Taunting is when play is stopped, like the end of the game when it is over. Trash talking during the game goes on constantly for some players. It's taunting is when play is stopped, like the end of the game or after a whistle. That's my opinion of it, anyway. Players take on their coach's persona in a lot of ways, and Mulkey can certainly be classified as a bully. Bullies taunt. I had that impression of the LSU team prior to the VT game. My guess is Clark could not possibly care any less. That girl's future is so bright, she's, well, you know the rest.
