I thought the JSU coach was wonderful.  Really talented and dedicated.  Geno was spot-on about her program, and how there needs to be greater recognition of these programs by the power conferences.  Rather than taking advantage of them and dragging their teams to play OOC games away from their homes, big-time teams should be traveling to THEIR schools and putting on a show.  That's how to grow women's basketball.

I have a suggestion that probably won't go down well with a lot of you.  I can remember when NCAA regional tournaments were truly regional.  They were called East, South, Midwest and Far West.  There was something to be said about truly sectional tournaments, and then the best of each of the four sections would be represented on the final big stage.  Today, we're too focused on equality on a national stage right from the start.  As a result, we have a tournament with too many sacrificial lambs in the first round, forcing a #16 to travel far from home to face slaughter, all in the name of a national grid.

As to the audio at the post-game presser, I used the earphones on my laptop, and for some reason the audio was plenty loud.
