UT will win the SEC if they win this game by this score.Indiana likes to come out the gate scoring quickly,,,Berger, Holmes, and Penn are their 3-headed monster, they combined for 48 or Indiana's 68 points. With 42 of their 68 points in the paint...look for UT to go big early and stop the IU inside scoring attack... I predict the starters to be Davis, Burrell, Horston, Key and Green....Look for Key/Green to score 30 between them,,,Jordan will shut down Berger and Rennia will reemerge with 20 points,,,,Burrell will continue to play solid and populate the entire statline
Coach Jumper's prediction: UT 84 UI 68
If he did he had lack of institutional control! Sure she just started swearing after she left! Your opinion is like mine, nothing more or nothing less!!
Never said she just started swearing after she left. You are assuming Geno never said anything to her about it. I'm just curious. Do you believe she swore all the time? I've watched a ton of her games back in the early 2000 after I moved to Connecticut from NJ and I didn't hear a stream of vulgarities.
However, I do know that Chris Daily is the one that keeps the kids in line based on quotes from former players. And she wouldn't put up with constant swearing.
Every team will have players that swear up a storm, and there's nothing inherently wrong with that. We all see the "that was bullsh!t!" after a foul call or the "F***!" after a bad play...neither of which is directed at anyone in particular. It's a different story if they are doing it in refs faces (and they would certainly get T'd up if they did). But overall, It's just a matter of are fans willing to see it on their own teams of angels?

I think it only applies for players on teams other than one's own. I can read lips, and I recall Parker always had her fair share of...colorful things to say (even now in the WNBA).Guy players swear all the time and it is generally taken as a sign of "competitive fire" and "intensity" but let a woman player use spirited language, and the pitchforks are out (for some at least).
Not my team. C.Viv is an angel....lol.
However, the poster said Geno did nothing about it. I'm sure he or Daily did.
I watched the UConn game and saw an example of that. The "next coming" Bueckers was on the bench and right after a UConn player blocks a shot they panned to Bueckers and she stood up waving her towel and yelled "Get that ** out of here". I watched Daily look up at her and with a disgusted look on her face say to Bueckers "that is just stupid"...
Funny stuff. Yes, I can read lips...lol.
Also, I'm all for swearing....I have a potty mouth myself.
My favorite "colorful language" recollection.
Parker's first game against UConn. Parker was preparing to go for a rebound and says, "I got it!". Barbara Turner from UConn bullies her way into position and says, "You ain't got SH!T!" and snags it away from Parker, who goes down on the floor. Tennessee won the game without much drama, but that was a damn funny moment. Turner was like a constantly yapping Chihuahua. Her bark suggested she saw herself as a lot bigger than she was (to her credit, it showed up in the way she played).
Favorite non-player related cursing: Louisville a couple of years ago...I think in the tournament. Kylee Shook was inbounding, and pretty much threw it to Walz. He calls a timeout, calmly walks up to Kylee and says, "What the F*** was that?" She attempts to process what he's saying, and he says a bit more sternly, "WHAT THE F*** WAS THAT????"
