They Told Teresa Weatherspoon She'd Be a Ditch Digger. She Went and Won Olympic Gold Instead

Hall of Famer Teresa Weatherspoon tells Allie Clifton and Jordan Robinson exactly what she did with that gold medal once she won it. TSpoon opens up about growing up the baby of six with a father who still holds a Minnesota Twins minor league grand slam record, running after her parents' car her freshman year at Louisiana Tech, the mentality shift that turned her into a defensive stopper under Leon Barmore, and the day, nine years ago to the day of this recording, that she lost her mom, including the nightly question her mother taught her to ask herself before bed. She also gets real about mentoring Chennedy Carter.
