The coaching job he has done since the 2016 championship has shown no sign of 'aging', or 'slide'. He has taken flawed teams to the FF every year but one. Getting championship wins is the icing and depends on a lot of other factors, especially health, but also the other teams in the FF. I think both UCLA and South Carolina could be said to have more talented rosters, but Uconn had the better team and that is coaching. And even this year injures struck, just not as critically as they had in previous years.

So, yeah, the title is a nice ribbon to wear, but Geno has been masterful in his coaching during the 'drought' - such a funny idea that every one is mentioning this so called drought of 7 tournaments between titles. Really? in the last ten tournaments Dawn and Geno have each won 3, and 4 other teams won 1 each.

In fact, Geno has slowed down, staring with the decade:
1995-2004 Uconn won 5
2005-2014 Uconn won 4
2015-2024 Uconn won 3
Fading fast I guess!

(Pat went 4, 2, 2 in her 3 decades starting with her first in 1987. Dawn needs to win in 2026 to match her predecessors for 4 in her first decade.)
