Iowa women's basketball tickets sold out again

[Beattheohiostate]

The Caitlin Clark mystique continues. Iowa has announced a sellout for women's basketball again this season. Clearly, such a thing never would have happened without Clark bringing people to the Hawkeye women's game in the first place. So CC may be gone, but she clearly has not been forgotten. She has left a legacy in Iowa City that, given appropriate stewardship, should keep Iowa in the upper echelon of women's basketball for a long, long time.

Clark has put women's basketball on the map, at both the college and pro levels, in ways that were unimaginable until she came along.

And now that Clark's team is out of the WNBA playoffs, I can ignore that league until Clark takes the floor again next spring. But I am looking forward to another exciting women's basketball season in Iowa City, something I never said before Caitlin Clark showed up.

Very nice recruiting tool. Go get them coach.

Agree with the OP. It's not that I'm not looking forward to the men's season but I'm more excited to watch the women's team.

I never thought that would be the case for me.

Some think Olsen is a Clark replacement, not happening. Lots of points to make up from last year throughout the team. Really don’t know if Jan is an offense 1st coach or a coach who wants to play defense. IMO, Iowa will need some strong defensive games to finish in the top of the league.

Jan is an offensive coach, but Raina is more defensive and will have a bigger role. I expect to see the team morph to play to the strengths. I also expect to see a much stronger post performance.
