Geno on Mo'ne Davis this weekend

[HoopsFan21]

Found this recent article on Mo'ne Davis while trying to find the Kelly Faris story.

"I might even tell Tonya that she’s coming into our locker room and I’m going to give her some UConn gear to take home. I’m warning everyone out there, that I will be cheating my butt off once I get to Philly."

Like no one will ever take that statement as gospel truth.

I guess it's now common knowledge that it was Vandy that made the Mo'ne complaint? John A. seemed to talk about it as if it was common knowledge. Gotta love Geno though. Yeah, we've been slapped with a violation, but hell if that stops me from saying hey to Mo'ne and giving her some UConn gear.

I hope Mo'ne is in the stands having a great time....and I hope the same for 2016'er
Felicia Aiyeotan...6'9" kid from national #1 Neumann-Goretti in Philly. Geno went to see
her play a few days ago.

Geno should hold out for a real car like a Yukon instead of buying a used Chevy from the Mo'ne commercial. Not sure why he's interested in someone who throws and shoots like a girl. Okay well maybe a girl who shoots like KML and Stewie and Maya and DT and Sue and Shea and Sveta and Kerry and . . . . and I guess a bunch of others.

And what is a 50 mph fastball? Even with a frozen shoulder I think I could match that, but I wouldn't label it a fastball. And if only you really could cheat your butt off; but it sounds like a great slogan for a swingers' weight-loss club.

First of all the complaint is stupid. Shes in junior high and not high school. I was under the understanding that if kids in junior high and grammer school can talk to college coaches but no recruiting just Hi congrats etc. The NCAA imo has no jurisdiction on slapping Genos hand. They should be slapping who ever complained and tell them the rules. This is very petty.

It was 70mph, from 46'. Equivalent to MLB high-90s. Smoke.

The article said a 50 mph fastball thrown to Albert Pujols. I don't think anyone is crazy enough to throw a marshmallow to Albert from 46' unless they are in body armor.

Geno after the game, on Mo'ne being there:

"I wish she would have come up during the 5-minute mark, I would have got her in."

Geesh she's really has a desire to play for the Huskies. Hope her game leads up to her getting a schollie

I hope Danny K got a pic with her.

I loved his comment to Stewie at the Duke game a few years back. We were pounding Duke, as usual. Stewie was considering Duke and UConn. Geno turned to her in the stands and told her that they--Duke--could really use her. We all know what her decision was.

She had the wisdom not to wear her UCONN shirt - keep Geno out of trouble, ha!

She had the wisdom not to wear her UCONN shirt - keep Geno out of trouble, ha!

And she had the wisdom to wear a Patriots shirt

And she had the wisdom to wear a Patriots shirt

Better than an Eagles shirt.
