Message: [QUOTE="The CDR-Ret, post: 5350182, member: 10751"] Looking at records with no peer, but Pat Summit is closest in several of these categories during Geno's 36 straight NCAA tournaments (2020 was the one cancelled and Dawn put up a banner, OUCH! 😎 ): 1) 31 straight Sweet 16's, with a record of 29-3 all time {current streak}; {Pat had 27 straight}. 2) 16 straight wins in the Elite 8 {current streak}, with a record of 24-5 all time in the Regional Championship games (that is the Elite 8 after all, eh?); {Pat had 5 straight, and four straight twice (not counting the streak of 5)). 3) A record of 12-1 in NCAA championship games; the only place he has a shaky record is in the National Semi-final games at 13-11. {Pat was 8-5 in Championships (UConn beat UTenn 4 times); Pat was 16-6 in the regional finals, and 13-3 in the National Semi-Final games - the only spot Pat has on Geno with a better record or more wins; just need to make the NCAA finals this year to have more wins in the National Semis... That would also gain this edition 40 games, and Geno & CD could be 1290-165 (88.66%) to Pat's 1098-208 (84.07%) (4 others are between them, but all have less than 800 wins). Hopefully, the Big O wants to commit to UConn to extend some of the above, and break the 100+ games won in a row, that started with the 2024-2025 edition of the Huskies in the game after they lost to the evil Orange Empire eight days before Valentine's Day!!!! Go Huskies!!! [/QUOTE]
