Message: [QUOTE="#12in21, post: 4700945, member: 10763"] During the freshman year of Paige, Nika and Aaliyah Geno said that they ( that class) really revitalized the staff. It's possible prior to that time he, atleast in the back of his mind, was considering hanging it up. Nika was quoted at one point, I believe during her sophomore season, responding to a comment that Geno made about considering retiring and spending his time playing golf, that that is not happening because he had promised her that he would be there throughout her UCONN career. I doubt he has made that promise to others in the following classes. As long as any of them (Paige, Nika and Aaliyah) are around I don't see him retiring, In Paige's case that could be as many as three more seasons, Aaliyah and Nika potentially two. Most assuredly he will continue to recruit and bring in talented players that fit the UCONN mold right up until the end of his career. Whether he is there to shepherd them through their entire careers or he has set the table for his replacement will only be known down the road, but in either case he will not relent in keeping UCONN at the top of wcbb. I agree with others that Geno and CD will go out together. Clearly some class(es) will not graduate with Geno and CD as their coaches, IMO, it will definitely not be Paige, Nika and Aaliyah's.
