Message: [QUOTE="Blakeon18, post: 3375667, member: 35"] When Geno visited Norman to see Stacy Hansmeyer practice under the tutelage of Sherri he watched for a while and then went up to Sherri and asked her 'do you know how good you are?' Referring to her coaching ability not the quality of her team. He did in fact recommend to the Oklahoma AD that he hire Sherri...straight out of high school...and he did. I believe they were very close to dumping the women's basketball team at that point. Sherri brought them to a high level but not the apex and it does seem they have fallen off somewhat in latter years. I don't believe OU has ever beaten UConn though they have played many times. Highlight was 2002 NC game...UConn over OU 82-70 [maybe?]. An olde fashioned three point play by Dee sealed it with a minute or so to go. Bar trivia question: how many treys did UConn hit in that game? I think the answer is zero....with many attempts. Hit a normal percentage and the game would have been a blowout....uhhh...like the semi-final win over LadyVol Herself...by around 25 or 30...with Geno letting up in the second half [/QUOTE]
