Message: [QUOTE="HopJim, post: 4823877, member: 6986"] While you can never overrate Geno and CD, not sure I always put as much weight on the "experience" of the rest of the staff. Geno has the past few years taken a different approach than many of his peer coaches in staff building. When you look at the teams that brought in "transplant staffs" like Texas and LSU or new staffs like Shea put together at Vandy, they gained quick results with a mix of young/experienced, high energy, creative staff members that had a track record of success. This paralled Geno's staff from the championship years with younger coaches like Shea Raplh and Marissa Mosely mixing well with CD. While Geno's current staff has years of experience and a UConn background, their history as head coaches was average to poor. This is a year where UConn's overall coaching will be key so we will see.
