OutKick host Dan Dakich said the WNBA missed out on capitalizing on the 'hurricane' of popularity that Caitlin Clark has brought to the league.
OutKick host Dan Dakich said on his show on Monday the WNBA messed up and appeared to be unprepared for what Caitlin Clark has brought to the league through her first 26 professional games. Dakich, who hosts 'Don’t @ Me,' said everyone told the WNBA that a 'hurricane was coming' and, from the league office to the players, they weren’t ready.
Not only should you have known that Caitlin Clark was going to be a star, you should have prepared for it,' Dakich said. 'You should have said, ‘Look, this is what is getting ready to happen, so, let’s do everything to enhance.’ 'Meaning, let’s make sure she’s on the Olympic team. Let’s make sure that other women are smart enough not to be morons to her. But that didn’t happen, and they have to through all of this garbage. All of this c--p, and Cathy Engelbert didn’t understand it.
