Message: [QUOTE="skilz, post: 2701730, member: 7222"] Geno is and will always be a great coach. What is changing in the past years is the generation of these recruits. This is a generation of participation trophy's, awards, etc., and let's not forget social media. Young kids these days receive a lot of attention (all about [B]ME[/B] and what [B]I [/B]can do) and unfortunately, expect the same in college. Many current and incoming recruits for all programs are talented, however, if they are not strong and willing to adapt, they may not make it in some of the great programs - UConn. Great coaches will not change their philosophy, but should they? Should they find different ways to accommodate the current generation? We all know that tough, hard work pays off, but will the current generation be able to understand that and give the program a chance to work? [/QUOTE]
