UConn women’s basketball continues their march towards a 12th national title tonight in the second round of the NCAA Tournament against 10-seeded Buffalo.
Commercial Controversy
Ahead of the March Madness, the NCAA released a commercial titled “Day in the Life” which was designed to show off the life of a student athlete. However, it created a negative blowback from many current and former student athletes, with many mocking it as “Day in the Life of an Intramural Student Athlete.”
Former UConn football star Byron Jones said “This video is NOTHING like being a student athlete” on Twitter while Breanna Stewart added her two cents as well.
