Holly Tanneyhill (SP??) of Swish Appeal.

She added a lot to a very informative show. And, quoting Joe Pesci in My Cousin Vinny, "cute, too".

 

[Icebear]

Thanks, guys.

The only way to describe me is that I like winners. My favorite teams win and they win often.
- A graduate of Georgia Southern University, I am a certified athletic trainer specializing in rehabilitation and strength and conditioning. I have an MBA in Human Resources and Finance from the University of Hartford.
- I am a native of Connecticut but have spent 7 years living in Maryland, Colorado, and Georgia. There is something about New England that can't be replicated in any part of the world so I returned 5 years ago and think it's the best decision I ever made.
- I am a writer based in Connecticut covering UConn Women's Basketball and the Connecticut Sun.
- I follow and offer my unsolicited opinion on many teams including the Celtics, Patriots, UConn Men, UConn Football, Lakers, and the state of sports in general. If coaches just listened to the things that come out of my mouth they would win at least 10% of the time. I am a genius that the world is just covering... Plus I'm modest too!

One of the better Geno shows. The coach was certainly on his game tonight. Funny and informative and I even learned something new.

I didn't know the advantage of tipping an inbounds after a made basket.

 

[Blakeon18]

I learned something too. He talked about trying to tip the ball out of bounds after a made UConn basket when the opponent
was inbounding. If no steal is made but we smack it out of bounds, it means that the opponent can't run the baseline anymore and must remain stationary when passing the ball in...makes it easier to harass the passer if she can't move.

Blake - Glad to see I wasn't the only one. I've probably watched 800 basketball games and never got that.

 

[Icebear]

That was the error made by Heather couple of games ago. I believe it is the responsibility of the official to inform the player of the change.

dead ball... and the only time subs can come in the game

Interesting comments from Auriemma on the officiating. Once again I had the feeling that he was backing off from some maybe not so wise comments from an earlier Geno show. Maybe a responsible adult had a word with him.

On the Geno show after the ND loss he dumped on the fans and on the officials. Last week he backed off a bit about the fans and this week he was almost complementary stating that in his 27 years at UConn he could only think of a couple of games where officiating affected the outcome and he admitted that UConn probably had as many bad calls go their way as there were bad calls against them.

calling out the refs normally happen after a loss.

BTW one ref in the Syracuse game is a (greater) Hartford resident
