Skip Bayless and Rachel Nichols explain why Caitlin Clark doesn't stack up in their 'G.O.A.T' rankings, but her influence on and off the court is unmatched in their eyes.
Caitlin Clark's monumental college basketball career is over, with one notable thing still missing from her résumé. Clark and her Iowa Hawkeyes fell in the national championship game Sunday to a juggernaut South Carolina team that became the first undefeated national champion since 2016. Clark still leaves the collegiate ranks with numerous records, led by her 3,951 career points that shattered the all-time NCAA Division I scoring mark for both men's and women's basketball.
' Skip Bayless agreed, pointing out that this would have been less of a debate had Iowa not caught some lucky breaks in previous rounds of the NCAA tournament, including LSU star Angel Reese dealing with an ankle injury in the Elite Eight and a controversial offensive foul call against UConn in the closing seconds of Iowa's two-point Final Four win. He also believes Iowa's supporting cast around Clark was ultimately not good enough to keep up with the best team in the country.
