I can tell you why the disdain exists- sexism! They cannot stand that a strong female has broken one of their sacred records.

She hasn't broken Pearl Moore's record.

I don't see 'disdain' for Caitlin Clark herself. She's a very talented basketball player and will be a WNBA All-Star for years to come. And I think she's just a good a long-range shooter as any player - male or female.

Disdain for the way the NCAA and the clueless media is portraying the 'All-Time NCAA Women's Basketball Scoring Record?' - that would be a Yes.

Why? Because these 2 records (Clark's and Maravich's) cannot be compared. They are not the same because the 2 sports are not the same.

It would be like comparing the all-time Women's Softball home-run record and the all-time College Baseball home-run record. Or the All-time Women's Basketball Assist record or rebound record or steals record vs the Men's.

These are two totally different physicalities, environments, levels of competition, etc.

None of that is 'disdain.' Just actual facts that exist in reality, not made-up-to-suit agenda facades.

Period.
