seen as that kind of person all the time," Knox said in the apology.

Always the one for kind and the most heartwarming gestures, Coach Yo instantly took her side with a sweet note.

"This is high level! She was extremely respectful in the handshake line and we took none of it personally after the play. Let’s move on! These are young people ladies & gentlemen," Coach Yo tweeted on X.

McPhee-McCuin knows the difference between game and drama. She did not hesitate in putting Kiffin back in his place, so she took the first opportunity in calling it a no-harm, no-foul.
