Caitlin Clark’s boyfriend Connor McCaffery can’t get his head on straight and enters a downward spiral that could have unexpected consequences.
Butler have struggled in Big East play this year.

Caitlin Clark and Connor McCaffery
While Caitlin Clark’s popularity continues to take her to new highs in the basketball world, boyfriend Connor McCaffery isn’t experiencing the same success.
The Butler Bulldogs, the team which McCaffery serves as an assistant coach for, fell to their eighth consecutive defeat on Wednesday night, losing a 84-65 contest to Providence.
Adding to the disappointment is the fact the defeat was their fifth straight in Big East action. It also moves them one step closer to their all-time losing streak of 12 games which was set back in the 1980-01 season.
The defeat means Butler now sit with DePaul as the only Big East team yet to secure a conference win this season, and their last victory overall came back on December 3 against Eastern Illinois.
With a game against Creighton coming up this weekend, Butler’s losing streak will likely continue on a little longer, though upcoming games against Seton Hall and DePaul gives them an opportunity to end their torrid run.
Frustrated fans beginning to lose patience
It’s no surprise that Butler fans are beginning to become frustrated with how this season is playing out.
While the play of Jahmyl Telfort has been a bright spot, supporters have voiced their frustrations with most of the team and Thad Matta’s coaching staff.

During the recent defeat against Providence, Telfort was forced to leave the game with a back injury in the first half, and despite several opportunities to cut into the lead, the came up short.
Some have pointed to Caitlin Clark’s earlier influence as a lucky charm no longer being in play anymore. She was spotted at Carnesecca Arena for the game against St. John’s while wearing a Butler cap, but that wasn’t enough to stop the Bulldogs from falling 70-62
