Male, played BB from grade school thru Junior high. After high school joined the Army in 73, while overseas my shop would play pick-up games, both men and woman on the same team. The woman who played were very competitive and some very physical. While stationed in The Netherlands, AFN showed the 95 WCBB NC game. It was the first WCBB game I had ever seen, UCONN reminded me of the basketball that I played when I was in school and thought of them as the woman's version of the UNLV Running Rebels teams under Tark the Shark. I used to watch the men's game before, but now they try to emulate the NBA game, while now many of the teams in WCBB play the game the way it was meant to be played, A TEAM sport. Because of the 95 game, I became a UCONN fan and would watch them whenever they were on TV and now with the internet I watch every game. There are only a few college BB coaches that I have ever thought of as great during my lifetime, John Wooden, Bobby Knight, Jerry Tarkainian, Pat Summit, and Geno. What did all of them have in common, that BB is a team sport.
