What Caitlin Clark Shared on the Jason Kelce Podcast New Height Show Left Fans Stunned🔥

Video: Caitlin Clark Episode of ‘New Heights’ Podcast Teased By Travis, Jason Kelce

Travis and Jason Kelce’s New Heights podcast will soon experience the “Caitlin Clark Effect.”

The show’s X account teased Wednesday the Indiana Fever star’s appearance, with Jason Kelce saying she’s the “most requested guest in the history of our show.”

Amanda Lucci of Women’s Health shared a portion of Clark’s appearance, which is slated for release Thursday.

Among other topics, the reigning WNBA Rookie of the Year recounted her college recruiting process, which began with receiving letters from interested schools when she was still in middle school.

“I feel very fortunate,” Clark said (via Lucci). “They wanted me to be in seventh grade and enjoy middle school and hang out with [my] friends. Like, you shouldn’t be worrying about where you’re going to college.”

Clark, a native of West Des Moines, Iowa, stayed close to home and signed with the Hawkeyes. She told the Kelces her family “did a really good job of making sure I have a good circle around me” throughout her recruitment.

Picking Iowa was ultimately a great call.

Clark was a two-time national player of the year and set a slew of individual records while guiding the Hawkeyes to back-to-back runner-up finishes in the NCAA tournament. She made a case to be one of the greatest players in women’s basketball history.

Yet the story might have been much different if Clark was able to pursue what had been her original dream scenario.

The Hawkeyes legend told ESPN’s Wright Thompson she, like many others of her generation, came to admire UConn growing up because of their consistent success on the hardwood. However, Huskies coach Geno Auriemma made little effort to sign her because he was focused instead on Paige Bueckers, who was also part of the 2020 class.

Imagine what a backcourt with Clark and Bueckers would’ve looked like.
