Oooh, I know where Rollins College is! It's in Winter Park Florida, in eastern Orlando. Yay, another team to root for.

With regards to PAC-12 being a tougher conference ... that's mostly recent (last ~ 5 years). Prior to that it was Stanford and a bunch of "also rans", while UConn was battling it out in the "Old Big East", which was MUCH tougher than the Pac-10 / Pac-12.
All that to say, Geno's crazy win percentage (ave# wins) has been higher than Tara's for a couple decades now...

Exactly! The Pac 10 wasn't nearly as competitive as was the Big East for a number of years!
 
Geno is very likely to pass Tara by April of 2019. I’m expecting around 37 wins this year for Geno, 26 for Tara. That gap should close the following year but I’d still anticipate Geno winning maybe 3 to 6 more than Tara next year. It will be close-ish but I’d put a lot of money on Geno getting to 1,098 first.
 
I really enjoy this thread.

Please keep posting. Much appreciated.

I think Tara might be still a couple of games ahead of Geno at the end of this season, but will be passed by soon later in the fall of 2019..
 
I don’t care who passes Pat first. I just hope Geno, once he does pass Pat and Tara, just keeps increasing his lead until it’s insurmountable. Guess it just depends who retires first...

I'm intrigued by the race to 1,098, but it matters little to me who actually gets there first.

Wouldn't it be cool if somehow Geno and Tara were tied at 1,097 or 1,098 (or one was only one win ahead of the other) and then UConn and Stanford faced each other in the next game? Might that happen in the 2020 postseason?

Yes retirement is ultimately the issue. Whoever coaches the longest -- and this includes Barbara Stevens and Muffet -- will likely end as the leader.

If Tara passes Pat first, then she will have some time, however short, as the winningest coach.

If Geno gets there first, then Tara will only ever be the winningest coach if she outlives Geno (coaching-wise, that is). If that were the case she might stay in that position for a very long time.

Another highly possible scenario is she does both - beats Geno to the top, then gets passed by Geno shortly thereafter, then coaches longer than him and passes him again.

I note that Coach Hatchell continues to limp along with UNC’s OOC cupcake schedule. So far this season, the Tar Heels have played 1 ranked team, KY, and lost. They also have losses to unranked Maine, CO & tOSU. There best win so far was a 2 pt victory over USF without Laksa.
 
I agree with Hussybulldog(I’d love to hear the basis for that handle, by the way) that Geno will very likely/most likely pass Tara during (or before?) the NC. I also think he is a safe bet to get to 1099 first.

It’s certainly possible that j66kicker’s scenario comes true and Tara tops Geno in the long run because she coaches longer than he does. And it is very possible she will coach longer. I believe she has a smoother job(I won’t use the word “easier as it sounds condescending). Instead of flying under the radar she seems to almost fly over the radar. She has an easier travel schedule for away games and, most likely for recruiting. Stanford does a lot of her recruiting for her as evidenced anecdotally by my neighbor Haley Jone’s commitment. Her reputation is that of a really great coach with virtually no aspersions cast her way - the epitome of a good role model.

Geno’s reputation on the other hand seems to be that of a really, really, really great coach with just the slightest teeny tiny edge to him. That has caused some unfounded aspersions to be hurled at him from two spots in the country - one in the mid-South and one in the mid-West. I don’t think he lets it bother him, but only he knows for sure.

Muffet is another threat to surpass Geno, albeit a lessor one. Her reputation is teetering right now, but will probably survive due to media suppression. The people at Notre Dumb have the NCAA and everyone associated with it, including ESPN and the rest of the sports media wrapped around their “little” finger and will protect and promote Muffet and her players to the max. Muffet has enough negative energy in her that she will fight as long as she can to surpass him in any way posssible; and this is probably his only record she has a shot at.

McGraw will need to coach 4-5 more seasons after Auriemma hangs 'em up to catch up to him. I tend to think she would also like to coach a bit longer out from under his shadow, perhaps to capture a title or two she left on the table during this recent UConn dynasty. There are more than a few other coaches I imagine who will toast Geno when he retires. :rolleyes:

I think Geno will not retire just for the sole reason of being the thorn that pricks MM from time to time. MM wants to portray a persona of cool, funny and mature. Except only pettiness shows up when she loses games which she thinks that are in her pockets. And she does not take jabs very well!

One interesting question: other than MM, will anyone get to 1000 wins?

Active coaches (yrs coaching) & wins at start of year (bold = D1):
  1. Yosinoff ... (41) 808
  2. Foley ... .. (31) 768
  3. Blair ... .. (33) 765
  4. Shirley .... (37) 748
  5. Fahey ... .. (32) 746
  6. Perretta ... (40) 746
  7. Bluder .. .. (34) 723
  8. Jeffers .... (35) 706
  9. Wilkes .. .. (32) 697
  10. Borseth .... (31) 691
  11. Tilley .. .. (41) 682
  12. Neal ... ... (24) 673 <- was NAIA coach, age ~70
  13. Durbin .. .. (33) 671
  14. McKeown .... (31) 670
  15. Moore ... .. (29) 670
  16. Bruno ... .. (32) 668
  17. Slifer .. .. (29) 665
  18. Davis ... .. (28) 654
  19. Fennelly ... (30) 645
  20. Presnell ... (31) 639

Yosinoff is 70. His teams have average 21 wins the last decade, which would mean 9-10 more years. Iffy.
Foley at 768 is off to a 2-6 start. He's not making much of a dent.
Blair is in his early 70s. He'd need to coach at least to 80 (seems unlikely).
Nancy Fahey, 60, would've done it had she stayed at Wash U, but wins are few and far between at Illinois.
Lisa Bluder (723 wins) at Iowa is only 57, and may have the best shot.

If Kim Mulkey coaches at Baylor until she is 70, she may make it. Mulkey currently has the 3rd best all-time winning percentage (behind Auriemma & Barmore) at 84.8%. Using her current total of 546 wins and her wins-per-season for the last 8 years (34.4), she can accomplish the feat in 13 years. A long period of time sustaining that rate of success. Mulkey is 56.

thanks hadnt looked at <600 wins folks
GP Gromacki at Amherst is also a contender, since he has even higher winning percentage than Geno thus far.
 
The thing I was thinking but forgot to say is that after a flurry of 1000s the last 18 months, we will have one more in 2021/22 and then the 2030s at the earliest.

Pretty remarkable.
