Former ESPNer Jemele Hill went incredibly viral for all the wrong reasons days ago when she downplayed Caitlin Clark’s effect on the growth in popularity of women’s basketball, while also railing against the media for not giving the same attention to Black players.
Hill stated the media had been doing a terrible job covering women’s sports, and when it does, it will “overload in one direction” as she referred to the covering of white players like Caitlin Clark and UConn star Paige Bueckers.
On Sunday, the NCAA’s all-time scoring leader, scored 18 of the Hawkeyes’ 27 points during the first quarter on Sunday as Iowa opened a seven-point lead over unbeaten South Carolina in the national championship game.
She would finish with 30 as South Carolina swarmed the Hawkeyes and their unquestioned leader in wave upon wave while pulling away late for an 87-75 victory.
After the loss, Jemele Hill would take to X to change her tune and praise Caitlin Clark for what she had done at Iowa.

Days before, Hill railed against the media for not covering Aliyah Boston when she was in college as she was arguably the best player then. Now, Clark is set to become her teammate.
