Message: [QUOTE="ivrytontusker, post: 2079663, member: 6648"] I think there is a legitimate question about Muffet's ability to get the players ready for a big game. The team came out shockingly flat in the 2011 title game, which they should have won. However, they lost to better teams in 2012 (Baylor with Griner) and 2014 and 2015 (us). That's an interesting point. Nobody really knows. Again, though, the 2011 title game performance raises major questions about Muffet. But I think Muffet will probably coach longer than Geno, which could reveal some things. If she can win more titles in a Geno-less college basketball landscape everything might look different. What are you talking about? Her shot at Geno? I think many ND types resent Geno, not only because he usually beats ND but because a couple years ago he blamed ND for the Big East falling apart. I agree Muffet's comments in 2014 were absurd, but that hardly makes her a "back-stabber" or "opportunist." I've heard that she and Geno are on better terms now. It's one thing to compare coaches but I don't know why UConn fans want to dump on 'rival' coaches without evidence. She's not the only other coach to resent UConn and Geno's success. On the other hand, she and Geno used to hang out on the Jawsey Shore: [MEDIA=twitter]497519661211467776[/MEDIA] I wonder how many coaches have a better win% vs. Geno, though (given a certainly number of games played)? Probably not too many. [/QUOTE]
