It appears that NCAAW is growing exponentially in popularity compared to NCAAM. Do you think within the next 5 years the 2 will be even in terms of popularity and mainstream access? A lot of men I know are more intrigued by NCAAW and Caitlyn Clark than the NCAAM games.
Will NCAAW overtake NCAAM in popularity?
From an objective standpoint, I'd ask why would it ever come close to matching the men in popularity? I know a few women that played basketball in college, one at the D-1 level & two at the D-2 level. None of them even follow women's hoops other than the Caitlyn Clark media blitz & maybe the championship games. The women's product will never rise to the level of men's game athletically, so you'll always be watching an inferior product. I'm not saying women's hoops & sports in general don't have a legitimate place at the table, but I wish people/ESPN would quit trying to shove it down our throats & stop telling us that it's more exciting or as compelling as the men's game. The only thing the women have going for them is that their game is less corrupted than men's hoops or football, but I'm sure that will change in the near future. A handful of star women players will be making millions through NIL even though less than 10% of the population will be able to tell you who the hell they are.
