Some fans worry that Geno may occasionally upset or alienate a player with his trademark sarcastic digs. No need. It's crystal clear to the team that there's nobody more supportive & fiercely loyal than coach Auriemma. Understatement... he's a motivator.

[superdude]

Geno is going to have a grand time playing Azzi and Paige off each other to get under their skins to compete. Especially Paige. Paige should be in a small broil for the SC game tomorrow.

[paulaa]

"We really needed somebody to make them today" 😂

[musicman]

It's early. If they still look like this in 2022 then you can start to worry. Actually, not that much because we know it's all about winning 6 straight games in March. That's it. The days of undefeated seasons are over; there are way too many talented teams and coaches out there now.

[shortaybrown]

Azzi should easily average 20 all year.
I think everybody agrees with Geno, let her shoot at will.

[latriciaturner]

I believe what will surprise most people is how easily Azzi Fudd will hit game winning shots just like she makes these shots.

[pteddie]

I love the respect/relationship between Gino and two of his outstanding players exhibited in this press conference. Go Huskies! Defeat South Carolina!

[lyledavis]

I’m a UCONN alumn and I am grateful for the talent on this team … but, I have serious concerns.

1) Defense in its current state will not win championships
2) Playing time for the talented team may lead to another defection

I pray all these young women stay healthy and get to work on the D!

[jimmiesmith]

Build that confidence. This is what Uconn needs from a #1 Recruit. Especially the seniors every night.

[rich]

I love their relationship! GENO’s interviews are so interesting.❤️🏀

[EUROGANGCREEZY]

uconn got the squad, a beast of a roster.

[joerusso]

defense will be the challenge fot uconn this season. is nika hurt? championship uconn teams would suffocate the other trams guards at the point of attack. if arkansas and s florida are getting to the the hoop and making layups higher ranked teams will give uconn trouble. also how does uconn get outrebounded playing 3 bigs.?

[Dingle]

Starting five, pg Paige, sg Azzi, sf brook, PF Edwards, c tall white freshman. More athletic, taller, tougher on both ends.

[SLuana]

where can i find the full press conference pls?

[Moormores]

Do not look down Paige. We love to see you do great. Smile for us - we love ya

[stanwebb]

"Fun Fudd Buckets" 1.5 Steps faster than Bullet, "Paige Buckets"!!!

[stubeef]
