Message: [QUOTE="oldude, post: 5179368, member: 7511"] I’m pretty sure that Geno’s epiphany occurred following the 2017-2018 season. During that season, Geno had several public blowups which were primarily directed at a talented freshmen class headed up by Megan Walker. Ultimately 3/4 players in that class transferred (AEH, Gordon & Coombs) with Walker opting out of her senior season to turn pro. There was no immediate eligibility for transfers or NIL money, so any player who transferred had to think long and hard about leaving. I remember seeing a noticeable change in Geno’s public comments about his players during the following season. I suspect that CD and perhaps others had made the point to Geno that you can’t treat players like that anymore or you’ll drive them all away. [/QUOTE]
