According to Geno few things work with the present generation of kids, but certainly not the old ways of motivating kids.

Geno did this last year with the freshman class. It seemed to work a little bit, Stef and Bria both did pretty well and they seem very close as a class. (Always cheering Michaela and Lauren on when they are in, etc.) It's probably his way of getting them to focus their energy on proving him wrong and bonding as a class.

I think singling out individuals may work better than banning the whole team.

...well, they were going up against STONY Brook. Not much of a measuring stick. Now, a win against BU? That would be impressive.

It's not been a very good year for the Hawks.

Coaches who lockout the entire team are making a strong statement that the team is no way near playing the way it should and that has to stop. Now it's up to the team to show they merit getting their locker room back. The UH team earned it back. It's open whether they will continue to earn it.

Strong statement only if the kids buy into it. Geno seems to think that possibly no longer happens. I'm sure for some it still does, but many coaches are noting a generational shift as regards the effectiveness of the message.

I think this is still very effective. Life lessons are being taught. Don't pay the mortgage, the rent, the car - deal with the repo man. What's it called - elevated sanctions? lol

I think banning a team from their lockers is a really stupid thing to do.

I don't know how it is in Hartford, but at UCONN the locker room is practically a lounge. There are TVs and other amenities in there. So to get kicked out might sting a bit.
