To understand the lightning-fast action and incredible scoring pace of Caitlin Clark and the 2023-24 Iowa Hawkeyes, it is necessary to trace back the evolution of her game through generations of Iowa scoring legends. One of them, Jan Jensen, is the Associate Head Coach with Lisa Bluder's program, and she joins host Howard Megdal to discuss all the ways the game has grown, but remains tethered to, the Iowa 6-on-6 game that produced stars like Jansen's grandmother, Dorcas Andersen, Machine Gun Molly Kazmer and Jansen herself. The two discuss this, the way Clark and Iowa have broken through into the broader culture, and all the ways Bluder and Jansen's vision has been validated, from Jansen living as her authentic self to the multi-decade expansion of the Big Ten.
