When asked if he participates in the team trivia games while on the road, Coach Auriemma said "I try not to because with some of the answers our guys give it really makes you question the education system in this country". LOL coach will never change.

Geno isn't alone in that assessment. The truth is: that applies to a few. I was blessed and bothered by students that exceeded my estimates and those that never came close. One comment does not apply to all.

Here's the full take:


“I think we got it right,” Auriemma said. “I think we got a better group of kids coming in that fill exactly the needs that we need filled. As long as you can say that, we filled some needs. … I think these five kids coming in next year are going to be able to contribute right away, some more than others.”

...

“It was a good day for us when we got all those letters. It was a great day for us, actually, and we’re putting together another one for the following year,” Auriemma said. “Two in a row. Two really good ones in a row. Our goal is to be bad for basketball again.”

There is a Genuine Risk if we all continue with this Unbridled discussion to Eclipse our discourse on WBB. As a result, I suggest Real Quiet relative to further references to racehorses. :rolleyes:

Well, it was originally intended to be a reference to the famous Alydar and Affirmed historic 1978 Tripple Crown races. Why the old dude, that we all know and love, added Bold Ruler to the mix is beyond me. Then others decided to ride along. So don't make me the Buckpasser on this. :D
___________________________________​

Here is a glimpse of their historic rivalry.

In 1978 Alydar dueled with Affirmed in all three legs of the Triple Crown he lost to his arch-rival by a combined total of less than two lengths. The 1978 Belmont Stakes, the third (and final) leg of the series, is considered by many as one of the most exciting races in the history of the sport. In that race, Alydar and Affirmed dueled side-by-side from the middle of the far turn all the way to the wire, with Affirmed barely holding on to win by a head to claim the Triple Crown.

Alydar just couldn’t get the best of Affirmed…until:

In their final meeting, Affirmed drifted in, forcing Alydar to be taken up on the backstretch. While Affirmed finished ahead of Alydar, the stewards decided to disqualify Affirmed from first to second, giving Alydar the final win.

Both are in the Horse Racing Hall of Fame.
