Welcome to another episode of Sports Are Fun!
Every week on Sports Are Fun!, co-hosts soccer legend Kelley O’Hara, sports journalist Greydy Diaz, and JWS intern BJ serve up their hottest takes on the biggest women’s sports headlines.
This week, the Sports Are Fun! crew makes some room on the couch for JWS’s own social media guru, Gab Basinski. Together, the hosts then tackle a range of women’s sports subjects, including how NIL deals and the NCAA transfer portal are reshaping the college basketball landscape.
“The NCAA transfer portal closed last Wednesday, which had over 1,500 players enter,” opens O’Hara. “So many moves here, but just to highlight a few: Olivia Miles to TCU, Ta’Niya Latson to South Carolina, UCLA lost their entire freshman class, and Londynn Jones to USC, and finally, MiLaysia Fulwiley to LSU.”
“Of all DI players, almost 30% of players were in the portal,” says Basinski. “That’s insane.”
“I have so many questions and thoughts,” O’Hara says.
In addition to all those NCAA basketball thoughts, Sports Are Fun! also dives into NWSL rivalries, the crew’s growing beef with the KC Current, PWHL expansion, Caitlin Clark jersey sales, and so much more!
