I don't disagree, but watchability/marketability for basketball is all about star power.
The reason women's college basketball has been popular the last 2 years is because Clark and Reese are legit, recognizable stars. The added drama between them only made it better.
I've had a couple of female friends who wouldn't watch sports if you paid them, but they saw the South Carolina/LSU debacle on TikTok along with Kim Mulkey talking shite and now it's all they talk about and want to watch.
You need big personalities, stars and rivalry/drama.
The above is why men's college basketball outside of March Madness isn't all that popular either. Most people can't name one elite player, let alone multiple players in the men's league. Which probably leads into a conversation about the 1 and done rule, but that's another discussion.
The biggest issue women's sports has is women don't generally support it. .

100% fact.
Not watching, not buying merch, not going to the games, etc...
