Message: [QUOTE="Fairfield Fan, post: 3529319, member: 6911"] McGraw's record laid out in the article is certainly a record of a coaching great. Yes, she was less than gracious about Coach Geno. We might recall that when Pat Summitt retired, Coach McGraw said that "the class has gone out of the game," an indirect slap at Coach Geno. But you don't have to be nice or classy to be great. I just watched a documentary about Ted Williams. He was the greatest hitter who ever lived, but he could be a nasty guy. And that's OK. I think the key datapoint highlighted in Adamec's article is the one pointing out that Muffet McGraw won more games against Coach Auriemma's Connecticut teams than any other coach in the country. It's OK to salute a tremendous and worthy competitor. And that is what Muffet McGraw was. [/QUOTE]
