I don’t mean the glitziest stuff, but we can provide an opportunity for you that no one else can. Why would hockey players come here to play if they ever visited our facility? But they do, don’t they?” "The key Auriemma said, is the people. UConn may not have the best facilities, but the people and the amount of effort they are willing to put into recruits are the real difference makers. “That’s what we’ve always prided ourselves on, the people that we have as opposed to the things that other people have that they’re offering recruits,” Auriemma said. “However, that can only go so far down the road. If we put the people that we have with the facilities and same things that other people have, as good as we are now, there’s no telling how good we can be, and that’s where you all come in.” [URL='http://www.courant.com/sports/uconn-huskies/hc-sp-uconn-coaches-road-show-20180604-story.html']UConn Coaches Road Show Kicks Off; Geno Center Of Attention[/URL] [/QUOTE]
