Nobody wants to be the guy losing while standing next to Caitlin Clark…
Caitlin Clark isn’t just Rookie of the Year material; she’s also a supportive girlfriend who showed up in Indianapolis on Saturday to watch her boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, coach his first season as an assistant for Butler.
Despite the Bulldogs falling short in a close game against UConn (79-74–yikes, that one stings), Clark was courtside rocking a light blue Butler cap and cheering him on.

When it comes to this couple, the W/L record doesn’t matter as much as the mutual hype they give each other in NCAAB news. McCaffery backed Caitlin big time during her WNBA debut, even when she had half the internet fighting about her insane Caitlin Clark stats. Now, it’s her turn to return the favor.
Was She… Checking the Chiefs’ Score?
In peak internet fashion, someone caught Clark looking down at her phone during the game, which obviously meant one thing: she was checking the Chiefs-Texans score. As a longtime Kansas City Chiefs fan (and general sports icon), Caitlin keeping tabs on her team mid-game feels like it was inevitable. The jokes practically wrote themselves.

And honestly, same. Spoiler: the Chiefs won, which is more than we can say for Butler’s recent NCAAB games. Not to pile on, but if Connor doesn’t want this to happen again, he might want to pull out a win next time. Nobody wants to be the guy losing while standing next to Caitlin Clark–it’s just not a great look.
Despite the loss, McCaffery has to feel good about how much buzz Caitlin brought to Butler just by showing up. She’s never been shy about supporting him; just like he was there for her when she went No. 1 overall in the WNBA Draft. The dude’s lucky, let’s not sugarcoat it. But, bro, next game? Win. Not just for the program, but for your girl.

Final Takeaways
Caitlin Clark checking her phone mid-game is peak NCAAB rumors content, and honestly, it only adds to her legend. Whether she’s dominating in the WNBA or turning heads from the stands, she’s always in the spotlight. Can’t say the same for Butler’s NCAAB betting odds on Saturday. But hey, there’s always next time.
