The fact this is even a discussion is proof the WNBA needs to do something. Expand, increase roster size...something. If you are trying to grow your brand, getting beloved college players like Bridget and Gustafson on a roster is very important.
This makes some sense to me:

The WNBA should consider expansion, but do it in proven College towns with Women’s fan bases. Think Ames or Iowa City couldn’t host a WNBA team and draw 10,000+? Don’t have to link them to NBA cities, link them to proven women’s hoops supporters.
