Men 1 and done

Women's basketball offers a different experience compared to men's basketball. Women players stay for four years at the same school, allowing fans to witness their growth and follow their storylines. The example of Kaitlyn Clark breaking records and becoming a popular athlete illustrates this. In contrast, men's teams often have players who leave after one year, making it difficult to develop the same level of investment and connection with the players and their stories. The men are one and done, so you don't have time to see them grow into the player they are from start to finish, and you don't get to know them, the personalities, you don't have the storylines. Now, women's basketball, they stay four years. Usually most women stay at the same school they started at. So you watch Kaitlyn Clark, this incredible record be broken, the men can't do that. Why? They've already gone out, the great ones are gone. They don't stay and develop. And so that Kaitlyn Clark storyline has been going on for four years, the legend of Kaitlyn Clark, and it exploded this year. So we followed her, the record, every game it got bigger and bigger, and national news and ESPN, and suddenly she became the face of basketball, not women's basketball, men and women. She's the most popular athlete right now. South Carolina storylines, you don't get to see men's teams go undefeated. They don't stay together that long. Look at Kentucky, one and done's every year. Duke, how many guys went in the portal. So that's what makes our game special. You develop personalities, you develop storylines, and you watch them grow. And people get invested in that. People don't get invested in one year.
