""For us to do what we've done to continuously have to come to UConn, and every single school that I go to, from Buffalo to [Syracuse], it's unfair to the young people. We, I thought, deserved a little more respect.""
""After being in this business for 37 years, and to have to come and be in this particular bracket every freaking year is unacceptable. It's wrong.""
""I just want the young people that's in my locker room to have a fighting chance, and I am grateful to be in an NCAA tournament, from where we've come from, but I think that we've earned the right to go anywhere outside of a four-hour radius.""
Syracuse coach Felisha Legette-Jack expressed frustration with the NCAA women's basketball committee for consistently placing her teams in the UConn subregional. Following a significant loss to the Huskies, she stated that it is unfair for her teams to face UConn repeatedly, especially on their home floor. Legette-Jack emphasized that after 37 years in coaching, this pattern is unacceptable and feels like a personal attack. She believes her team deserves more respect and the opportunity to compete outside a limited geographic area.
