Thanks!Found an article from SC on this and also did a little checking.
Gameday did a show from Knoxville in 2011 as part of Tennessee's men's and women's doubleheader against Vanderbilt. The Lady Vols played Saturday night or the second game of the doubleheader. Next Sunday's Gameday show in Columbia is different than what took place in Storrs in 2010 and Knoxville in 2011. In those instances it was the Men's Gameday show (Jay Bilas, Rece Davis, etc) that did its show in connection with a women's game or, in the case of Tennessee, a men's/women's doubleheader. The women's games were broadcast during the Saturday night ESPN slot typically reserved for men's games. The men's broadcast team did the women's games. Next Sunday's Gameday show is the women's version with the normal studio host/analysts doing a pregame show on location. It's still very important and should happen every year.
From the SC article which is not entirely accurate.
College Gameday’s trip to visit Dawn Staley’s USC will be its first time making an exclusive trip to a women’s basketball game in 11 years. The show has previously highlighted UConn in 2010 and Tennessee in 2011.
Doors to Colonial Life Arena will open at 11:30 a.m. for ticket holders to attend the pregame show. College GameDay will be hosted by Elle Duncan and feature analysts Carolyn Peck, Rebecca Lobo, Holly Rowe and Andraya Carter.

Yes, it should happen AT LEAST once a year. In fact, it should have happened this year at the first game - SCar at NCState!
