Stewie Hug when she came out of the game

[papanimmer]

When Stewie came out of the ND game she high fived all the people on the bench after giving the asst coaches hugs. When she got to a guy in a suit, she gave him a great big/long hug. Someone that has gone above and beyond helping her develop to the player she is?

I noticed that as well. I'm pretty sure he got to climb the ladder to cut the net. So, that would indicate that he is connected to the team (and also he was sitting on the bench).

I think he is one of the managers - two possibilities - a senior? or the manager who spends the most time rebounding/playing defense in individual work for her?

It seems as though the consensus is that there is a good chance the team will be better next year. But in reality, it doesn't matter. What does matter is how we compare with everyone else we will be playing. So that's the analysis that is required and will be part of the fun of the off season.

Just remember when doing comparisons, we have Geno, Chris, Shea, & Marisa , and they don't!

I think that was Kevin Demille (http://www.uconnhuskies.com/sports/w-baskbl/mtt/kevin_demille_928093.html). His official title is "Asst. Director of Women's Basketball Administration".

I believe he was a manager when he was a student and then was hired onto the staff by Geno after he graduated, I remember reading an article about it a while back.

EDIT: Here's an article from last year: http://www.nj.com/times-sports/index.ssf/2014/04/notre_dame_high_product_demill.html

I'm pretty sure he's been around UConn for many years. I think he was a student back when Caroline Doty was. He started as a practice player and has made his way up to graduate assistant.

Impressive... Demille sounds like he can potentially have a nice head coaching career set to start in the not so distant future... He's pretty much getting groomed to become one...

I believe that he also went to the Olympics and Worlds with Geno and his coaching staff as a video coordinator. That guy must be good!

I think DeMille is basically our version of what Achonwa is to ND.
