  1. In Twitter postings, women players are showing that the San Antonio convention center has lots of open space next to the practice facilities. NCAA missed the boat on this one.

    One question: who provided the swag? NCAA or host cities?

  2. It’s not just sports. After 12+ years in major state university administration, my base compensation remains 15% below that of the man I replaced. I have raised the issue twice, to little avail.

  3. Hope not to get crucified on this, but from what I have read the NCAA makes about $750 – $800 million on the Men’s tournament TV deal versus $35 million on the Women’s TV deal. It doesn’t make the different treatment of each set of teams right, but does add some context to it.
    Barbara’s situation is a better example of unequal pay or treatment for providing the same service with no logical reason.
