Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 2060095, member: 5798"] If Geno wins it all, with a young team and a short/inexperienced bench that was not suppose to do anything of significance, nor go deep into the tournament, [B]He has to get it.[/B] He will have done one of the best coaching jobs of his career. During the summer, many of the "informed" basketball pundits predicted that [U]this[/U] would be the year some pay back/revenge would be the order of the day for teams that suffered blowout losses for years at the hands of Geno and his Huskies. This team was suppose to be vulnerable. No returning All-Americans on this team. A team that featured only two returning starters. [U]This[/U] would be the year that UConn was "ripe" for plucking. Teams lined up to get on UConn's OOC schedule this year, wanting to be the first to knock those dreaded huskies off their pedestal. Finally, they had UConn right where they wanted them. Then the alarm clock went off, and they all woke up. :eek: [/QUOTE]
