A football player on the Colorado Buffaloes roster might be in some trouble with Caitlin Clark’s boyfriend after shooting his shot at the Indiana Fever star with scant regard for the fact that she’s taken.

Clark, who was drafted as the No. 1 overall pick in April, is one of the most popular athletes in the United States. That was already the case while she was in college as she toppled some impressive records, including scoring the most points ever for both men’s and women’s basketball.

The guard is known to be dating former Iowa basketball player Connor McCaffery, who now works for the Indiana Pacers. They have been together for over a year and celebrated their 12-month anniversary in April.

None of that seemed to matter to a certain CU player, however, as he made a pass at Clark in a video in which he asked her to give him a call.

“We’re back with the word of the day again?” he’s heard asking the Buffs video personnel in the clip below.

“Let’s go with Fever. My girl Caitlin Clark is balling. She’s doing a great job. I look up to her and all she’s done for the sport. And if she sees this, I’m a great guy. I have the best intentions. Call me.”

Fans Were Joking About Caitlin Clark’s BF After The CU Player Shot His Shot

Of course, Connor’s name came up almost immediately.

It doesn’t appear that the player thought this one through. It’s not like Caitlin Clark would even consider calling him, so why risk it?

Still, Connor McCaffery might have a full plate right now, as he is being attacked on social media for stating his political affiliation earlier this week.

Dallas Cowboys Set The NFL On Fireworks By Dealing QB Dak Prescott To Longtime AFC Rival In Blockbuster Trade Proposal

The Dallas Cowboys kick off their 2024 NFL campaign in 15 days, and Jerry Jones still hasn’t extended quarterback Dak Prescott or wide receiver CeeDee Lamb as they head into their contract years.

Dak Prescott has one year remaining on the four-year, $160 million extension he signed with Dallas in the 2021 offseason, while the 25-year-old CeeDee Lamb is entering the fifth and final year of his rookie deal.

Some fans have started to wonder if Jones would be open to trading Prescott and Lamb. Of course, his preference is to keep both of them, but what if the Cowboys owner received an offer for his star quarterback that he can’t refuse?

The scenario seems crazy at first, but it’s not. What if Jones traded Prescott, punted on 2024 and set himself up to tank and draft a new franchise quarterback in Georgia’s Carson Beck, Texas’ Quinn Ewers or Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders next year?

One team that makes perfect sense for Dak Prescott is the Pittsburgh Steelers, who haven’t had an above-average quarterback play since Ben Roethlisberger’s last healthy season way-back-when in 2018.
