More on UConn -- the New York Times says it's not the end of the world. The danger for UConn is portraying the loss as a freak accident; the truth is: they've been playing badly, and they need to get some things fixed. Geno wishes the loss would have come sooner. The Connecticut Post says Taurasi needs to take over.

Here is the scoop on Geno's sparring with reporters in the postgame news conference. The USA Today has a blurb here, but unlike Jacobs of the Courant, they couldn't get a quote from Alnutt. The Daily Campus, meanwhile, is proud of Alnutt... and they also find time to whine that their reporters aren't treated like real journalists.
