Angel Reese had some admirers who simply just gave her the “ick.” On her latest episode of the Chicago Sky’s podcast, “Unapologetically Angel,” she revealed that she used to get nasty love letters from prisoners.
“When I was in college, somehow, some way, these men in jail used to send love letters,” Reese told her guest co-host Grammy-winning singer Coco Jones. “Somehow one of them got my mom’s address and my mom had to do all that and call the police and all that. I swear, he was talking about, ‘When I get out, I’m coming for you, imma be with you. We’re going to have kids.’ Sir, take a timeout.”
Jones weighed in on the love letters which she described the behavior as “nasty” and that they should add extra years to their prison sentences.

He continued: “We all chose each other. We yell, we fuss, we have fiery debates. WE ARE TRYING TO WIN! Don’t come to LSU if you aren’t.”
