<v Speaker 1>coming up right after this Welcome back slices, Happy Friday.

0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Here's what you need to know today in NWSL news,

0:00:49.320 --> 0:00:53.000
<v Speaker 1>per Sports Illustrated, forward Lynn Williams and goalkeeper Cassie Miller

0:00:53.159 --> 0:00:55.400
<v Speaker 1>have been traded from New York New Jersey Gotham FC

0:00:55.720 --> 0:00:58.480
<v Speaker 1>to the Seattle Rain for midfielder Jalen Howell and an

0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:02.840
<v Speaker 1>undisclosed transfer fee. Sources told SI that Williams, who's from California,

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:04.520
<v Speaker 1>wants to finish her career at a club on the

0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:08.000
<v Speaker 1>West Coast, and that request factored into this trade. Williams

0:01:08.040 --> 0:01:09.800
<v Speaker 1>join Gotham back in twenty twenty three and has been

0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:12.360
<v Speaker 1>a huge part of the club's rejuvenation over the past seasons,

0:01:12.480 --> 0:01:15.440
<v Speaker 1>including helping them to their NWSL championship win in twenty

0:01:15.440 --> 0:01:18.760
<v Speaker 1>twenty three. She's the NWSL's all time leading goal scorer

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:21.600
<v Speaker 1>with eighty total goals, and she ranks third all time

0:01:21.640 --> 0:01:24.240
<v Speaker 1>for assists with twenty eight. In two seasons with Gotham,

0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:26.920
<v Speaker 1>she racked up eleven goals and four assists in thirty

0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:30.720
<v Speaker 1>five matches. In lacrosse News, Athletes Unlimited has decided to

0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:35.720
<v Speaker 1>suspend its Pro Lacrosse League indefinitely, effective immediately. AU released

0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:39.480
<v Speaker 1>a statement detailing the decision on Wednesday. The international competition

0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:42.120
<v Speaker 1>schedule and athlete availability during the summer months in the

0:01:42.120 --> 0:01:44.720
<v Speaker 1>next few years were cited as obstacles which make it

0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:47.880
<v Speaker 1>impossible to project the league's growth over that period. AU

0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:50.320
<v Speaker 1>did state that every athlete who's played in its Lacrosse

0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:53.440
<v Speaker 1>league will continue to benefit from its profit participation plan

0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:56.120
<v Speaker 1>in their final season and the nineteen years that follow.

0:01:56.720 --> 0:01:59.000
<v Speaker 1>In Pro Hoops, it feels like Asia Wilson racks up

0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:02.320
<v Speaker 1>another accolade. Every Day Sports Illustrated named the Las Vegas

0:02:02.360 --> 0:02:05.560

<v Speaker 1>Their twenty twenty four WNBA Player of the Year low

0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:12.200
<v Speaker 1>refresher on the unbelievable season Asia had In thirty eight

0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:14.919
<v Speaker 1>regular season games. She set the WNBA record for points

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:17.680
<v Speaker 1>at a season with oneenty twenty one, becoming the first

0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:20.560
<v Speaker 1>player to eclipse the one thousand point mark in WNBA history.

0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:23.040
<v Speaker 1>She set the WNBA record for rebounds in a season

0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:26.200
<v Speaker 1>and became the only player in WNBA and NBA history

0:02:26.320 --> 0:02:29.280
<v Speaker 1>to lead a season in points, rebounds, and blocks, en

0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:33.000
<v Speaker 1>route to a unanimous MVP selection. College Hoops News a

0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:35.400
<v Speaker 1>disturbing situation that we mentioned a while back has come

0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:38.520
<v Speaker 1>to a conclusion. Robert Cole Parmally, the forty year old

0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:41.160
<v Speaker 1>man who was arrested back in August for stalking yukon

0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:44.520
<v Speaker 1>basketball star page Beckers, pleaded guilty on Wednesday to a

0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:47.880
<v Speaker 1>second degree charge at Rockville Superior Court. He received a

0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:51.519
<v Speaker 1>one year suspended sentence and three years probation. Parmelly's plea

0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:54.119
<v Speaker 1>agreement dictates that he must abide by a protective order

0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:56.680
<v Speaker 1>that's been in effect since September sixteenth and will remain

0:02:56.720 --> 0:03:00.480
<v Speaker 1>in place until January fourth, twenty sixty four and must

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:03.720
<v Speaker 1>comply with treatment recommendations for his mental health. He's also

0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:05.880
<v Speaker 1>banned from the state of Connecticut during his three year

0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:09.840
<v Speaker 1>probation and from arenas, hotels, and practice facilities where the

0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:13.160
<v Speaker 1>Yukon women's basketball team is present. The WNBA has barred

0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:16.240
<v Speaker 1>him from all arenas and practice facilities as well. It's

0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:18.800
<v Speaker 1>frankly infuriating that this is a thing that Paiges had

0:03:18.840 --> 0:03:20.840
<v Speaker 1>to deal with, but we're glad that the situation was

0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:25.880
<v Speaker 1>taken seriously and resulted in some meaningful punishment. All Right,

0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:28.200
<v Speaker 1>Slice says, it's time for the triumphant return of one

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:33.240
<v Speaker 1>of our favorite segments. Yes, and now, if you've been

0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:35.000
<v Speaker 1>listening to our shows this week, you may have heard

0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:38.840
<v Speaker 1>our conversation with sophomore sensation Juju Watkins. Last season, in

0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:41.600
<v Speaker 1>the final year of the Pac twelve Conference, Watkins led

0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:44.440
<v Speaker 1>a resurgence in SoCal, helping the Trojans to their first

0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:47.440
<v Speaker 1>number one seed in the NCAA Tournament since nineteen eighty six,

0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:50.360
<v Speaker 1>and she scored nine hundred twenty points. That's good for

0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:52.600
<v Speaker 1>the most points by a freshman in D one history.

0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:55.600
<v Speaker 1>Speaking in nineteen eighty six, though, what was going on

0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 1>back then? Who led that team to a number one

0:03:58.280 --> 0:04:01.840
<v Speaker 1>seed in the attorney. Well, that would be Cheryl Miller, arguably

0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:04.120
<v Speaker 1>one of the best to ever lace him up the

0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Ford was a four time All American and three time

0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Naysmith Award recipient, and to this day, she still holds

0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:14.160
<v Speaker 1>USC records for career scoring with threeenty eighteen points, rebounds,

0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:17.880
<v Speaker 1>fifteen hundred and thirty four, rebound average twelve rebounds per game,

0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:21.360
<v Speaker 1>and free throws mate seven hundred. Miller led the Trojans

0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:24.080
<v Speaker 1>to back to back NCAA championships in nineteen eighty three

0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:26.720
<v Speaker 1>and eighty four, and she dominated with Team USA as well,

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:28.920
<v Speaker 1>winning a gold medal at the eighty four Olympics. For

0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:31.120
<v Speaker 1>her impact on the game, she's been recognized as both

0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:34.200
<v Speaker 1>the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Famer and a Women's

0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Basketball Hall of Famer. Now, if you recall, we also

0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:40.400
<v Speaker 1>told you yesterday that another recent college hoops superstar, Caitlin Clark,

0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:42.760
<v Speaker 1>will have her jersey retired at Iowa at the beginning

0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:45.159
<v Speaker 1>of February when the team faces off against what a

0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:49.640
<v Speaker 1>coincidence USC. Of course, that honor is extremely well deserved.

0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:52.719
<v Speaker 1>Clark changed the trajectory of the entire Hawkeyes program and

0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:56.520
<v Speaker 1>of women's basketball at large. Pretty cool, right, We'll get this, folks.

0:04:56.920 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Miller had her jersey retired too, during the eighty six

0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:04.320
<v Speaker 1>season while she was still playing. Miller's was the first

0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 1>basketball jersey USC retired ever, regardless of gender. Shout out

0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:11.919
<v Speaker 1>to the delightful and insightful Jordan Robinson for reminding us

0:05:11.960 --> 0:05:13.880
<v Speaker 1>about this through a post on Blue Sky. We'll link

0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:17.479
<v Speaker 1>to that in the show notes. So yes, ju Ju Watkins, Yes,

0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:22.400
<v Speaker 1>Caitlin Clark, and Cheryl Miller. Because Cheryl Miller was her

0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:26.080
<v Speaker 1>and frankly still is. She got her flowers at WNBA

0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:28.200
<v Speaker 1>All Star Weekend this summer and was selected to coach

0:05:28.200 --> 0:05:31.320
<v Speaker 1>Team WNBA. During the All Star Game, her squad won

0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:33.880
<v Speaker 1>one seventeen to one oh nine, beating a team of

0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:36.080
<v Speaker 1>players roster for the US national team that went on

0:05:36.120 --> 0:05:39.160
<v Speaker 1>to win gold in Paris. Now, the WNBA didn't exist

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:41.920
<v Speaker 1>when Miller graduated from USC, and her career was also

0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:44.719
<v Speaker 1>cut short by severe knee injuries. But ask your favorite

0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:47.440
<v Speaker 1>player's favorite player who their favorite player is, and we

0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:51.599
<v Speaker 1>bet at Cheryl Miller. We got to take a quick break.

0:05:51.680 --> 0:05:54.360
<v Speaker 1>When we come back, We're actually gonna pick a trio

0:05:54.480 --> 0:06:06.040
<v Speaker 1>name this time seriously, for real, we promise, don't go anywhere.

0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:10.600
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to Slices. We're bringing in producers Mish and

0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:12.840
<v Speaker 1>Alex for this conversation because we got it once and

0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:14.560
<v Speaker 1>for all. Pick a name for ourselves now. If you

0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:16.520
<v Speaker 1>listened earlier in the week, we were kind of talking

0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:20.440
<v Speaker 1>about nailing it down to possibly the Grove. But while

0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:23.560
<v Speaker 1>we were talking about that, the name Big Citrus came

0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 1>up as kind of a joke, and one of our faves,

0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:30.640
<v Speaker 1>Colleen Conahan, multi time guest, longtime listener, said she actually

0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:33.880
<v Speaker 1>likes Big Citrus as our name, so we got to

0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:37.640
<v Speaker 1>consider Big Citrus. And then Amy Liss, longtime listener, one

0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:40.160
<v Speaker 1>of my faves. Shout out to Amy, wrote us, if

0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:44.600
<v Speaker 1>you're the Grove, Alex and Mesh are the produce ers, Yeah,

0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:47.880
<v Speaker 1>we are, which is incredible. I did not even think

0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:52.080
<v Speaker 1>about that produce amazing, incredible. And then Amanda Vallo, who

0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:55.320
<v Speaker 1>sent us some good co ed sports etiquette editions, came

0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:59.320
<v Speaker 1>back to the email and she wrote, quote real Ladies

0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:03.520
<v Speaker 1>Marmala based on the show tune Creole Lady Marmalade. It

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:06.679
<v Speaker 1>represents Chicago Lady Gaga Oranges. How could you go wrong,

0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:09.000
<v Speaker 1>you guys would be setting the record straight and owning

0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:11.640
<v Speaker 1>the lyric on the daily. Apparently this is a song

0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:13.160
<v Speaker 1>about a guy trying to hook up with a hooker.

0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:16.280
<v Speaker 1>That's not important, y'all, but I do think it's really

0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:20.520
<v Speaker 1>fun to say real lady mud every single time you

0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:24.640
<v Speaker 1>hear it. She also suggested Sam Sam the first letter

0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:27.320
<v Speaker 1>amalgamation of Sarah, Alex and meish and when people ask

0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:28.880
<v Speaker 1>who you are what you do, you can have fun

0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:32.640
<v Speaker 1>saying I am Sam or Sam I am. Amanda also

0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:34.440
<v Speaker 1>said you could lean into the growth and success of

0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:38.360
<v Speaker 1>the WNBA and call yourselves the Orange Hoodies the hood

0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 1>for short, Home of the Slices. And most importantly, she said, ps,

0:07:42.520 --> 0:07:44.920
<v Speaker 1>I work at a service dog organization, and anytime you're

0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.160
<v Speaker 1>in Denver you're invited for a tour, I promise it

0:07:47.160 --> 0:07:49.440
<v Speaker 1>will include lots of dog time and an ending where

0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:53.200
<v Speaker 1>you're smothered in puppies. Please consider end quote yea duh,

0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:56.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean duh On the last part. We're clearly if

0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:58.080
<v Speaker 1>I am in Denver, I will be reaching out and

0:07:58.120 --> 0:08:02.640
<v Speaker 1>I will be smothered in puppies. Okay, Alex Mesh, let's

0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:04.600
<v Speaker 1>whittle this down I don't think I want to go

0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:06.560
<v Speaker 1>with SAM.

0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Sorry.

0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:10.040
<v Speaker 1>I kind of love the orange hoodies the hood for sure,

0:08:10.160 --> 0:08:13.200
<v Speaker 1>it's pretty cute and it does tie in WNBA, but

0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:15.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it supersedes the other ideas. I don't

0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:18.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if that's for us, Okay.

0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:20.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean I do want to maybe FLAG Could we

0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:25.440
<v Speaker 2>do ASM instead? Like who says SAM has to be

0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:27.680
<v Speaker 2>the order that we could compete with the American Society

0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:28.720
<v Speaker 2>of Microbiology.

0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, No, I don't like that because it reminds me

0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:33.520
<v Speaker 1>of ASMR. Yeah.

0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:37.280
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we'll someday add a third producer Rachel or.

0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:40.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but then people will expect us to do our

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:45.280
<v Speaker 1>shows like this and hope that we'll give them really

0:08:45.320 --> 0:08:49.920
<v Speaker 1>good sports content. And that's just not my style. So

0:08:50.160 --> 0:08:52.080
<v Speaker 1>we're not gonna be SAM, and we're not gonna be

0:08:52.120 --> 0:08:58.720
<v Speaker 1>ASM or R. Real Ladies Marmelote is hilarious, but I

0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:00.600
<v Speaker 1>don't think it really rolls off the tongue, and I

0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:03.440
<v Speaker 1>will then insist every time we say it that I

0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:08.160
<v Speaker 1>go real ladies, Mama. I don't think I can handle

0:09:08.200 --> 0:09:12.640
<v Speaker 1>that exactly, think anyone can handle that, including me. So

0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:15.960
<v Speaker 1>we're back to where we started with Big Citrus and

0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:19.800
<v Speaker 1>the Grove, and frankly, I'm stumped. I'm gonna need you

0:09:19.840 --> 0:09:21.760
<v Speaker 1>to to help us come to a consensus here.

0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:26.520
<v Speaker 3>This is a big This is probably the hardest problem

0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:29.920
<v Speaker 3>I've ever been tasked with solving in life, in life,

0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:37.720
<v Speaker 3>generally speaking, the biggest thing. So from our last conversation,

0:09:38.120 --> 0:09:40.679
<v Speaker 3>I was a big fan of the Grove. I still

0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:44.760
<v Speaker 3>I've got some eggs in that basket. But Plaine and

0:09:44.840 --> 0:09:47.640
<v Speaker 3>Big Citrus, I think I told y'all when we first

0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:52.240
<v Speaker 3>saw her message. I enjoy the kind of conspiratorial vibe

0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:56.600
<v Speaker 3>that comes from Big Citrus because Big Pharma. Not that

0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:59.079
<v Speaker 3>I want to be associated with Big Pharma, you know,

0:09:59.600 --> 0:09:59.880
<v Speaker 3>we do.

0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:01.640
<v Speaker 1>I want to make that kind of bag, but we

0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:05.280
<v Speaker 1>do not want to go to jail ruin people's lives. Yes, exactly,

0:10:05.400 --> 0:10:09.079
<v Speaker 1>Can we just have the first half that's grown up me,

0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:10.679
<v Speaker 1>that's grown upb me, Alex.

0:10:11.120 --> 0:10:14.200
<v Speaker 2>I think I was the one that originally pitched the grove,

0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:16.719
<v Speaker 2>and I can't remember if I said the grove or

0:10:16.760 --> 0:10:20.320
<v Speaker 2>the Orange Grove. But I'm now on the Big Citrus train.

0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:24.680
<v Speaker 2>I just I agree, Mesh, conspiratorial sounds like we got

0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:25.720
<v Speaker 2>some stuff to hide.

0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:29.120
<v Speaker 1>We stuff going on you know, I love drama. I

0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:32.240
<v Speaker 1>don't know everything. Yeah, and I just I think there's

0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:35.640
<v Speaker 1>something very clever and more fun about saying we hear

0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:40.079
<v Speaker 1>a big citrus rolling out some episodes about or we

0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:43.240
<v Speaker 1>hear a big citrus decided to say you to fill

0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:45.800
<v Speaker 1>in the blank, as opposed to we hear at the grove.

0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:49.880
<v Speaker 1>The grove is nice, it's sweet, It is where oranges grow.

0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:54.080
<v Speaker 1>Promulgate Is that the word I'm looking for? My brain

0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:57.760
<v Speaker 1>just said it? Is that correct? Would you say prommelgate?

0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:05.000
<v Speaker 1>I've never heard that google, probable gate, prommel gate, promote

0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:09.880
<v Speaker 1>or make widely known an idea or cause? Yeah, where

0:11:09.880 --> 0:11:11.840
<v Speaker 1>did you even pull that? I don't know. My brain

0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:16.160
<v Speaker 1>just goes prom gate. Anyway, I think we got to

0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:18.160
<v Speaker 1>go with big Citrus. I think we made a decision.

0:11:18.960 --> 0:11:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Shouts to Klain for picking up on our joke about

0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:24.439
<v Speaker 1>big citrus and being like, that's actually it, which h

0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:27.280
<v Speaker 1>It's Sometimes the best way to come to a consensus

0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:32.439
<v Speaker 1>is to stumble upon it, like a perfectly ripe orange

0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:39.640
<v Speaker 1>in a grove. Nice, that was smooth. That was smooth.

0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:44.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to restrict us from lemons or limes either.

0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:48.319
<v Speaker 2>Citrus is a wide category, and I don't want us

0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:50.960
<v Speaker 2>to just feel like we have to be orange all

0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:51.840
<v Speaker 2>the time always.

0:11:52.600 --> 0:11:54.640
<v Speaker 1>You know what, You've opened up a door for potential

0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:57.400
<v Speaker 1>segment about lemons, because you know when something's a real lemon,

0:11:58.320 --> 0:12:00.880
<v Speaker 1>like I don't know, Boss Nation, too many balls. That

0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:04.480
<v Speaker 1>was a real lemon. We're never gonna let them move

0:12:04.480 --> 0:12:07.160
<v Speaker 1>that down. No, we really are, until they change which

0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:12.240
<v Speaker 1>times Ticking black is sticking, all right, Big Citrus, it

0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:15.839
<v Speaker 1>is congratulations to us on making a decision.

0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:17.680
<v Speaker 2>To put our hands in and cheer.

0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:21.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah what I mean, the only cheer I always do

0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:24.480
<v Speaker 1>is what time is it game? Tom? Which is from

0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:26.520
<v Speaker 1>the nineties Bulls. I'm just not sure that works as

0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:27.679
<v Speaker 1>well for Big Citrus.

0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:32.520
<v Speaker 3>That's not from high school musical excuse me me, Oh,

0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:35.080
<v Speaker 3>that's a completely different thing anyway anyway.

0:12:35.480 --> 0:12:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Also, if it was, it would be a shout out

0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:40.320
<v Speaker 1>to the nineties Bulls greatness. It would not be something

0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:44.920
<v Speaker 1>that was promulgated by high school music. See away, it's

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:48.040
<v Speaker 1>time to I'm just showing off. Time to move on,

0:12:48.160 --> 0:12:53.319
<v Speaker 1>Big Citrus. Time for a little good game. Good game

0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:56.920
<v Speaker 1>fact you with the UNC women's soccer team winning the

0:12:56.960 --> 0:13:01.200
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty four NCAA title. An impressive street continues. So

0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:05.320
<v Speaker 1>every four year UNC student who enrolled since nineteen seventy

0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:09.080
<v Speaker 1>seven has been on campus for at least one Tar

0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:13.280
<v Speaker 1>Heels team winning a national title. Wow, even more impressive,

0:13:13.720 --> 0:13:17.000
<v Speaker 1>UNC's women's soccer team had so much success in the past.

0:13:17.080 --> 0:13:20.280
<v Speaker 1>Every UNC student enrolled between nineteen seventy seven and twenty

0:13:20.320 --> 0:13:23.280
<v Speaker 1>twelve was on campus for at least one women's soccer

0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:29.480
<v Speaker 1>national title. Specifically, fantastic stuff, right, congratulations to the tar Heels.

0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:31.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you want to listen to this

0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:33.559
<v Speaker 1>next part though, because that leads us straight into today's

0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:37.440
<v Speaker 1>what the Fact. So, as part of USA Today's really

0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:39.800
<v Speaker 1>excellent coverage of the fiftieth anniversary of Title nine and

0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:42.840
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty two, Rachel Axson and Lindsay Schnell, friend of

0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:45.400
<v Speaker 1>the show, reported on the high percentage of colleges that

0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:48.520
<v Speaker 1>aren't in compliance with the law and still aren't providing

0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:51.480
<v Speaker 1>equal opportunities in sport to their female students. What does

0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:53.439
<v Speaker 1>that have to do with UNC? Take a listen to

0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:56.920
<v Speaker 1>a bit of their findings. Quote. USA Today found eighty

0:13:56.960 --> 0:14:00.520
<v Speaker 1>seven percent of colleges and universities are not offered athletic

0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:04.200
<v Speaker 1>opportunities to women proportionate to their enrollment. According to the

0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:07.760
<v Speaker 1>News organization's analysis of one hundred twenty seven public and

0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:10.920
<v Speaker 1>private schools in the Football Bowl Subdivision during the twenty

0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:14.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty twenty one academic year, proportionality is the surest

0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:17.280
<v Speaker 1>of the three ways that school's athletic departments can show

0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:20.280
<v Speaker 1>compliance with Title nine under the US Department of Education's

0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:22.880
<v Speaker 1>three prong test. Calling the measure of a quote unquote

0:14:22.920 --> 0:14:26.000
<v Speaker 1>safe harbor, the agency states that the gender composition of

0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:30.120
<v Speaker 1>its athletic program should substantially match that of its undergraduate enrollment.

0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:34.480
<v Speaker 1>To measure schools proportionality. USA Today used enrollment data from

0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:38.480
<v Speaker 1>the National Center for Education Statistics and athletic participation data

0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.240
<v Speaker 1>from NCAA reports that it obtained from the schools under

0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:45.240
<v Speaker 1>public records law or the Equity and Athletics Disclosure Act database.

0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:49.040
<v Speaker 1>It found that one hundred ten schools would need to

0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:51.960
<v Speaker 1>add a total of eleven thousand, five hundred and one

0:14:52.080 --> 0:14:55.920
<v Speaker 1>female roster spots to close the participation gap. That's an

0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:58.640
<v Speaker 1>average of one hundred four per school, roughly the size

0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:01.200
<v Speaker 1>of a football team, and enough to add three or

0:15:01.320 --> 0:15:05.160
<v Speaker 1>four women's teams each. Among the schools with the biggest

0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:08.320
<v Speaker 1>gaps were the University of Memphis, the University of Louisiana

0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:12.040
<v Speaker 1>and Monroe, and the University of South Alabama. None was

0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:15.480
<v Speaker 1>larger than the University of North Carolina, though it would

0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:20.120
<v Speaker 1>need to add three hundred ninety five female roster spots.

0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:24.680
<v Speaker 1>The analysis found end quote. That's right. In twenty twenty

0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:29.240
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty one, UNC was three hundred ninety five female

0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:32.720
<v Speaker 1>roster spots short of providing equal sports opportunities to their

0:15:32.760 --> 0:15:36.800
<v Speaker 1>female students. So congrats on the lengthy title streak. How

0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:40.280
<v Speaker 1>about working on your participation gap, UNC, I mean, haven't

0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:43.120
<v Speaker 1>the women's teams been successful enough to prove the value

0:15:43.200 --> 0:15:48.120
<v Speaker 1>of even more opportunity, more teams, more titles? Right? What

0:15:48.280 --> 0:15:52.520
<v Speaker 1>the fact? UNC? And here's another fact. Elf Beauty's recent

0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:56.160
<v Speaker 1>report shows that gender diverse boards lead to positive business results.

0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:59.560
<v Speaker 1>SMP five hundred companies with above average gender diversity on

0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:02.240
<v Speaker 1>their board saw a fifteen percent boost in return on

0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:05.040
<v Speaker 1>equity and a fifty percent drop in earning's risk over

0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:07.560
<v Speaker 1>a year. You can read the full report at elfbauty
