Geno said he favors lowering the goal in women's basketball.
Thoughts?

Geno quite often uses sarcasm to make a point. I'd like to see the context in which he made this statement.
I think the men ought to raise the goal to 12' Then men's basketball would look like it did in the 70's.
I don't think Geno is right, e.g. the change he proposes won't help sell the games.
There will always be more people show up to watch a winner than a loser, I don't care what you sport, boys or girls, you are talking about. But, I think the girls game will always trail the boys game in popularity.
I am embarrassed to say this, but I think the only rule change that would get the majority of men paying to see women's basketball is a rule that girls had to play topless. This is just the world and society we live in.
There are plenty of men, such as myself, that just like basketball played well, either by girls or boys and enjoy watching the competition and game. But, I think I am in the minority.
Right in there with you, Roc!I'll join the minority. I prefer the women's game over the men in basketball and soccer. I like good solid fundamentals. That's just me, I know I am in the minority.

You guys should like Coach Kruger then - very fundamentally based coach. "Old school."
To me, "more fun and more scoring" does not necessarily equate to better basketball.I agree with Geno. A lot more fun and more scoring with the womens' goal set at 9 feet.
