Paige Bueckers and co. brought UCONN’s women basketball to its first March Madness win in almost a decade. After tearful celebrations, Coach Geno Auriemma shared some choice words for the NCAA. Something to the tune of “you don’t care about student athletes”, especially the women.
In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover:
- The $2.8 billion NCAA settlement that’ll potentially fund Caroline’s wedding
- The one thing connecting Geno Auriemma and Caroline’s mom (mama mia!)
- Who told Caitlin Clark she’ll have to earn her spot on a roster, just like the rest of us
- Bill Belichick’s three-quarters-of-a-life crisis ft. his recent photo op with Lil Wayne
- What Jason Kelce would rather endure for a whole season than give birth
- The first-ever Women’s College All-Star Combine (plus WNBA Draft preview)
- Bonus: our “Queen of the Week” shoutout to listener Whitney, who says the show helps her bond with her (mostly boy) students
