Message: [QUOTE="ucmiami2, post: 5247955, member: 13062"] It isn't just her. The school made a serious commitment to her to invest heavily in the WBB program with upgrades to facilities and staffing. It definitely takes a leader to generate the buzz, but a leader can only do so much. That is a problem with a lot of the HC jobs out there - the schools is willing to pay a decent wage, but hopes you'll be happy with whatever is happening over on that side of the building, because they are spending all their time focused on other more important things. Geno was lucky in his timing in taking what was a bottom of the barrel job, with no facilities, no glamor. But WBB was on the cusp, and money was beginning to pour in from broadcasters, and CT fans were starved for a 'home' team. And the school was investing heavily in sports and some of that was trickling down to the women. [/QUOTE]
