???Moe likely Shea Ralph.

They did. Stewie was awarded the 2013-14 POY during the 2014 FF (both ND and UConn were undefeated and getting ready to play each other in the NC game the next day). Muffet had been stumping for Kayla McBride for POY. The presentation was made in a small room with basically only the UConn and ND teams present. When Stewie was announced, Muffet sat on her hands and didn’t clap, and her whole team followed suit. The silence was deafening.Words fail me.
Did Stewie & Muffet have some kind of a run in somewhere? I don't understand MM's dislike of Stewie.
Not true. She didn't want UConn.
No way either of those things happened, or will ever happen. Regarding the teammates, so be it. At least one of them deserves it anyway, and the rest chose ND so they get what they get.I have been with the Boneyard for 3 years, and I don't remember a topic that got this much coverage. I hope that MM personally contacted Geno & apologized. I hope that AO personally contacted CD and apologized. If those two acts didn't happen, then I find these ND tweets empty. The sad part about this is that the ND teammates of AO get brushed with the same unsportsmanlike brush.
One additional point. MM was asked about it and publicly indicated her disappointment that McBride did not win the award.They did.

I will say that Natalie Achonwa, who was in a leg cast from her recently-torn ACL and was sitiing in a chair Geno had given up for her as she hobbled in late, did indeed applaud.

Her comments set Geno off and he then responded publicly and angrily before the press. It was a year before they buried the hatchet. Now it appears we are at it again.

Skylar Diggins, wasn’t it?They did. Stewie was awarded the 2013-14 POY during the 2014 FF (both ND and UConn were undefeated and getting ready to play each other in the NC game the next day). Muffet had been stumping for Kayla McBride for POY.
Skylar was at ND 2009-13. Pretty sure this ‘no clap’ event was April 2014 and KMac was Muffy’s POY candidateSkylar Diggins, wasn’t it?
As I’ve said in the past, a person in the room said McGraw did clap but it was a brief golf clap
!@HUSKYNUT-now this is a post I can agree with. Beating a very good ND team on their very difficult to play on HOME Court is as good as it gets.
*['m sorry for this but Muffet would be foolish to suspend AO unless forced to do so.
AO is about 80 percent of her offense. If she wants to win Muffet has to dance with the girl that brung her, like it or not. If mean one meaningless game, why?

Hey are you trying to spoil our urban legend?Not true, five people clapping in this picture. Ivey on the left, Lindsay Allen(?) obscured by Muffet head, Whitney Holloway, Michaela Mabrey, and Maddie Cable.
Muffet, her Husband, and Beth Cunningham didn't clap. The rest are either clapping or not in the picture.

ok, but you don't count !At least Muffet is acknowledging it, so we know it won't happen again. Good enough for me.
Glad all of this is happening. In the end, no one was hurt and it keeps the rivalry hot. That probably makes me a caveman, but so be it. Real sports hatred is a good thing. As long as no one gets hurt.
Our Ladies are built for this.
Would certainly benefit us (and maybe them) to play regularly. We're not hopeless in football.UConn football needs to defeat Marist or their equal before pretending to take on the big dudes and actually be a DI football program.

Was this taking from the "grassy knoll"?![]()

Don't forget unknown individual at the end of the bench (or "the Grassy Knoll", as it were) who is looking at Muffet and keeping her hands at down.Not true, five people clapping in this picture.
