Message: [QUOTE="and one, post: 3450689, member: 10475"] The short answer (admittedly I'm not sure what the question is) is that no, UConn WBB is not long overdue for a series of 3-26 seasons. Random events do relentlessly seek the mean frequency. When non-random factors are present, not so much. For Geno coached teams, this year represents a regression to the mean; Geno teams have operated for a long time in the range of 0 to six losses. We'll have either 3 or 4 losses this year. As time goes on new variables in the system will have to be factored in to result in a new normal. Geno retires. The number of excellent women bball players continues to rise and more college teams are able to recruit really good players. What comes after Geno is unknown but my guess is that they will be the equivalent of Carolina or Kentucky on the men's side. Not great every year but very good most years. [/QUOTE]
