Fans are coming for LSU Tigers guard Hailey Van Lith amid Saturday’s struggles against No. 2 UCLA.
It’s been tough out there for the Louisville transfer who is just 1-of-6 from the field today (including 50% from the free throw line) with three points, three assists and a pair of steals well into the second half.
The Washington-born senior was thought to be a huge pick-up for Kim Mulkey’s team going into the year but her production has dropped off quite a bit since arriving in Baton Rouge.
Here’s a taste of what folks had to say on social media about her performance thus far:
“I’d bench Haley Van Lith if I’m LSU,” a user tweeted. “She ain’t doin [expletive] out there.”
“Hailey Van Lith is like the 6th best player on LSU. What an epic mistake from her,” another said.
“Haley Van Lith this what you came to LSU for! Takeover please.”
“Haley Van Lith been a cone for them all tournament,” a fan laughed.
“Hailey Van Lith should have stayed at Louisville because LSU just hasn’t been the right fit at all for her.”
“Hailey Van Lith is probably one of the worst transfer portal decisions I’ve witnessed so far!” another person commented.
“Hailey Van Lith genuinely ruined her college career by transferring to LSU.”
The Tigers find themselves in a tight game down the stretch. LSU and UCLA are tied with just under seven minutes to go in the fourth quarter.
Hopefully Van Lith can turn things around and give her team some timely baskets as LSU eyes another Elite 8 bid.
