Yes, I agree. How does booing Geno and hating UConn advance the RU program? RU needs a succession plan for CVS and a Head Coach that can recruit players that produce the chemistry of winning basketball.
In the wider world of WBB, it is "news" of sorts. I, for one, don't "like" UConn, but I don't boo them or Geno either in person or in the abstract.
Wondering how UConn will recruit isn't my "thing", but it is interesting. I read their message board, as it covers a lot of WBB, but not really their recruiting angst threads - but they do exist. I don't expect them to be anything other than a Final Four expectation every year with a shot at a NC until Geno retires.
All of which doesn't suggest that your 2nd point is any less important or immediate to Rutgers fans. But, to the greater point, I try very hard to follow all of WBB, even if my rooting interests are really only Rutgers and Arizona.
