South Carolina coach Dawn Staley hits back at NFL great Warren Sapp over Eagles outfit

Dawn Staley is sticking by the birds.

The South Carolina women’s basketball coach sported a Michael Vick Eagles’ throwback jersey by Mitchell and Ness during the Gamecocks’ 98-36 win against Kentucky on Monday and got called out by Hall of Fame defensive tackle Warren Sapp.

Staley, who’s a Philadelphia native and a diehard Eagles fan, rocked the Kelly Green jersey before Philadelphia’s 32-9 wild-card loss to the Buccaneers that night in Tampa.

“Hey @dawnstaley coach leave your fandom at Home & not court side!!” Sapp, who spent most of his 13-season career with the Buccaneers, wrote with the hashtag, “Bucs Nation.”

But Staley wouldn’t budge.

“Sure can’t. Go birds for life!” she replied.

Sure cant. Go birds for life! https://t.co/hRtqmvaC7R
