I don’t think people take the time to realize that we are literally witnessing history in the making and greatness right in front of our eyes. What this young lady did for women’s basketball in the span of a year is absolutely unheard of and nothing short of LEGENDARY. I love her story and will always be rooting for her
Ditto!
She is bird
What makes you assume this tho haha
@@1ATFMedia assume what? Im not assuming anything it’s already happened
@@1ATFMediaI suppose if a person has not paid any attention whatsoever to the story of Caitlin Clark and what has changed in the huge sports public’s interest in women’s college basketball as a result, a person could ask a truly ignorant question like “What makes you assume this…”. 🙄🤣
She is a basketball LEGEND already 🔥 this girl's impact on women's basketball is iconic
Amazing! She's such a role model and an inspiration to young girls & women everywhere regardless of family background, race, colour or religion. .👍👩🏀
every pace ive semi-traveled-to ive seen highlights! very good player i like her.

The media is still trying to sell and hype up Caitlin Clark/Iowa, who has No Trophy, No Ring, a No defensive game whatsoever. She only has stats and records/numbers that can and will be broken... Caitlin Clark/Iowa is a 2 time NCAA Championship FLOPPER. Stop with all of the hype... Clark/iowa let the fans down 2 years in a row.
Her attitude and demeanor are so refreshing. Humility, gratitude and appreciation for those who have been with her from her family, friends, teammates, coaches and fans. She constantly deflects praise towards all those around her. I never get tired of her interviews.
She and her team are classy ladies.
Sounds about white

in sports you're not supposed to be classy

Legend. Her impact far exceeds just what she does on the court.
Is Caitlin Clark the new Sue Bird ? 😊
A real dawg and humble. My girl. Ponytail Pete is so appropriate.
To be the best and to be so well spoken is freaking amazing to me!!! 😮
Much respect to the GOAT! I was not sure if we would ever see someone of her caliber in the wnba….BAM! have not watched the WNBA in over 15 years, Caitlin will bring a lot of old and new fans to the wnba. She is amazing and so fun to watch!!

She has me watching women’s basketball again. She is amazing and reminds me of Curry. She is a class act and we haven’t seen that in WNBA
Do not underestimate the value of her growing up with a competitive older brother. Caitlin is TOUGH AS NAILS because she grew up competing against naturally stronger guys. And her brothers were probably relentless and didn't "let" her win. She had to EARN her wins. This is why she is unfazed by the heckling, the opponent intimidation, etc., and can get in the lane and finish against anyone. Love this girl.
😮
Tough how? As far as mentality

@@Dinky-gu3fibird also had no college ring because he lost to Magic but that lead to the biggest rivalry in NBA history and saved the NBA and both Magic and Bird are two of the all time greats. The only reason why both Bird and Caitlin didn’t win a championship is because basketball is a team sport and it matters who your teammates are and the simple fact that both were the single top tier players on their team that carried their teams to the finals and for Caitlin two years in a row shows just how good of a player she is.
They played teams that were stacked with all American players built to win championships like UConn and SC plus when it comes to Caitlin they play back to back with no time for rest then add in all the media that she has to do because of the demand while the other teams got to rest their players then they also played the later game and have a deeper bench that allowed for their players to be switched out where as for Iowa their entire team played the whole game for all games throughout the tournament.
If they gave them more time before the final game there could have easily been a different outcome because look at how they were able to win against LSU this year and even beat SC last year because they played them earlier in the tournament.
Plus you only have to look at the many top players like LeBron, Jordan, Curry, etc. and how many years they were in before they even won a Championship. There isn’t a single player that just joined the NBA that I can think of with all the hype and went on to win championships nonstop. Basketball is more then just one player it’s about the team around them and how they make the players around them play better. How they revolutionize the game, etc. which is why what Caitlin has done for women’s basketball and how she does play like Curry and does make the players on her team better players makes her one of the top players if not the goat of women’s basketball. Only time will tell in the end on how many championships she will end up with but I don’t doubt she will be seeing quite a few in her future.
@@dylanloveskellytaylor4774 Do the math and not the stats.
No Trophy + No Ring = No GOAT.
The media is trying to continue the Caitlin Clark hype because they want to chose who the public/masses should idolize or have as their hero. Bird is, never was, and never will be any hero of mine. Caitlin Clark/Iowa a two (2) back to back NCAA Championship FLOPS!... You can worship her, it's a free country.
Thank you, Holly, for this interview. Your respect for Caitlin is evident, and you obviously care about her as a human being. We Hawkeye fans do, too, and though I want them to win every single game, at the end of the day its plain as day the team is made up of just really great human beings and this team transcends basketball. This interview makes me cry, and I have every time I'm reminded there are no more Carver CC22 games but man am I excited for the wave that follows and the bright future in life and ball for Caitlin and the rest of the Hawkeyes of '24! Its been such a privilege and we are all so proud!! Go Hawks!! 🖤💛🖤💛🖤💛
Holly Rowe you have created a great bond with Caitlin. I noticed her hugging you when she got emotional during the tribute at Carver. It must be a special feeling to get this close to a superstar.
Give this woman her flowers! 💐💐💐💐💐💐
I literally texted my older brother last night about has he watched any NCAA ball this yr. I grew up watching and playing, even played ball in college but haven’t really been interested since early 2000s. I watched both Iowa vs lsu and UConn vs usc girls games and it’s amazing how much the game has grown . I’d never thought i would ever say this, but women’s ball, especially the last 2 yrs has been on a level above men’s
exactly!!!!
Thank you for all you have done for women’s college basketball! You are an amazing player , and seem to be an even better person! I can’t wait to follow your WNBA career.
Caitlin is the best college basketball player and Holly is the best sports journalist out, bringing them together for this interview was perfection. Kudos to both! ✌️💙🏀

I've never watched women's sports until Caitlin Clark.
I love her outlook, I def got kicked out of a few P.E classes growing up lol
Holly Rowe conducts natural, brilliant interviews that are a joy to watch.
Friend from Iowa just put me onto her. This is really, really good!
Dear Caitlin, so happy you’re achieving your dreams. Love watching you grow! Keep on keeping on!
As a Notre Dame fan I never got over losing Caitlin. I was literally checking Twitter every day in the fall of 2019 while I was overseas looking for updates. Many of us preferred her over Bueckers before Caitlin got in the national spotlight. It got even worse when Monika Czinano revealed in an interview a couple years ago that Caitlin had silently verballed to ND before changing her mind.
I was hoping she’d do a 5th transfer portal year at Notre Dame. Would be amazing to see ‘Irish’ on the front of a Clark #22 jersey.
She did say YES to ND bc her whole family want her to go (bc its a catholic school?) already called the coach but changed her mind and retract her decision. Its insane.
@@alegna_ennazusI think that's why Coach McGraw stopped visiting because she thought she had a commitment from Caitlin and Caitlin was taking her time to announce. I didn't know it was her whole family that wanted her to go to ND. I remember reading it was her dad and her brothers that wanted her to go to ND. Then some supposed insiders said she committed to Iowa for a personal reason, not only to represent her home state but for another reason.
@@rossrreyes I hoped for that too, but she's very tied to the community at Iowa City now so if she did come back it would have been at Iowa. Especially since Notre Dame has two great point guards now.
@@turtleislandlac1490 oh that's interesting, what was the personal reason? just wanted to be close to home?
GOD BLESS YOU CAITLIN CLARK
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
One of single Best interviews
I have Ever WATCHED!🤑🎉🎉🎉
Caitlin is an exceptional basketball player, and I am looking forward to seeing her play in the WNBA where I think she will continue to excel. Stay humble and continue to have fun, and don’t listen to naysayers, because people are going to always complain, but what matter is only what you think and believe about yourself.
She is the BEST woman basketball player EVER. She's a really humble Woman
Keep going GOAT
Caitlin Clark, Shawn Johnson, they are just simple and sweet besides being great athletes. Iowa must feel proud!
Such a wonderful role model of competiveness and determination. I just love watching and listening to her.
Caitlin is so inspiring to me.
I love this woman. I can’t wait to watch her continue to bloom in Indiana
14:22 “Passing is something that is underrated in my game.” 💯%
Caitlin is on track, at the end of this season, to be lead the nation in points per game AND assists per game. No other player has ever done that, and this will be her SECOND TIME doing so (sophomore season and this season).
Good stuff, and I'll add to that - Clark:
- Is the only college basketball player, male or female, in the top 50 all-time in both scoring and assists - and not just that, but she's 1st in scoring and 4th in assists (currently on pace for 3rd if they make it to the Sweet 16)
- Has led the nation in scoring 3 of her 4 yrs (2nd last yr) and in assists 3 of her 4 yrs (3rd her freshman yr)
As a father to a little girl, thank you. You inspire me to help set her on the right path to success
She has earned everything. Deserving of every blessing. Well done 🎉
What an exciting time to be alive!!! We are witnessing greatness before our very eyes! With players like Caitlin, Paige, JuJu and Angel Reese they make womens basketball so awesome to watch- this is the most excited I've been for basketball (men or women) in a very very long time!!!
This is so prowerful I will never forget this video and I hope she becomes a great player and accomplish all her goals upcoming
Wow she really is inspiring to young athletes! Awesome interview!
Women’s sports needed someone like Caitlyn Clark at this exact time in history to make us all see that WOMENS sports are important, and can generate the crowds & the revenue, - and that it’s important to keep it that way - WOMENS sports!
Gorgeous eyebrows! She’s going to continue to grow her game…from a woman who started when you couldn’t drive the lane or even run past midcourt and jumped into soccer because we could play with boys and the field and rules weren’t changed for girls…
One of the proudest moments of a mom of two boys was having them play coed basketball before 7th grade and being genuinely excited to have girls that were great shooters on their teams 🥰🏀 They’ve been raised in a culture that values women in basketball!
LEGEND!!! GOAT!! LOVE CAITLIN CLARK !! Can't wait for Team USA Olympics and WBNA Indiana Fever!!!
Awesome interview!! I hope they win it all.
They didn't 😂
No matter-she’s still GREAT!!!
@@damonbigsbyschannel7948 they made it far! Congrats to them!!
She has a great mindset and carries herself well on and off the court.
She's so much fun to watch. & her story is just beginning!

She reminds me so much of Pistol Pete. He would be so proud of her accomplishments, especially besting his college record. Caitlin is a phenom.
Looking forward to watching her play tomorrow night! Let’s gooooooo
She's a once in a lifetime athlete and it's great she recognizes her dad's input to her development. She comes across as humble
MEET MAYA MOORE on her childhood list. Still my fave player till this day: )
Me too! Love Maya!
Great job by Holly Rowe on this profile.

About working out before a soccer game, 50 years ago in 1970, HS swim team at Upper Arlington began a workout, then held a meet, then finished the workout.
I love to watch you and your team mates play basketball because you all can shoot the ball very well !! It’s so cool that you can shoot so far away from the basket and lets your teammates get open too !! Let’s Go Iowa Ladies basketball team keep winning for I want to keep watching you all play because you win games in so many ways !! Your defense is so underrated and so I like to see the defensive side of your game also , for the turn overs helps to separate the points of teams !!! So I want to watch you every game for I enjoy the way this team is so very good at this basketball level !! God bless you Iowa ladies basketball team always !! Amen !!!🙏 !!!

Classsy with Holy❤ soccer explains the footwork...I thought so soccer is recommended at a young age any1 can Dribble all ball with the hand but it's hard 2 Dribble with your feet
What a game, what a player
Remarkable!

Class act all the way around! Love the height she & her team mates have being a 6 footer myself. Good luck with the championship game!
Good for you CC, good for Women’s sports, good for basketball. ✊🏾
The WNBA isn't going to pay her. She should take Ice Cube's $5 million offer
SHE'S THE ONE, I CAN FEEL IT, AND EVERYBODY ELSE FEELS IT 🙏 🙏 🙏I'VE NEVER WATCHED A FEMALE BASKETBALL GAME UNTIL SHE STARTED PLAYING AND AHE DELIVERED
💯GOAT, NO DOUBT
Love her
She’s is insane🔥
Greatest ever.
Started watching women's basketball because of Caitlin Clark.
Me too
I love you Caitlin Clark
She manifested it 👐🏽
Baller enough said 👍🏾👍🏾
So who is going to put that doc on YT ?
Even very well spoken! Wow.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Stewart matriculated to an institution with a long established history of national success, including 13 final four appearances and 7 national championships before her arrival. She then had the opportunity to play for this legendary program along side other 5-star recruits and future pros like Morgan Tuck and Moriah Jefferson. In light of these facts, one would hope for a bit more humility when speaking of an athlete who went to an in-state school that had only made one Final Four prior to her arrival and led them to two national championship finals during her tenure. As much as Clark's remarkable achievements may have helped grow the game, Stewart's self-serving berating of Clark's success does just the opposite! I recommend that everyone grab an oar and row together if you wish to build on the success of the past season borne in large part by Clark's stellar performance and leadership. If you need an example of what that would look like, watch Dawn Staley's post-game remarks about Clark following South Carolina's national championship win over Iowa.
Whether it is with Iowa in NCAA or Indiana with WNBA, Caitlin will Continue to Pack The House both at home AND on the road. I've heard that ESPN will pay the WNBA $100M for TV rights for Caitlin's rookie year! Caitlin's contribution to WNBA will result in more expansion teams and more young women being able to play in the WNBA!! 12 teams today...18 teams "tomorrow"!! 🏀 ... CAITLIN ROCKS!!
Congratulations! Very Good Basketball Player, A Smart Player Who Is Fun 2 Watch! Looking Forward 2 See Her Match Up Vs Our Lady Mountaineers In This Years Tournament They Are Talking Giveing Her A Good Game, But She's Tough! So Im Ready 2 Watch Some Great Basketball Competitions! She's An Awesome Player, Like Some Few Females I Know Of Have Grow Up Playing With Guys, WNBA Look Out She's A Great Fun Player 2 Watch!
and she met maya moore!
Thank god she will be in Indiana for her pro career we love basketball and the sport will grow she will win rings
Best Player ever
She is an incredible player! I guess I’ll be watching the WNBA now.
A lot of these female athletes have a great relationship with their father and received a lot of support from him early in their athletic career. I have a feeling that there are going to be a lot of girl dads watching WNBA games now, lol.
👏🏼
Good Caitlin❤
That disgust about losing is nothing to suppress when you want to be pro player. All the greats have it.
She is a stud !
Talented young woman I had been awaiting a female that can shoot and make deep 3 pointers and she has fulfilled that,also good midrange,FT,assists and ball handling.
how tf do you get kicked out of p.e. class for being too competitive😭
I did.
Good luck!
GOAT
