Caitlin Clark';s game-changing lesson on American sports

Caitlin Clark';s influence reaches far beyond the basketball court.We just watched a woman‚ one woman‚ take a sport that no one cared about and probably increased the overall television ratings and the number of people that watch college basketball‚ womens college basketball‚ this year‚ Jason Whitlock says‚ impressed.Whitlock believes the reason isnt simply her talent but the way she presents herself and her values.She is a phenomenal player‚ and you know‚ shoots from deep‚ but mostly‚ trust me‚ if she had been all tatted up‚ and she had been a deep voice like Brittney Griner and just an out of the closet LGBT‚ I dont think as many people would have tuned in‚ Whitlock explains.Clark‚ who is a Catholic woman in a relationship with a man‚ represents a return to traditional American values.It doesnt matter whether it comes in a white or black packaging‚ because she just did what Michael Jordan did for the NBA‚ and Michael Jordan is about as dark skinned as any black person I know‚ Whitlock says‚ noting that Jordan didnt take a side politically and wasnt all tatted up.Jordan was all about the game itself and spoke highly of his parents and his upbringing. However‚ because big businesses like the NBA are run by people with an agenda‚ theres been less and less of this in sports.Caitlin Clark just exposed everybody in sports. If they wanted success‚ it would mimic the behavior of the Iowa basketball program and Caitlin Clark‚ Whitlock says.Want more from Jason Whitlock?To enjoy more fearless conversations at the crossroads of culture‚ faith‚ sports‚ and comedy with Jason Whitlock‚ subscribe to BlazeTV the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America‚ defend the Constitution‚ and live the American dream.
