Nope. It’s who has the biggest following. People want to hear about their team. UCLA’s fan support and interest is awful. If you talk about things where there is no audience, you won’t have a platform for long.
The breakdown of the time allocation you referenced is probably equal to the attendance. It’s also not just the distance. The game against New Mexico in Vegas was a freaking ghost town. This is just my impression and it may be completely off base but UCLAs basketball fans tend to be much older than unc, uk, osu and most other programs because its success happened more than 50 years ago. Older fanbases tend not to listen to podcasts. They are geared to a younger audience.
