Not if they market it right to the sports betters. You've got a whole nother set of humans to watch the games now It was the cute thing to do for the last two weeks, where were they for the other 32 games during the year. Good luck trying to get people to care for an entire season. Very simple solution: make people watch. For example, For every 3 men’s games you watch you have to watch 3 women’s games. I think this is fair and reasonable in the pursuit of equity. Revenues should be split equally as well.

Well I think you are overlooking the amount of women who want to watch women's sports. That's why it's overtaking the men's game which has gotten boring with the diluted talent and unrecognizable players whining about money all the time. At least now we got a new coach who can hopefully change my mind, as long as they tell me what the final season ticket price will be so I can make my deposit.

At the highest level, the women's games are pretty good. Mid-major women's games are markedly slower and less exciting IMO.

Papi, you know I’m kidding, right? I figured that a person of your mindset would be very happy with my suggestion.

If Iowa got knocked out the numbers would have been normal. I even watched a few games. I like that the girls gave up the last minute and both sides conceded. I bet SC to win between 10-13 points at +475.

Mid-major women's games are markedly slower and less exciting IMO. here is the thing currently though with the women's game in college.........the top 4-5 elite programs absolutely destroy all the others, and I mean even when a top ranked team plays another team in their top 25, they are constantly blowouts.........thus the parity is not yet evolved in the women's as it has in the men's games...........

True statement… and will continue… look at South Carolina … loses all 5 starters from last year’s Final Four … reloads & wins national championship this year … it does not mean you can’t enjoy league interplay of lower conferences

LSU and SC are different than Iowa. No way Iowa is a top 20 team next year. They'll be okay, but def wont be challenging for a NC like the last 2 years.

Which is why those saying Clark isn’t the GOAT because she didn’t win a championship is crazy. What she did with the limited talent around her was incredible. You can talk about all the UCONN women and all their championships but put the same women around them that Clark had and they aren’t winning any titles either.

Remind me what all of this has to do with Javian Mccollum?!

Tony, think it’s time to move half of this thread to something else, I do not see how the last three pages have anything to do with Javion!!!
It’s morphed into to a NIL and women’s basketball thread!!!
Neither of which have anything to do with Javion moving on.
