Geno Auriemma says the hardest part of coaching isn’t winning games but instead dealing with parents who believe their child should play 35 minutes every game
“My job is hard. It’s hard because, in the world that we live in today, parents are so delusional. Every one of them thinks their kid is better than Maya, better than Stewie, better than Paige, better than anybody.”
“They think they should play 35 minutes every single game. These kids are under so much pressure that if they don’t live up to that, they’re not having any fun.”
“What makes my job hard is trying to make sure these kids all understand that it can be a lot of fun, but everything has to be in perspective.”
“Sometimes the hardest part of my job is that we’ve all kind of lost perspective of how all this works and what it means.”
“Winning games and all that stuff, that’s not hard. It’s the other stuff that’s hard.”
On April 2, 1983, in one of the most famous Final Four games in history, Houston's 'Phi Slama Jama' defeated Louisville's ‘Doctors of Dunk’ 94-81 in a jamfest for the ages 🔥

@cbcwatcher I really don't think a Separtist Party belongs in the Federal Government! They are making laws that effect ALL Canadians but they have complete distain for ANYONE who is not French AND living in Quebec. So should be a Provincial Party ONLY
@cbcwatcher As a shareholder of Air Canada, I take offense to politicians interfering with publicly traded companies.
Be better. Do your jobs. Do something that will benefit Canadians.
It is hard to believe that in such a close game with only a few seconds remaining to the game that none of the officials were looking at the coaches to see if they wanted a timeout. Pure Madness. It's almost like they never officiated a close NCAA game before. #MarchMadness
Two huge misses by the referees cost Santa Clara against Kentucky.
The first was a clean strip that led to two Otega Oweh free throws. The second? Not acknowledging a timeout by the Santa Clara head coach ahead of the game-tying buzzer beater.
