Sabreena and Chantel sit down with UConn head coach Geno Auriemma. They discuss how much the women's basketball landscape has changed in the 40 years since he arrived in Storrs, how building a program is different than maintaining a program (and what he misses about that building process), how freshmen players have become more adaptable to the college game and which of his pre-NIL players would've most thrived during the NIL era. Then, in this addition to Zena's love letter she discusses a few of the college coaches that aren't often mentioned but have been able to adapt their approach to the game to fit today's era.
