Jealous of the Paige Bueckers hype! I get it! UConn WCBB receives enormous exposure compared to the other 354 DI WCBB Teams! I appreciate when lesser known teams in some of the less powerful conferences get some favorable press! It's good for WCBB and can help grow the game!
Last week Paige told Geno that she was surprised at some of the anti-UConn social media vomit and it seemed to bother her! Sometimes the whiner / complainer / annoyed party is a reporter or WCBB 'promoter'! Earlier today I saw a really telling Tweet from "hoopism" which is a part of " Womens Hoops World" (WHW) and headed by Sue Favor. I've noticed over the past couple of years some of what I perceive to be bias against UConn on that site, but I've kept it to myself and I still recognize the good reporting they often do!! I've noticed a distinct Caitlin Clark bias on their part recently and Clark is really an amazing basketball talent!
Here's the Tweet they sent out a few hours ago complaining about the AP hyping Paige Bueckers and asking for the complete list of All American Athletes:
If WHW had taken the time to click the hyperlink, they'd have seen the list they were crying about? BIAS can blind a person and it appears to have done so here?
BTW.....I actually agree with Sue Favor that Caitlin Clark should have been 1st Team AA and I'd have put Dana Evans on my 2nd Team! No need to blame Paige who received more votes than anyone else!!! Both Paige and Caitlin do more for their respective teams than does Evans, but ........
