A review on gender inequity found that the NCAA has undervalued and underfunded women's basketball for years — even so far as providing women's teams with less effective COVID tests and poorer quality food.

Truth is, there is not much interest in women's basketball among sports fans, so not much in ticket sales or tv revenue. Football and the NCAA mens basketball tournament pay for college athletics.

nobody’s really surprised that’s the way it is. And when the story fades that’s the way it will be.

NCAA doesn’t care but if you’re worried about men urinating in a woman’s restroom then the NCAA has your back. LOL

No one goes to the games!

Who watches this stuff? Should men get more money for home economics?

WTFBULLETIN Nobody watches women's basketball or talks about it, EVER.

Man, I thought this was something we figured out last year with sedonaprince_ …?

Jeez!

*shocked*

Not surprised at all

When the women’s teams can play on the same courts against the MBA teams, and win, they will be valued. Until they can do that, they have little value and deserve to be treated as such.

You don’t say 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

Say what you want about government and you will most likely be right, but the government on its worst day comes nowhere near to the corruption and outright greed of the NCAA.

Color me surprised.

Sheesh!!!

You'll be invested in when you prove people think you're worth it.

It took them all this time to find this out?

Women getting lesser glory is a universal reality. It's in the Church, Hollywood, politics, families, you name it. Men *need* women to be second class citizens -- to affirm themselves.

Just because the men’s basketball team brings in millions and millions of dollars more then women’s doesn’t mean they should be skimped on food and covid testing. Only unvaccinated people should be treated like that...or so says.

Just found?

It took a review to figure this out? Literally anybody over the last 30 years could have told you this. The fans care, the NCAA doesn't. And that's the real problem.

How does it compare to viewership ratings? Y'all ought to know by now the only thing that matters is if anyone wants to watch.

thanks

NPR please stop spreading COVID misinformation. wamu885 DCist It is exactly because of these people, that everyone else need to get their shots!!! wamu885 DCist If big pharma and first world nations really wanted to impress l, they would have released the patent protection on Covid vaccines. Third world nations would have been able to cheaply and quickly vaccinate their populations. Perhaps the delta variant could have been avoided
