Geno not a fan of #UConnwomen being sent to Louisville for the NCAA Regional. Thinks Cardinals should be a No. 1 seed

John Altavilla ‏@jaltavilla 41m
Asked how he would feel if #UConnwomen sent [to Louisville] "That they [the committee] spent too much time at the Bourbon Bar."

It would be flat out wrong to have @UConnWBB and @UofLWBB be in same regional

I've sat through @NCAAWomensBKB mock brackets and the most important thing to me after coming out of those still always will be common sense

Sending the #1 team in the country to play at the arena of another highly ranked team that they have already faced three times (in all likelihood) makes no sense. UConn has earned the right for the easiest path, which is clearly Lincoln.

If Louisville gets only a 2 seed, who gets the 1 seed? And how will they, if not UConn, feel about playing at Louisville? If the NCAA makes the Cardinals a 1, that's not a problem. Louisville may go into the tourney with 4 losses, but if 3 are against UConn, they should be discounted somewhat. I think they are a 1.

Unfair to the Huskies, double unfair to the Cards, who, if they are a #2 will be the best of the #2s and would have a good fighting chance against any of the other #1s.
