I have an unimportant question.  Why do people on this site refer to the woman's players by their first name and the men by their last name? Just a thought. The women's team has made themselves much more open to the community. I have seen people going up to the women's players in public a lot, I've been guilty of it. I have not seen it happen to the male players. Do the men do a eight minute mingle after their games? I really don't know, I stopped watching the men's game a long time ago. |

I think the woman tend to engage more with the fans because they feel less entitled and are actively trying to grow the popularity of their game. I have heard a number of woman players say it is important for them to be role models for young girls. I have noticed at both OSU and Oregon games that often after home games the team will come out on the court to thank the fans by waving and clapping. This probably happens across the country. It is refreshing. |

It is refreshing. I once heard a woman's college basketball coach who had coached men in the past asked why he preferred coaching woman. He said the woman tend to be very good students, so you don't have to worry about how they are doing in the classroom and that there tends to be less "turds" (as he put it) in the woman's game. |
