2024 College Basketball maps

[gsmooth]

Summary of the most popular teams/players by state during 2024. Pretty entertaining looking over the maps (though seeing Caitlin Clark sweep the U.S. AND Canada and Bueckers couldn't even win CT is a bit of a bummer). Also interesting seeing where the UConn men were #1 besides the NE.

Thanks for opening this thread and showing this map. You should give this to AD Dave Benedict for him to pitch to the Big 12 or else I will . Yes, football is the 80 in the 80-20 rule in conference realignment, but UConn's basketball brand is not only a very successful blue blood, but it has some mass appeal in the country.
As long as UConn can continue to build and improve their football (more NIL for better players), the front door to a P4 invite will eventually open. This starts with the Fenway Bowl. A good large and loud contingent of UConn fans at Fenway along with a win over North Carolina will go a long way toward helping UConn's P4 aspirations especially with the game on regular ESPN. We all know it won't seal the deal, but it would help.

Need to keep this going, play home and homes with top teams where we want to be, build our brand in places that matter.

Cuse can't even win their home country of Canada.

Single handedly holding it down out here in the barren winter wasteland. Your welcome.

In all seriousness, there's 3 of us just at my office alone. A 90s grad, a 2000s grad and a 2010s grad. The rest of the state only watches hockey or the Vikings, easy to standout.

Are you in ND? Im currently in Mexico but i have a house in Fargo which i will likely return to some day.

Interesting that a number of flagship universities in P4 conferences didn’t even carry their own state.

I've lived in Minot 10 out of the last 18 years, 08-13 and 21-now, but I'll be moving again this summer. Gonna have to get you back to Fargo to keep up this most watched map!
