Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 2633813, member: 44"] So, put me in with the group who really didn’t hear his comments that way at all. It was a bit of a perfect storm with a very good UConn team, low D1 St. Francis team, and a decision by their coach to generate a lot of possessions. I think Geno’s comments expressed his amazement at that combination of facts and the result he produced on the court. Geno took his foot off the gas as much as possible. He called off the press and slowed down the tempo. You could see that the team struggled with that. I’m not sure what more you want him to do. For what it’s worth, I’m not critical about the St. Francis coach’s decision to take a shot at winning the game rather than minimize the margin by which his team lost. It was a gamble that resulted in a record-setting beat down, but it least it arose out of trying to compete. [/QUOTE]
