they try to put the cart before the horse. become a local star first, then gain national interest with a good tournament run.
They should at least make it to the final four

And specifically the competitive back n forth with AngelClark coverage from the people who don't follow women's basketball didn't ramp up until the Tournament run in 2023

Thing is those rounds before that game were getting crazy viewers. It just took it to another level.And specifically the competitive back n forth with Angel

Yea the Elite 8 game against Louisville was the highest rated Elite 8 game on ESPN ever and then the Final 4 against South Carolina was the highest rated women's Final Four of all time, of course the championship against LSU on ABC on a Sunday afternoon was gonna set a record after they took down an undefeated SC team that was on a crazy win streak. The people who weren't paying attention before that were gonna have their curiosity piqued after that SC game.Thing is those rounds before that game were getting crazy viewers.

UConn vs Ohio State was a Saturday afternoon game on ABC so I'm not sure where you're quoting "highest rated espn game" from. The fact that Iowa outdrew a national brand name while tipping off after 9pmEST on a Sunday night while playing on cable vs broadcast TV shows who was drawing the eyeballs
THE UCONN SWEET 16 GAME
THE NIGHT BEFORE DID 2.41M
AND WAS THE "HIGHEST RATED ESPN GAME EVER" BEFORE IOWA
DID 2.5 THE NEXT DAY.
WOMEN'S BALL WAS CLEARLY
TRENDING UPWARD ON ITS ON
BEFORE THE CASUAL RACISTS
JOINED IN

She need to get healthy mf been hurt like a whole year smh
in what world is Juju not being covered by the media? I can't recall another wbb player being covered this much and with as much exposure through their sophomore year, the only who could even be in the conversation through 2 years is Paige and the women's game is way bigger now compared to then. Hell I'd argue Juju got even more juice than Cooper Flagg and Cooper is a white boy playing at Duke.
