Unbelievable! but then, not really. How has anyone thought that was fair all this time? Who is getting that money now?
THIS!!!
The NCAA is a dinosaur. The Power 5 Conferences will soon break off into their own sphere and leave the Indianapolis based organization wondering what happened. Things like the lack of any pay-off for the Womens Tournament and the example of the extremely poor exercise facilities at the Womens Final Four as two recent head-scratchers.
It’s hard to believe that in 2024 there is still such an enormous gap between men’s and women’s sports. Not in terms of fan base, because the fans are certainly there for women’s sports. But in terms of financial equality, it’s night and day. It’s way past time for this gap to end.
Marianne G.
Remember, payouts are based on ratings. It has been only
recently that women’s sports have been gaining
large numbers of fans and viewers.
There’s a reason why the WNBA has struggled even
after teams folding.
Hopefully, this will change now that power players such
as Catlin Clark, Angel Reese, and others have emerged.
