Andy Fales just spent 24 minutes on a Missouri Valley game and a Caitlyn Clark lovefest win over a crap team. Zero mention of ISU women who came back from 19 down in the second half against a ranked team.

Is Murph not on today?

Probably didn't know they even played last night -- not joking

First hour no mention....what a joke.
I’ll admit I’m a 100% jealous Iowa State fan, but I hate getting fed the defensive media line that it’s raising the profile of WBB yet the only media WBB coverage is of 1 team and basically 1 player.

That said, damn she keeps on delivering every night.

Take that line out and you would be correct.

Just was going to post this. Don’t think our game was mentioned at all during the show. Didn’t catch the entire two hours though.

It is a bit frustrating that ISU women beating a ranked team that had only lost 1 game and they had to come from behind to do it too barely gets much time and takes a backseat to Clark beating a mediocre team by 25 and gets another triple double well after the game was already decided. I'm not rooting for this to happen but if she were to get injured late in a blowout game because they left her in to get another triple double does the media question the decision/logic of leaving your star player in blowout games during garbage time just to pad some of her stats?

Clark is really "upping the profile of the game", but evidently not enough for Murphy and Fales to spend a single minute on the biggest win of the year by the other P6 team in the state.

Miller and Condon went on their usual day-after-game rant about ISU fans not exalting Clark enough, then immediately transitioned to trashing Brock. :D You can’t make this **** up.

With what Clark did last night I'm not even tuning into Murph and Andy. Sure they will barely mention Crooks 29 points last night.

Anybody trashing Brock at this point, cannot be taken seriously. They are nothing more that ISU haters and don't understand journalistic integrity. If you are going to trash Purdy, you better have some irrefutable facts backing up your argument. Miller and Condon don't possess such intelligence.

We, as Iowa State fans, are frustrated by the lack of coverage for our teams, but can you imagine how the Drake or UNI fans feel about the amount of coverage they get from our local media?

I just don't understand the mentality behind their approach to all this. Sure, give CC her due in one segment. But then move on in another segment about Crooks, then move on and talk about Drake in the next segment, etc.

And on top of it…. Crooks and Purdy are 2 athletes you could teach your children to emulate on the court too. Crooks has the greatest personality of any ISU athlete I can remember…. just great! But that means nothing.

Slow down have you already forgot about NIang?

Sorry I know Clark is a national phenomenon not seen since Lebron, but in Ohio anyway no one even knew she was playing a game last night. So what did she do?

Women’s basketball is so hot right now that I had to scroll down past “Equestrian” on the CbS app to get scores, and the box score is just a quarter by quarter score breakdown with no individual player stats.

Iowa must be the only state in the nation that has media that would rip on a guy with local connections who is doing great things nationally.
