Dawn Staley’s very good dog Champ adorably crashed her March Madness press conference

During Saturday’s press availability, South Carolina women’s basketball coach Dawn Staley brought a special friend with her to the table.

Staley’s dog Champ joined her as she took questions from reporters and joked that the dog wouldn’t answering any questions from the press until the NCAA gave the very good boy a proper name plate.

This dog is very adorable and deserves many treats and belly rubs, even if the poor little guy does look tired from all the March Madness festivities.

If you see Champ during this year’s tournament as he cheers on Staley and South Carolina, make sure to tell him he’s the bestest boy in basketball.

Even if South Carolina doesn’t go all the way this spring, the team will at least know that Champ is in its corner. That’s a pretty good thing to have during March Madness.

Also, NCAA, we hope to see Champ’s name plate at the press table the next time he and Staley make an appearance!
