The (New London) Day's Mike DiMauro on the WBCA's proposal to restrict college coaches' pro employment: "This is their way to finally get back at Summitt."

DiMauro also thinks the proposal would ban college coaches from playing on WNBA teams, which isn't true. From the WBCA's memo (PDF here):

"An institution's coach may participate as a player with a professional women's basketball league or team...

"The members of the WBCA Special Committee on Recruiting and Access were adamant that an exception be created for college coaches participating as players. We fully support the continued growth and competitiveness of the WNBA, and we regret that... erroneous journalism has called the committee's intentions into question."

Me too. (The WBCA blames this article.)

I still think it's silly to ban Geno from announcing; whatever "unfair advantage" (the WBCA's language) he gets as "broadcast talent" for a few Sun games is diddlysquat besides the perfectly fair "advantage" he gets from four championship teams. The Sun gain more from his face at their games than UConn does, and he has no say as to who the Sun will draft. (She, on the other hand, has a say in a pro draft, and probably shouldn't.)
