Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 3016958, member: 7492"] I think the vast majority of this board is making the point to you that Jen is not or should not be considered a serious candidate for the UConn job when Geno retires unless she makes some serious runs within the NCAA Tournament. Her last few years at Hartford were mediocre at best, she went to a GW program that was the top Program in the A10 at a school that puts a lot of resources in it. She has not done a great job (yet). Also, her successor at Hartford has them baxk at the top. Geno’s Coaching Tree for D1 is not good. Carla is by far the most successful but having her jump from D3 to UConn is extreme. To me, Shea is the current heir designate and if Marissa has lots of success at BU, she should also be considered. As the point of this thread is really Tenn or another top program that needs a coach now, Genos successor is a moot point. As noted, WCBB is in its “toddler” or “pre-teen” phase so other than UConn or Tenn, there are no other basketball powers/titans. Stanford, ND and Baylor are the 2nd tier, each with 2 NCs and coaches who are greatly respected. Some programs like Duke, LSU, Georgia, Purdue, Texas like to think they’re elite but they are not. Their the 3rd tier. Up and coming programs are Ore St, SC, MSU and Louisville. I don’t see any of these leaving their programs they built when they already make as much or more than Holly. [/QUOTE]
