What did Schrager have to say?

Schrager recalled the moment from 2022 when he was at the NFL Combine and, coincidentally, Iowa's Women's basketball team was staying at the same hotel. The Women's Big 10 Tournament and the Combine were scheduled around the same time.

According to Schrager, the Sports Information Director of the Iowa team introduced the two. "You know our star player Caitlin, she's a die-hard Chiefs fan, she loves Mahomes." He further mentioned that the SID put him on a text chain with Clark.

The reporter sent her best wishes and afterward added her to a text conversation with Kansas City Chiefs general manager Brett Veach.

Schrager remarked: "I eventually put her on a text chain with Brett Veach, the general manager of the Chiefs. We're on a text chain, the three of us, before every one of these Iowa games. Veach and I are texting Caitlin Clark, who's now the biggest sports star in the world, good luck today and she's like, THANKS GUYS!"
