Yup - I think SNY has exceeded my expectations. I love CPTV and what they did for Uconn, and I thought they were very good as they ramped up their programming and technical capabilities. But SNY has really stepped up the game. The production values are excellent and when you compare it to what is coming out of other regional networks on the women's side it is like watching college coverage vs. HS coverage. The on air talent that they have assembled is good and they have kept the hometown feel with two former Huskies. And the camera work is excellent.
I like Kerith on the Geno show and sideline stuff, and this special was GREAT and I am looking forward to all the others. (I would enjoy seeing one of these shows without Geno, just former players and maybe some former assistants dishing on him and the program.)
My only minor criticism is with the pre/HT/post game studio - I feel it is a little 'scripted' or just hasn't quit got a flow. I like having the shows as opposed to the fundraising, but ...
I would also love to see a program outside the studio with bits on former players doing other things - 5 minutes each with folks who were part of the program and are now pursuing 'real life' reflecting back on what they got out of their experience.

UConn has better coverage than most men's teams. Stop and think about that. It really is a first class production.

I like the studio stuff, mostly because I like Kara. She was good to begin with and gets better every game. I also can't help but remember her as a freshman. She has come a long way. Listening to her as a studio analyst brings a smile to face everytime.
