What I Have Learned From Geno Auriemma

"PERFECTION is an art form, carved from domination of time, a flawless patchwork, an unblemished surface that never loses its shine. Its sport was methodical, everyday in the WIN...every win by a wide margin. No one could know if this team was the "best of all time" but merely at the right time.  But it was one thing for certain: BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE! And for that...there will always be a place in history!"

Dedicated To The UCONN Women’s Basketball Team


"I don't want to just survive and advance,
I want to conquer and dominate."

The Winning Streak

"Any record in history means nothing unless we accomplish our next goal which is to win the next game." -Geno Auriemma

The Pursuit Of Perfection Philosophy

The Pursuit Of Perfection Philosophy By Geno Auriemma
We are either coaching it or letting it happen.
What does 70 wins in a row do for us if we lose tomorrow?
The coach will tear you down. The game will build you back up.
I am coaching for now and the future everyday.
Our focus is always on the next possession.
