Fudd's growth in the WNBA can be fostered by playing with strong backcourt teammates Bueckers and Arike Ogunbowale.

Ackerman, 66, took over as commissioner of the Big East in 2013 as it returned to its basketball roots following several departures.

Bueckers, who played with Fudd at UConn, announced on social media last year that the two were romantically involved.

Staley said she has a great deal of respect for Auriemma, while Auriemma apologized after their heated exchange, saying, "I lost myself."
