Hey welcome back! I missed this thread. I put together my own version in it’s absence which I will let die now that the original is back up and running!

So, how about a prediction as to when Geno catches Tara?

Geno beat Tara by 10 so far this year and could make it 12-13 by the end of the season. If he beats her by 8 next year, he'll pass her in total.

Gorgonzola? Ouch the systems spell check is changing it...:)
 
Thoughts on CViv:

Did the players vote to decline the WNIT, or did CViv make a unilateral decision?

Someone suggested that she may have done so to ensure she coaches next year—to get to 1,000. Thoughts?

I thought the kids would have liked more games plus the possibility of playing in NYC.

@vowelguy - Any prediction on when/if Geno passes Tara?
 
I just did a quick look and am amazed that Geno made up 9/10 games at this point this year. Stanford is at home against Gonzaga today and then potentially Mizzou on Monday. If Tara gets by those two, Louisville is lurking, then probably Baylor. She could win anywhere from 0-4 games here, not such a great track record in the Final Four. Geno could possibly gain another 1-6 games on her this year, closing the gap to 8, 7, 6 or even 5 games, which next year becomes highly probable to pass her.

I agree but there are a lot of variables in play. If Stanford plays as difficult a nonconference schedule as they did this year, and if they lose at least 5 games in the Pac-12 as well, it could be really close.

It's my understanding that UConn plays road games next year at Notre Dame, Louisville, and Baylor. UConn will be the decided underdog in South Bend, and it would be hard to call UConn the favorite in either of the other two games at this point, considering the loss of 3 out of the 6 regular rotation players.

It's going to be a race to see who gets to 1098 first: Tara or Geno. Geno has been closing the gap just about every season of late. Obviously, Stanford plays in a much more difficult conference, where 3-5 losses per season are not out of the question, during both the regular season or in the conference tournament.

It is more than Tara plays in a more difficult conference. Generally, we go deeper in the tournament than Stanford does.
 
Stanford was scheduled to play 30 regular season games this year just as was UConn. They are starting their third of a three game tournament in Florida against Hawaii in a few minutes.

However, their recent home game against Ohio State was canceled due to the fire smoke effect. Now, depending on their seeding, they may get a potential extra game to play in the PAC-12 tournament.

In any case, that’s one less possible win for Tara this year. I don’t feel sad for her on that score, because, by my count, she has coached 1,284 games to reach her current total of 1041(81.1%) while Geno has only had 1,168 opportunities to reach his current total of 1032(89.2%). By the way, it took Pat 1306 games to reach 1098(84.1%).

Just one more side story in what should be a very interesting season.
 
VanDerveer coaches her 1284th game as HC tonight against Hawaii. It will be interesting to follow their race next season to catch Summitt's all-time wins mark. On paper, Auriemma's torrid pace (36.5 wins per year - last 8 seasons) may be just enough to catch VanDerveer (30.5 wins per year, same period) before passing Summitt. His teams these next couple of years will have to go FF-title game deep to do it.

Regardless if he gets to 1098 wins ahead of VanDerveer, Auriemma's supporters will be able to say he accomplished the feat in fewer seasons and fewer total games as HC than both her and Summitt.

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...
