Message: [QUOTE="Cuango, post: 5299403, member: 3834"] Always amazed at those who push former players with zero coaching experience as preferred Geno replacements. I just don’t get it. There are two, and only two, former players who have been and are continuing to be successful as major college basketball coaches. They are Shea Ralph and Carla Berube. I’d be happy with either though my first choice would be Shea. I am aware that there have been others who coached in big time colleges however, none have been a success at their respective colleges. I realize that is blunt and some might disagree but that is the way it is. I believe if people want a UConn player to take over, there is only Shea or Carla. Now there are obviously many other coaches out there, some known and some not. I just want someone who can hopefully keep our beloved Huskies on top and hiring someone who’s never coached before to take over the premiere program of all time just doesn’t seem rational.
