Paul FinebaumGUEST
They'll be the same way, uh, this weekend and next weekend and every other weekend.
Paul FinebaumGUEST
Um, and I wanna, I wanna go back to Geno Auriemma, who's the most, uh, respected women's basketball coach i- in modern history, and he came out the other day and said college sports is dying, and I literally about fell off of my chair when I heard him say that.
Paul FinebaumGUEST
It is not.
Paul FinebaumGUEST
Uh, I'm on a, I'm on a college campus every single week.
J.A. AdandeHOST
Came with the impression Nick Saban was an obsessive workaholic who treated players and staff poorly.
J.A. AdandeHOST
Being from Connecticut, Danny Hurley and maybe even Geno Auriemma come to mind having similar personalities as Saban.
J.A. AdandeHOST
Wondering if you have that-- think that personality type is what's needed to be successful in big-time college sports these days.
J.A. AdandeHOST
If not, who are some of the exceptions?" Um, I would take exception with necessarily treating his players and staff poorly.
Charlie BakerGUEST
... year after year after year.
Charlie BakerGUEST
Um, Geno Auriemma-

Mike SchaeferHOST
I mean, those are all time great coaches that we just talked about.
Mike SchaeferHOST
Saban, Geno Auriemma, Belichick, Belichick.
Mike SchaeferHOST
Like those guys were, those guys do not have fun.
Mike SchaeferHOST
They are not having fun.
Chase ParhamHOST
That's not correct at all.
Chase ParhamHOST
Dan Hurley and Geno Auriemma winning titles.
Chase ParhamHOST
They were offsetting any postseason bonuses with insurance policies because the school literally couldn't afford it if they were both to win the national titles and run up losses.
Chase ParhamHOST
All of the escalators that were involved reported a few days ago, but since our last podcast, LSU, I know you're shocked that LSU is the team in the news over this, says that a third party is helping LSU hedge against potential bonus payments to Lane Kiffin and use bets on the team's performance on Kashi to offset exposure.
Kelly AlexanderHOST
Now, um, I wanted to give a shout-out to the-- well, to WNBA players, and, uh, I guess specifically on this one, even though I'm a Tennessee fan and also a, uh, North Carolina fan-- or sorry, South Carolina fan, uh, when it comes to Dawn Staley and, uh, women's basketball.
Kelly AlexanderHOST
But the, uh, the UConn Huskies peeps, including Geno Auriemma, a new documentary has come out.
Kelly AlexanderHOST
It's called the Dynasty: UConn Huskies, and it features a look at legendary coach Geno Auriemma's fear of failure, his coaching methods, and the UConn women's basketball program's rise to the top because, uh, for a while they were at the bottom, and when he took over, he really did grow that program.
Kelly AlexanderHOST
And I've managed to watch a few of the episodes.
Kelly AlexanderHOST
There's three.
Jeremy WolfHOST
The league says the portion owned by its players is now valued at nearly $200 million.
Jeremy WolfHOST
Investors in the round include Carmelo Anthony, perhaps you've heard of him; Alex Morgan, perhaps you've heard of her; UConn's Geno Auriemma, perhaps you've heard of him.
Jeremy WolfHOST
The money funds a Miami home arena and quadrupling road shows.
Jeremy WolfHOST
Road shows, not teams in different league, like places.
Richard DeitchHOST
So if you're into, uh, those former ESPNers who are continuing in media, uh, check that out.
Richard DeitchHOST
And then if you're into women's basketball, we've done a ton of stuff on, uh, the WNBA, including on July 6th, Geno Auriemma, the, uh, famed UConn coach, uh, was on this podcast as well Want to thank James Jackson for all his hard work.
Richard DeitchHOST
I know he's excited about probably the Phillies making their run as a Philadelphia guy.
Richard DeitchHOST
I know the Eagles obviously will be starting very, very soon.
KCHOST
Recently, they have received a massive influx of cash from naive investors.
KCHOST
Carmelo Anthony, Geno Auriemma, Trae Young, someone named Alex Morgan, with players owning 95% of the league.
KCHOST
To me, [sighs] and maybe this is me being a bit skeptical, but to me, this sounds like redistribution of wealth.
KCHOST
This sounds like the haves giving to the have-nots.
Chris VernonHOST
Even the men's and women's basketball programs.
Chris VernonHOST
Like, you think about UConn, and you think about, like, Hurley and Auriemma can't stand each other.
Chris VernonHOST
And who, I don't know what, Kim, what's her name? Kim Mulkey.
Chris VernonHOST
Mulkey, and her relationship with Will Wade is.
