Some extra notes....
Geno Auriemma appeared on ESPN2's Cold Pizza this morning discussing his induction into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.
He said he had never been "more impressed" by someone than Joe Dumars.
On coaching men: "When you pick up the papers there are lot more guys getting fired then on the women. ... It has certainly crossed my mind and I have had opportunities. I don't see myself doing anything other than what I'm doing now."
He added that down the road he may change his mind.
On why the Huskies will win the national championship this season: "We're going to win a sixth because we are going to play just good enough. ... If we are goinig to win it, we're going to need some help from the other guys."
On his restaurant: "I'd like to be the Paul Newman of coaching."
*Connecticut Sun coach Mike Thibault was at last night's game, sitting courtside in front of the student section near the Purdue bench.
*Big East championship tickets go on sale today.

Geno keeps saying that this team is going to go all the way this year. I believe him. The man doesn't make these predictions lightly.
This team wants to win the championship. They have the fire and desire that was missing last year.
They also have depth at just about every position. Would like to see any three point shooter step up though, Mel can't do it all.
