Clark vs Ash is a stupid and pointless argument that doesn't need to happen and generally comes from people looking to diminish Clark's accomplishments. CC is doing things NO ONE else - male or female - is doing in college basketball and things that very few players EVER have done. Make of that whatever you want. I'd recommend people just relax and enjoy the show because it's really fucking cool.

Flip the script. How many minutes would Caitlin Clark play on Iowa's men's basketball team?
Well, it would be hard for her to get any minutes when she wouldn't be good enough to make the men's team so I guess 0.

I think it's insulting to Clark because it's unnecessary, she is excellent at the sport she plays. However unfortunately the argument here is perpetuated by someone who is trying to do so in support of her.

I'm not sure why it's insulting. I would think that being so good that the discussion to even compare her to a male basketball player is quite the accomplishment. I am in no way diminishing what she's done. It's remarkable and I respect her game. She's doing things that most of us have never seen. To even throw her name in the "could she play in the men's game" conversation is impressive if you ask me. Silly, but impressive.

"It's a compliment to think of Caitlin as the 13th player off the Iowa bench."

Every time my wife, relatives, or colleagues tell me that I am impossibly immature, I feel bad about myself for 3 seconds and then remind myself that I did not participate in eagle chat.

Is one of the Hawks named Mike? Because I would let Laura handle Mike Hawk.

It is obvious that Clete has been a troll from the start. A shitty one but everyone keeps responding to him so I guess it is working.
