Message: [QUOTE="UcMiami, post: 5060438, member: 199"] I don't think that college coaches in general are better able to adapt than pros. Geno and Dawn are special cases in that they had long USA experience and had actually coached a number of the stars in college and had a lot of experience coaching against most of the rest of the roster. Neither is likely coming back to coach again, and the other contenders in the college ranks are who? Kim - the obvious one with similar experience and success in coaching and she isn't interest. (Not sure why or if there is some actual history there.) Jeff - really like him, but he hasn't reached the pinnacle and I believe his only NT player is Angel. Tara and Muffet are gone from the game. There are other good college coaches, but few with NT experience on the bench and few with any USA basketball experience. Just don't see an obvious successor in the wings with a can't miss resume. The advantage with the WNBA coaches is that they are in the thick of coaching the NT players and/or studying their film to defend against them. [/QUOTE]
