Quote:Auriemma, who could tie Summitt's Final Four achievement with a championship, maintained a war of words toward his adversary for years, but Pat never responded.
Yet another reason to love Geno.

That's a pretty bogus way to characterize their falling out. Wasn't Pat the one who filed a complaint with the NCAA about supposed recruiting violations committed by Geno and broke off their series?

It goes back further than that. Here's a 2004 article:

(It's very difficult to navigate to the jump, but it's worth the effort. The second part has good quotes.)

Is that the Brown Palace...downtown? Great old hotel and big cattlemen's hangout, especially during the Stock Show in January.

I can't tell if this is stuff the reporter picked up from the coaches, or if he's just putting up his own theories. The idea that you keep Griner under the basket by assigning her to guard Tinkle, though, strikes me as daft. Let's hope Kim Mulkey's gone mad.
Maybe I misunderstand you, but it seems clear to me. Stanford will assign Jos to guard Brittney. No one said that Brittney would be assigned to guard Jos. I expect Brittney to guard either Nneka or Chiney, or maybe just stay in the center in some kind of zone.
