Message: [QUOTE="MD#12Fan, post: 3022170, member: 8636"] How about a little banter about great coaches. (2nd attempt, tried a couple of weeks ago) *qualities that make them great *accomplishments that inspire us to consider them great *any resume smudges or negatives *what’s the future hold *psychologist *judge of talent *builder of program Can you remember a better game-planner, strategizer, or adjuster as a coach than Bill Belichick? Whatever you think of him otherwise. This aspect of coaching is intriguing me right now with Geno. I think he has the chess pieces to win this year, but I’m not convinced that he’s making the right moves. I will love to be proven wrong. I want to see what he does. Who has ever built a better program than Geno Auriemma? My problem with that is that I believe bold moves have to be made in battle that supersede the best interests of the program. I believe the behemoth program lumbers down the road methodically, when real dexterity and deftness is required. When he was fighting with everything he had to qualify for the Big East tournament, he had to coach that way. We need a little guerrilla warfare. Right now we’re lined up in formation in front of our enemy like the British army. Again, I’ve said, all conversations begin with, “ we have the best players....” So let’s get them in the best position to win. We’re the only team with 2 top 12 projected WNBA draft picks. We have a #1 recruit in the USA. We have Meg. Was she a #1? [/QUOTE]
