LSU Tigers star women’s basketball player Angel Reese may be catching even more social media backlash after her latest comment regarding first lady Jill Biden’s invitation to the White House.

Biden said Monday that she wishes to invite both LSU and the Iowa Hawkeyes, who were defeated by the Tigers in Sunday’s NCAA Tournament final, 102-85.

"I know we’ll have the champions come to the White House, we always do," Biden, who was at American Airlines Center in Dallas to witness LSU's win, said in Denver on Monday via ESPN. "So, we hope LSU will come. But, you know, I’m going to tell Joe I think Iowa should come, too, because they played such a good game."

Reese quote tweeted the ESPN article with Biden’s comments, and she clearly has her opinion on both the winner and loser going to the White House.

"A JOKE," she wrote with three laughing emojis to preface the words. 

It isn’t normal for the losing team of a championship to get invited to the White House, but Biden believes that the evolution of women’s sports since Title IX was put in place in 1972 makes this occasion different.

"It was so exciting, wasn't it?" she said via ESPN. "It was such a great game. I'm old enough that I remember when we got Title IX. We fought so hard, right? We fought so hard. And look at where women's sports have come today."
