Message: [QUOTE="veryolddog, post: 4155647, member: 129"] So far, former UConn basketball players taking coaching positions do not have a stellar record in Div I baskeball. I would tend to go for Shea but that remains to be seen. Right now, there appears to be no one who can replace Geno. First, UConn would never pay what it takes to replace Geno with the likes of Jeff Walz, or Dawn Staley. They are going to look for a bargain a lot less than what they pay Geno. (there are probably those within UConn and the State who hope Geno does retire so they won't have to pay the millions he makes.) So what they get is going to be a lot less in quality than the present staff. Shea has the fire in her belly, but not the record to prove her worth. She knows the system approach. With her own brand of the system, she could be a success at UConn. Only time will tell. However, when will we ever see a regular season again? [/QUOTE]
