Message: [QUOTE="HopJim, post: 4206166, member: 6986"] I think timing will be one of many variables relative to future UConn coaches. Carla came into Princeton with connections into the recruiting base and took over an above average team by Ivy standards. While I expected her to have a winning record immediately, she has exceeded expectations. Opinions will vary how recruiting and coaching at Princeton in a relatively poor basketball league compares versus SC, Stanford, etc. I get the SEC channel on my local cable provider and watch Vandy most weeks. In my opinion, Shea took over a horrid team - short, somewhat slow, and relatively poor shooters. Tough league. Relative to the talent she took over and competing against some of the top teams in the country, Shea has done a solid job. Will take Shea longer to get Vanderbilt into the national rankings. Hopefully we have Geno around for many years and will have more data to base this decision on when he retires. [/QUOTE]
