Hmmmm, bummer, this could drop Coach Jumper right out of it.

The BY consensus is that it's Tonya Cordoza. Not a bad guess, and one I would not bet against. It didn't take the yard long to figure that one out. :)

The post was quite specific so the pool of possible options is very small especially if you go from the UConn family

It does. A few things at play here. Geno is incredibly loyal. Tonya is a wonderful human being. The guards she coached while a UConn assistant loved her.

I would like the staff to get younger but the reality is that will happen when Geno retires. He's putting the old rock band back together but not giving it a name.

I think he might name it the "Shut the $%#& up and Win Games" band
 
I wonder if they have already spoken to Tonya about being an AC again. This time though she wouldn't have to recruit off campus so she would have less traveling. Does anybody know that when it comes to recruiting can she make calls to prospective recruits or is the new AC's only allowed to do specific recruiting only when they are on campus.

Yes, I believe that she/he can engage in all recruiting activities except going on the road to do so.

They can definitely make calls to recruits. Shea mentioned that specifically about Katie Lou.

I don’t want to overlook two other outstanding coaches: Sylvia Hatchell and Jody Conradt also meet the qualifications if A1AW championship games qualify. I wasn’t sure if they did.

What exactly is the point of this exercise you're engaging in? These coaches don't meet the preferred qualifications and they wouldn't be candidates in any event!

Why does every thread on this board eventually turn crazy?

I think they want Carla back to make the transition easier

If that were the case they would have written different minimum qualifications. As currently written and posted, she doesn't meet the qualifications.

I think she has said in the past she has no interest. I think she likes a kind of under the radar no pressure type of gig. Probably better for the work-life balance and sanity as well.

Do you think she would refuse UCONN ?
 
Shesh. Tonya was dismissed from Temple a week ago. Job posting fits Tonya to a T. Mystery solved.

Cardoza dismissed after 14 years as Temple's head coach

Though she matched her predecessor Dawn Staley in leading the Owls to a pair of NCAA Tournament victories, a losing trend over the past five years led Athletic Director Arthur Johnson to seek "a change in direction"

She was fired in March of 2022.

Carla has never publicly addressed the UConn job. No reason for her to do so. Would she be interested if offered? No one here knows. She loves coaching at Princeton and has been very successful. She may want to finish her coaching career there.

Sure. She has more than enough money and presumably is happy with what she's accomplished in life. Not everyone wants to be Geno.

For sure but she may want to add a 12 th, 13th or else to the trophy Line
