I followed  the Men from the 60's old Yankee Conf. great basketball. Hard 2 by 10 plank seats.  The women, upon my return to Storrs, abt 95, I haven't left them since.  
The Geno program is UNIQUE.  Mostly because of Geno. He selected Christine and made her ASSOCIATE Coach--not ASSISTANT--Unique in Basketball.  With Christine handling all the Post players (at first) then creating and running Christines "Finishing School". The program became CLASS lots of CLASS.  Chiristine is every Geno couldn't be, and visa versa.  
I have said and written negatives about Geno. He was not god or a god, he was just a man doing wonderful things with basketball.  My first image of him was at the Capitol steps on a Championship promising to be back next year-I cringed, he didn't make it.  The next was him saying we don't have women or ladies basketball player --we have BASKETBALL Players.  To Geno Basketball was basketball regardless of the gender playing . 
He chartered planes after running for years on a bus.  His young women went first class in hotels, shows on broadway, traveling, eating great food.  Unique.  
Other teams may do it other team may win. But no one will ever surpass Geno on being GENO.
