Message: [QUOTE="WiseWillie, post: 5297016, member: 13141"] This thread about who would take over following the departure of Geno and CD is more than a little premature. Geno is at UConn at least until Sarah leaves for the W. Much can happen in the interim. As for Shea, she has done a great job in turning around a program that was struggling and is now ranked in the top 25 of the NET rankings and is a steady participant in the NCAA Tournament. A recent study published in the Wall Street Journal by an Indiana University professor ranked the top ten men's and women's basketball programs by their "enterprise value" based on revenues, cash flows and making financial projections. Not surprising Duke and North Carolina topped the men's side while what was surprising was Vanderbilt's women's program was #7 of the top ten and beat out programs like USC and Louisville. * While some may conjecture Shea could be a possible replacement for Geno when he decides to hang it up, she certainly might consider Nashville a little more dynamic environment than Storrs and stay right where she is. *P.S. (The Tar Heels men's basketball enterprise value was estimated at $378 million and Blue Devils at $370 million. For women, UConn had the highest value at $95 million, South Carolina was second at $86 million and Vanderbilt at #7 was $58 million. ) [/QUOTE]
