Recently, Dunne faced backlash over her response to a Super Bowl interview question, with social media users mocking her answer regarding her college coursework.
During an interview at Super Bowl LIX at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Dunne was asked a seemingly simple question: "What's the hardest class you're taking in college right now?"
Dunne, who is in her fifth year at LSU due to extended NCAA eligibility rules, hesitated briefly before responding: "Oh man, I'm taking two classes, ummmm, both in technology management."
The Goal

The interviewer then inquired why she was taking only two courses, prompting Dunne to explain that she had already completed her bachelor's degree in interdisciplinary studies. However, to remain eligible for competition in her final NCAA season, she needed to take additional credits.
"I need to take them to be eligible to compete," she clarified. When asked about her long-term academic plans, Dunne added: "I'm working on my master's... Hopefully, I get it done ASAP—within a year, that's the goal."
Social Media Reactions

Despite her logical reasoning, many social media users were quick to ridicule her response.
Instead of accepting her explanation, critics took to social media to mock her delivery. One user wrote: "She was SCRAMBLING to find an answer."
Another commented: "Girl is fried, and she ain't taking any of those classes herself. Omg. String together a sentence challenge failed."
Some even referenced her recent online debates about gymnastics scoring, with one post reading: "She used all her brain cells to argue about giving perfect 10s for more viewers."
Despite the online criticism, Dunne continues to focus on her gymnastics career, social media empire, and academic pursuits, proving that she remains a force to be reckoned with both on and off the mat.
