Caitlin Clark

This probably says something about us as a society but Caitlin Clark isn't even close to being the most popular college athlete. AFAIK, the current title holder is LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne whose NIL value is over $3.5 million. By comparison, Caitlin Clark's NIL value is around $800k.
That doesnt equate to popularity. It equates to marketability. Not the same thing.

Sex sells. Clark isnt "sexy" (to most) and Dunne is.

I don't disagree that Dunne has higher marks because she is a smoke show while Clark is mid, but by every metric of popularity, Dunne has higher marks. ...because she is hot ...because our society puts a higher value on how hot a girl is than how well a girl can play basketball. You can condemn society but you can't back up your claims of Clark being more popular to our society than is Dunne. Olivia Dunne is objectively (pun intended) more popular than Caitlin Clark.

by that metric, Caitlyn Clark ranks below COVID in popularity.

Caitlyn Clark had a moment, and she had another one when Sheryl Swoopes said she was overrated, and then Caitlyn Clark got mentioned again when Sheryl Swoopes insisted that her earlier overrated claims weren't due to Sheryl Swoopes being racist because Black people can't be racist. Controversy, especially controversy with a racial aspect, drives the metrics you posted but it doesn't result in popularity.

Sound mad cuz you wrong bro. I know you got right wing narratives to uphold.

But yes, if the only metric you want to use is who pictures get looked at more, then Dunne is super popular.
 
And if you think the Sheryl Swoops stuff is what is driving all the Clark talk youre crazy as hell. I'm a hoops nut and I didn't even know that was a thing.
