Look man, I don't follow Ladies College Basketball ffs - there's only so much you can watch even with my lack of sleep........but just curious if anybody follows her here - she's something with those 3 Pointers ..........a lot of fun to watch.........even in a loss  That hype train for this game and that getting knocked to the ground post game was ........something anyway......... |

My current favorite womens basketball player (I dont watch much except a few games with her) but not my favorite womens player overall.
Allie Batenhorst (Nebraska) and Sophia Smith rules.
With female players you gotta take into account looks and talent and that's what Sophia and Allie has over her.

Averaging 30 PPG with close to a triple double a game in 40 minute college basketball games is nuts. Also pretty hot (her abs!) I would be her basketball groupie.

If early Princess Diaries era Anne Hathaway put her hair back in a big pony tail and got arms I could see it.

Was she actually that bad? I've been in pick up games with guys like that where they can't hit the rim to save their life and you eventually stop guarding them but I find it hard to believe someone playing D1 basketball wouldn't be able to hit a shot that wide open at least some of the time.

pacinoyes, do you feel Iowa can win the National Title this year?
This girl seems like the greatest women's basketball player of all time, but it's gonna be everything but the chip unless she pulls this off.
I've seen like 2 games all year in general, and never one from start to finish..... so I don't know about the competition. (Is that big girl last year still on the team???? What to do about size for Iowa????). I hope she can pull this off - because I don't like Dawn Staley.... just ultimate smug face. Worst representation of a sport. I like Messi. I like Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes. I find Djokovic dominant at least. Rapinoe is at least a good player even if she is an atrocious social media activist. But with Dawn Staley, I just question is she actually that good, or it's just her competition sucks and no one cares about women's basketball.

But with Dawn Staley, I just question is she actually that good, or it's just her competition sucks and no one cares about women's basketball.* Well, I dunno about winning a team title because I have never watched a wonen's basketball game WITHOUT Caitlin Clark playing in it- .................................and I say that with great sexist pride ..............but I will say that she is one of those athletes who is just cool .......like a cool female athlete that I can watch? Yes, please......more.....thank you....I love tennis but I can only watch Iga Swiatek EVERY time ......not because she's sexy (though she kinda is), just because she's cool and good..........
* I think Caitlin Clark is sort of like Connor McDavid - who has his own thread on MAR (started by me, of course) - who some people on here call the GOAT of Ice Hockey - and he damn sure is fncking not ..........not all-time ffs, and not until he wins 1 (or 2) titles which he "may" do this year........doubtful though *There just are not many cool female athletes for me to follow.............. I mean what am I supposed to follow that fncking quitter Ash Barty because she was "good" but not as good as Iga or Sabalenka and Barty's done anyway? This is just a joke (I like Barty too!) aimed at mhynson27 who has NEVER said 1 thing about Djokovic being the GOAT - say it bitch! - AND he had the balls to give his negative opinion that plastic surgery has messed up Kay Adams Goddess-like face when it most certainly has not! - and Kay Adams - whose whole sex apeal is BASED ON BEING COOL - would have to be hacked with a fucking axe not to be a million times cooler AND hotter than Ash Barty - and that picture below is what she looks like right now dammit anyway ffs.......so you know, so many people say so many things........and I guess maybe Staley is a little jealous maybe?   |

Where I live - a rich, exclusively white section of Valhalla - that you would never, ever be allowed to enter (that was all a joke ffs) my local bar is having Caitlin Clark night - tonight - showing the Iowa-Maryland game (on Fox)......get into it you dumbassess - she only has a few more games to go before she's banished to the Siberia of the Sports World (the WNBA, shudder ) Let's gooooooooooooooooooooooooo..........  |

So has anyone been encouraged to learn about her from this thread?
She was great last night and she missed a lot of shots, an easy ending lay-up, she was goofy, funny, sweet, brilliant at times and her passing is just insanely good.......get into it MAR, come on ffs

I saw her in the final four last year. More a fan of her arms than anything else but might check her out in the tournament again or if she's in the WNBA finals or something one day. Hard to get jazzed for the Indiana Fever vs the Detroit Shock or whoever in the WNBA though.

Also interesting is the team in Phoenix could have the no. 1 pick next year which means she'd be playing with Taurasi for probably the first year or two of her career. Maybe the equivalent of if LeBron had ended up with Jordan on the Wizards as a rookie.

Jordan had retired already when Lebron was a rookie. |

I feel like I could post Tayor Swift stuff in like 4 different threads right now - but the Taylor Swift - Caitlin Clark overlap is real ...... and they are friends or something or have met or heard of each other......  |

Girls really dig Enchanted. I've heard groups of girls vibe to that song in clubs and in the back of the car. it's their go-to TayTay tune. CC seems too cool for the common female athlete, pacinoyes. She's on the Olivia Dunne, Sophia Smith, Alex Morgan, and Emma Raducanu level coolness - relatable girls with sweet personalities. Team Hawkeye against Dawn Staley. I'm watching. I guess you are too.... in 2 months time  |
