Could NCAA Women's basketball over take NCAA men's basketball?

Here’s today’s fun fact. Of course, the leading cause was nobody really cared if SDSU was there, much less UCONN. When the rubber meets the road when a G5 crashes a championship game, the vast bulk of the viewers will be only from the two participants.

ALWAYS follow the money.

Its equivelant to a UL football game, you can't expect crowds witbout promotion year round.

In this case that's what happens to interest, when you Pimp the 5 all year and don't promote anything else.

Can't expect interest in a game that you spent zero time all year promoting the participants.

I think the WNBA is trying to capitalize on a Clark-Reese rivalry like Johnson-Bird was in order to give the league a jolt like the NBA got

The demographics that drive television markets would prefer watching these two play pickleball instead of any WNBA or NCAA WBB player

Someone said earlier that WBB is very top heavy. That can't be emphasized enough as many people don't realize how severe that problem is . There is a huge dropoff after the top 10 teams in America to the next level. You can't build the sport until that changes. Otherwise no one pays attention until the Final 4.

Great point.

There’s UCONN, ND, usually about 3 SEC teams, Baylor, TOSU, Iowa, Stanford. The winner usually comes from half that bunch.

Louisville, Miami, Texas, UCLA, Ole Miss and a few of the “you’re telling me there’s a chance” crowd.

After that forget it.

If anyone thinks WBB is a great draw, explain why the first rounds are hosted on campus by the highest seed? Easy, not enough interest.
