Very nice article. It seems much more than a "Geno Mention" if no hyperbole

"Sun CEO Mitchell Etess and former GM Chris Sienko said Curt Miller had not been on their list as they extended their coaching search to replace the unsuccessful and sometimes taciturn Anne Donovan in December 2015. At one point, Sienko went over the possibilities with UConn coach Geno Auriemma and asked if he was missing anybody. Geno gave him a name of a guy who had impressed him at college, notably at Bowling Green.

His name was Curt Miller.

The sides connected late in the process. On the day of Miller's hiring, Sienko recounted how Miller was so passionate and so impressive that when he got up to go the bathroom, the Sun executives looked at each other and said, "This is the right guy."

He was the right guy."

That is quite an admission and Geno should win an award for best consultant.:rolleyes:

Also, the way Curt nailed  the interview process is very similar to how Geno nailed his if I recall the story.
