What happened: The criticism followed DiJonai Carrington’s Flagrant 2 foul on Sophie Cunningham during last week’s Fever-Sky game. White accused an online community of creating narratives that do not exist.

Why it matters: The dispute shifts scrutiny from Carrington’s ejection to White’s handling of the aftermath. It also puts the coach’s relationship with her players under public examination.

What to watch: White and Cunningham’s next public comments could determine whether the controversy follows Indiana beyond its next game.
