Message: [QUOTE="UcMiami, post: 2092191, member: 199"] Bags27 - thanks. I respect that opinion and agree. I am willing to give Justine another year because I think any new position and especially one where you are dealing with an iconic figure takes some adjustment period. I think it took Kerith a year to hit her stride and she was a serious sports junky. But I agree with the overall assessment of the 'female' reporter being added into every sports broadcast - though a lot of them are really serious reporters who are also seriously into sports. It has been a stepping stone for career advancement for many, while others just aren't that good as reporters and fade away. JordyG - I figured that was what you meant, and that is certainly true in terms of the outside general perception, especially from some serious rival fans. But I think it is also offset by lost of video out there of players from other schools who have gotten to work with him and pictures of Angel for example jumping on his back or Catchings and how she talks about the experience. And the distinction that so clearly is drawn between practice and game time and all other time - players messing with his hair as they walk of the stage after a press conference, or needling back and forth being picked up on the mikes. Just the off court joy and playfulness of the players amongst themselves is an indication that the experience is a good one. I get the sense that most of the transfers out, who you would think would be the ones least happy with Coach Geno, have anything but respect for the coaching staff - they may not have liked the experience or are leaving for other reasons, but they aren't taking parting shots or complaining about the system.
