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.

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

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.



This is coded messaging that white people arent talking about Juju the way they were talking about Clark. Juju is just as dynamic, but she isnt getting the coverage that Caitlin got last year. Alot of it is because she is Black. The rest is cause she is West Coast with later games
