| Why should Geno take a job at a men's program? He is dominating his sport, and there appears to be nobody to challenge his program right now. He's just going to keep winning championships and laughing all the way to the bank. Geno would be an idiot to leave UCONN.
However, anybody comparing him to John Wooden is outside of their mind.

| UTM men's team would beat this UCONN Lady Husky team...Handily...
They have just been adding on to the WOMEN'S RECORD ever since they passed 70...ESPN has been comparing their record to UCLA's and it's just not the same thing...

Back then UCLA plowed through a couple bottom feeders out west before advancing to the Final Four. The "West" region was comprised exclusively of left coast teams.
I also love how no one dare mentions Sam Gilbert when discussing UCLA basketball's glory days. | |

| I think Wooden helped Darick Rose's (SP?) entrance exam. Tack another 6 games onto Bruce Pearl's suspension. | |

| I think it's funny when people say UConn has the all-time division 1 basketball win streak.
There's absolutely zero parity in women's basketball. Not really impressed.

It's an impressive accomplishment whether you want to admit it or not, whether you like womens basketball or not. | |
