111 wins..... and then a loss

You may have heard wrong.  People negatively recruit against UConn, too, even to make up claims like this.  Geno has had diverse women on his teams for a long time.

Quite possible, but I trust where it came from. Good PR doesn't simply undo bad actions.

There are far, far worse coaches - and players, administrators, etc. - in sports than Geno.

I believe that.

I mean, how many outsiders hated Al when he was at Marquette? He was seen as cocky, was accused of bending the rules, etc.

I'm sure. But I'm not going to cheer for a hypocritical asshat just because there are more hypocritical asshats.

I'm not "cheering" for him. I was merely observing how gracious he was in defeat, and I obviously respect the program he has built.

I get that, just saying why I'm not a fan.

From 2011

Auriemma says he still doesn't know why Pat Summitt, Tennessee's legendary coach, nixed their annual showdown in 2007. But he's heard the rumor that has circulated since: UConn used antigay recruiting tactics against the Lady Vol program. "If someone is saying that's the reason," Auriemma says, "they're more out of their minds than I think they are." Summitt declined to be interviewed for this story.
