We are now in a time where women’s hoops are (arguably) outshining men’s hoops on a daily basis. If the WNBA can get more recognition women’s hoops can continue to be in the mix for yrs to come. And I believe it’ll be jump started by Caitlin going to the Indiana Fever. 💯
Women's college basketball has always been my favorite! Playing them also in rec games are always adventurous! Its something about seeing them play and playing with them for fun.
Flau'jae gonna be the biggest star tonight.
Paige gone show yall if it wasn't for that acl she be up there with Caitlyn
South Carolina, even with recent struggles is best team by far.....
It's great Stephen A highlighted how despite LSU winning the chip, SC's dominance, and other star players you only hear about Caitlin Clark. But let's be real, ESPN is the main reason that's the case. Hopefully that changes.

Juju is the nicest women’s player I’ve ever seen. She’s only a freshmen as well. I’m looking forward to watching these games tonight. May all of the women playing .. play their best and put on a show !
Ive been really watching womens basketball this tournament and its such a different game than the mens. They atheletism is so different. The women dont play about the rim, but they really dont play above the net. The tall girls get a couple inches off the floor to make lay ups. The gaurds are fun too watch though. Im not haiting, its just an observation, but the story lines are good
Stephen A is absolutely right

As someone who wants nothing but the best for the women’s college basketball and the wnba to succeed I’m so scared that the people in charge of the marketing promo and advertisement in the wnba are gonna mess up and kill the hype behind these girls as they enter the league to get people to actually watch the wnba. Like please hire professionals or young people that know how to garner these new fans attention

Rooting hard for USC to win it all… love JuJu! I think LSU will win tonight.
Juju!!! She’s my fav. Like her overall game the most and just a freshman
Clark gets more attention b/c w/o her IA would be at best a 0.500 team. They are going to mediocre next year once she leaves. There is not a single person on IA that is a WNBA prospect now or in the future. IA is the only team playing tonight that is like that. All the other teams have multiple people that will be drafted in the WNBA. Thus, Clark has way more constant pressure, she can not have an off night. Even if she is on, IA still have not great odds beating any top 10 team. She has to score 30 pts or more, dish 8+ assists & play essentially 40 mins for them to even have a chance.
Flau'Jae make em remember ur namee
Lift up these young black women as well.
That number 69 can drop dramatically... Yes, yes it can...

She's averaging 31.7 PTS on 46% shooting for the season and 29.3 PTS on 46% shooting for this tournament alone. Both stats best out of all women. If your only argument is that she is not better than the men, your are HATING HARD on her success as an athlete, regardless of gender.

Don’t compare men and women’s sports. It isn’t even close to the same. You want them to say hey lebron scored the most points in nba or wnba …no they would never do that…Caitlin Clark wouldn’t even warm the bench in ncaa mens league. Not an insult it’s a reality it’s a different league.
