Geno is the best recruiter in WCBB history; I don't know about the best coach .. the game against UCF is a prime example, eh? The BY is the best way to get him back on track!

A message board about UCONN women's basketball is a place for fans to get vicariously involved in the game, and it's very doubtful that Geno is getting tips here.
Whoa. You telling me that coach Geno or the coaching staff aren't waking up everyday reading the Yard seeking out what we have to say about offensive and defensive game plans? ;) :)

Thank goodness the entire board does not believe in complete submission. Yes, he is a great coach, but he is not infallible, no one is. No one is. As a fan it’s OK, to raise questions related to the coaching staff. That’s one of the reasons rooting for a team can be interesting. However, I draw the line there and I don’t like it when folks go after the girls, beyond basic skills. The staff, have any it, without being personal.

He’s the greatest coach in the history of the game period. Men’s or Women’s basketball. Even NBA teams have wanted to hire him.

So no more thoughtcrimes against Big Geno? This should be a boring board of homogeneity. This board should not share the fate of "6079 Smith W."

Geno can handle what anyone on here says/thinks. And he LOVES taking the focus and pressure off his team so let the armchair coaches have fun.

Don’t know, nobody does except the teams that were interested. Here’s one of many articles with quotes, reports, etc. Bleacher Report reported on it a couple years ago. Just Google Geno Auriemma, NBA rumors.

Do what I assume some BYers do consistently: If you don't like threads "criticizing" Geno, Ignore the thread. It does wonders, so I've heard. :rolleyes:

Referring to the title of the thread...
One of the unwritten rules of the board
is that we may suggest, but not directly
tell another poster what to do or think

I think it's a good and appropriate tradition

First of all: Welcome to the board! It’s clear you’re new and don’t understand what we do here all year long…..

I lose to my neighbor in HORSE all the time. He’s a beast. I miss too many bunnies.

Anyway, I called Geno last night and again this morning to ensure he understands what he needs to do. I think he got it. So, I’ll take your advice and leave him alone until after the game. Then he’s mine.

One of the beautiful things about sports is the ability to ask "what if this happened" questions. Most of us have had these conversations with parents and/or friends since we could bounce a ball. Everyone, no matter what their experience level, is equal in their ability to voice their own opinions. Can't imagine any sport without this type of back and forth.

Well we expect BYers to have opinions of course, but Geno’s decisions are informed by facts and info that we mere mortals do not have access to. So, I hate getting in his lane.

How can anyone deny that GENO is the best coach in Women's college basketball when he is only 3 wins away from having 1000 (that's thousand) more wins than losses. 1,149 WINS-149 LOSSES. I can only think of two other coaches that come close; Pat Summit and Tara Van Deveer. Period!!
