The rumor at the time was that she wanted Harry to teach her the motion offense (she could hardly ask Geno!). Here's an article that describes Harry and Pat's relationship.

"Not that it was something we would run 100 percent, but I liked the fact that it is motion with some structure. It teaches players to read, and it's really taught us to play better without the basketball. . . . I think it's teaching us how to play basketball and not just run plays."

''Pat thinks he is going steady with her,'' Auriemma said. ''He calls everybody. He called me five times the other day. I'm trying to tell him it's over, you are out of the tournament, go home.''
