Message: [QUOTE="The CDR-Ret, post: 3628710, member: 10751"] The first FIVE freshmen recruiting class, although they did not make the Ring of Honor, earned Geno's & CD's program many firsts: Conference regular season champions three years in a row (ZERO before their Freshman year for UCONN); two conference tournament champions (ZERO before them for UCONN); four straight twenty victories for each season (ZERO before them for UCONN); first Final Four appearance - Sophomore year (ZERO before them for UCONN); four straight NCAA tournament appearances (ZERO before them for UCONN); 101 wins (versus 28 losses) which would not be broken for three more years; The total of 101 wins was more than the coaches had (in their 11 previous years) before Geno & CD. They also had more wins in two of their years than in Geno & CD's first three years. The team two years after they graduated began the trend of earning 30 or more wins a season.... [/QUOTE]
