The quotation was in this morning's Washington Post (Before Jennifer Rizzotti joined Geno Auriemma’s coaching tree, she stood up to him). It's another of Geno's memorable comments, this one focused on Jen Rizzotti. As you know, Jen is currently coaching the women's bb team at George Washington and having (not surprisingly) some success. She says she took the job because it's close to CT, where her family resides. She didn't move to DC, which may be a harbinger for future coaching jobs (?).
The quotation reminds me of Woody Allen's statement that people who can DO, people who can't do TEACH, and people who can't teach, teach PHYS ED. We know that's not true in all cases, though none comes to mind.
The article is in praise of Jen because of her HOF career at UConn, her success at Hartford, and her experience with Geno as player and coach for the USA. The tenor of the piece is also positive about Geno; it shows he's not only smart but flexible. But we Husky fans know all of that . . .
