Favorite Coach - not your team coach

[bennyskid]

Tara. Had a conversation with one of our coaches regarding who was hardest to prepare for. He didn't answer, "Stanford". He answered, "Tara".

Geno. Forget the coaching. I just love watching his interviews.

Aaron Roussell - Bucknell

He used to coach at my alma mater, University of Chicago. I was covering the team for the school paper for some of those years. He's done a heck of a job at Bucknell. If you have some time to kill this a good interview -

Other than that, I'll echo some of the mentions of Tara.

And then some that I like/admire their work from the ACC:
Katie Meier
Sue Semrau
Wes Moore
Kenny Brooks

Rueck and Walz. Graves and Tara right behind. I also like Katie Meier. Her players like playing for her.

Amy Williams @ Nebraska.

 

[SVCBeercats]

Jeff Walz and Tara VanDerveer

My favorite coach, not named Vic, is Dawn Staley. Hard choice between Dawn and Geno but Dawn feeling for the players won me over, as I have said before she is a special lady!

Fabbri

Fabbri of Quinnipiac, she takes no gruff from anyone. Reminds me a little bit of Geno in his early days.

Geno is a fan of Tricia Fabbri and her team

Kim Mulkey. Yes she’s a bit unhinged at times, but for the most part she is a good person and does want the best for her team and women’s basketball. She’s tough, but never too tough to give praise to the other teams she’s playing. I give her credit for that.

I’m also a fan of Gary Blair. He’s always calm and collected and has a special relationship with his players.

I have to say Geno and not because we're on a UCONN board. I sit 4 rows behind the opposing head coach, so I see them from a very close vantage point. I also loved Pat Summitt when she was with us and I like Yolett McCuin and Stephanie White. If those 2 coaches are given time, they will win at their respective institutions. Throw in Felisha Legette-Jack and Tara.

Doug Bruno, Harry Perretta, Tara V, Muffet, Jose Fernandez. I respect Vic and Dawn but don’t “know” them as well as the others.

Wait a minute; you're not Dame Judy Dench?

 

[Bigboote]

Till Texas A&M became the Chennedy Carter show with extras, I would have said Gary Blair.

Now I'd probably say Vic with Doug Bruno and Jeff Walz close behind.

Buffalo’s coach...hands down

I would like to say the Abilene Christian coach. Some of you might not agree, but there can be no question about her not being Good e nough.
