#UConn football coach Bob Diaco checked out recent women 's basketball practice and had chance to chat with Geno Auriemma afterwards

Would be cool if the new head football coach openly respected and supported the women's program. I know Randy Edsell was present with a large ovation from the crowd for #89 in a row against FSU, and Kevin Ollie got himself a huge ovation for showing up to last season's Baylor game.

The coaches at PSU support each other with attendance at games quite regularly.

Football needs MCBB and WCBB at UCONN to grow together.............UCONN will have the best practice facilities in 2014 in the country and it will only help grow what has been started by Edstall, Calhoun, Tower, Geno and Low Perkins...........2014 will be a winning year at UCONN....

I think the new football hire was very strong on that and they were all trying to dig out from the previous mess.
Kevin and Geno certainly seem to be good friends, just don't know how often either attends the others games - can be pretty tough with both being mid season.

Good. From what I have read he is heavily into motivation. Cannot think of a better place to learn about the subject. Respect. Things have taken a positive turn for uconn.

Maybe he offered Geno an assistant coach's job

Actually, they did it long before the hiring of O'Brien and the mess became an issue.

Low Perkins? How Low can you go? Are you talking about Fat Lew?

Not much else to do in State College. ;^)

Good move coach Diaco, ' Success breeds Success'.

That is closer to the truth but there is always the dairy bar.
