The three-part docu-series debuts on Aug. 21 on Apple TV.
University of Connecticut women's basketball fans will get an inside look at the program, and all its successes on Aug. 21 when Apple TV's docu-series "The Dynasty" is released.
"The Dynasty" is a three-part docu-series chronicling the rise of the program, from where Geno Auriemma started to where he has it now: A 12-time national champion and the most recognizable brand in women's college sports.
As the release date gets closer, we've gotten a few bread crumbs as to what's what's coming in the docu-series:
1) Geno Auriemma discusses the end of his career
Auriemma, the winningest coach in the sport's history, who is now past 40 years of coaching, wrestles with the end of his career and how it could actually end. He mentions his own doubts, wanting an ideal ending, but he is reminded by Diana Taurasi that endings aren't always clean.
Auriemma also talks about what motivates him and what keeps him coming back.
2) Azzi Fudd and Paige Buecker's relationship
The duo, who now play together in the WNBA for the Dallas Wings, has shot down any conversation about their off-court relationship. However, Fudd confirms in this documentary that the two are a couple, and we'll get a little bit more of the backstory of how that came to be.
While their relationship is their business, it will be interesting to find out how they navigated the complexity of that relationship and balanced it with on-court goals and successes.
3) The greats will appear
In addition to Bueckers and Fudd, several stars from the program's past will appear in the docu-series. Rebecca Lobo, Maya Moore, Taurasi and others will all be there to talk about what it was like playing for Auriemma and what it was like having a part in building the program.
Also in the news for UConn
Switching to the current group of Huskies: The non-conference schedule for 2026-27 was released this week. UConn will play 10 NCAA Tournament teams from a season ago in the regular season, while also adding two in the exhibition season.
While this schedule will undoubtedly challenge the Huskies and prepare them for another run in March, it also comes at a cost: Unfortunately, there are only four true home games on the schedule, with several other games appearing as neutral site contests. Those matchups are better for television, but they do impact the longtime fans who have supported the program.
