Nice article by Carl on the many deep connections between the schools and coaches:
- Geno was an asst to Jim Foster at St Joe's in 1978 (he left and Muffet joined Foster's staff);
- Geno's best friend is St Joe's men's coach Phil Martelli
- St Joe's coach Cindy Griffin was recruited by Geno and Chris
- Geno coached Griffin's older sister at Bishop McDevitt
- St Joe's Dir of Bball Operations is Katie Gardler, daughter-in-law of Geno's former HS coach and friend Buddy Gardler and sister-in-law of Meghan; Katie also was an AAU teammate of Meghan Culmo and Debbie (Baer) Fiske and played against UConn in 1992 at Gampel while playing for St Joe's
- St Joe's player Erin Shields' sister Kerri was recruited by Geno a few years ago but chose BC; Erin joined Kerri on her recruiting trip
