Sorry wasnt sure how to thread title this correctly lol. But http://www.kval.com/sports/local/92154454.html "We had literally five natonal championship coaches that showed interest in our job and three of them would have taken it." could be just blowing smoke, but if true I wonder who the 3 national championship winning coaches were.
Geno Auriemma Pat Summit and Brenda Frese http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NCAA_Women's_Division_I_Basketball_Championship
That's funny. But I remember a short time ago, on ESPN, Bobby Knight said if he were in charge of any basketball team, mens, womens, pro, college, YMCA, whatever, that he would contact Geno Auriemma 1st.
Well why the hell didn't the Ducks go after Geno Auriemma or Pat Summit? Why didn't they go after the coach at St Mary's? I'm a huge Duck fan and Duck alum, usually I'm pretty positive on all things Ducks but this coaching search and selection was handled... ummm.... meh. We signed this guy for 7yrs? I know we can fire him before then but still that's a long contract for pretty much an unknown. This is the coach that is going to open a new arena and new era of Duck basketball? Uconn's coach would have been a better choice.
