Locked On Women's Basketball – Daily Podcast On The WNBA

You might have a Super Bowl hangover but the past week in women's college basketball was as crazy as ever.

And what do we make of No. 17 Gonzaga, quietly moving up the polls and dominating out west? Analyst Missy Heidrick and Matthew Walter from The Next break it all down, including what makes the Bulldogs so good and how they will soon intersect with some teams from the dominating Pac-12, including No. 11 Oregon State.

Elite scoring guard Jacy Sheldon of The Ohio State University joins host Howard Megdal to discuss the rise of the Buckeyes. A year ago, Sheldon wondered whether she'd ever be healthy enough to play the way she has while dominating at every level. Now she is the apple of WNBA scouting departments' eyes and a realistic, yet cinematic goal is in reach: finishing her collegiate career with a Final Four trip to her childhood home of Cleveland. All this and much more in our latest conversation.

A week ago, there was one undefeated team in Big 12 play and sitting at No. 2 in the nation. Now, a new team is atop the conference standings and there are five Big 12 teams in the AP Top 25 this week. No. 24 Oklahoma is at 9-1 in league play after a huge week - who else is trending up? Who is trending down? Who is holding steady? Analyst and national correspondent Missy Heidrick breaks it all down as everyone is riding the Big 12 roller coaster with every battle night in and night out. Which games do you need to keep an eye on in the upcoming days and did you know there is a Big 12 flavor to Super Bowl LVIII?

Host Jackie Powell is joined by Winsidr’s Rachel Galligan to react and dissect what came out of February 1’s WNBA free agency signing day. What did the pair glean about how different WNBA teams have approached getting better before training camp begins in just a couple of months? They also dive into what has felt different about 2024’s free agency period and why it was a slow burn that turned into a rapid fire explosion. And finally, Powell and Galligan preview what lies ahead and what shoes are left to drop. What will Nneka Ogwumike choose? Does DeWanna Bonner shock the world? And what’s going on with Elena Delle Donne?
