UConn coach Geno Auriemma says revenue sharing could ruin women's basketball's competitive gains.

UConn head coach says it will create haves and have-nots in the early years of the game.

South Carolina coach Dawn Staley says women’s basketball is on the rise to becoming a revenue-producing sport.

Auriemma said the men’s and women’s games don’t have to be identical, and they can learn ways to enhance each tournament from each other. “But I also think we’re sometimes afraid to look at what they do that enhances their tournament and see whether or not that fits what we want to do and not be married to tradition,” he said..
