    Does Geno Still Have it?

    A good question for sure.. No one can argue with what he has accomplished up until last year even, with the ridiculous street of consecutive Final Four appearances. and the 11 National Championships etc But let's look a little deeper to see if he still has it or not.. There was once a time...

    Disappointment

    I'm going to break my silence on this discussion board and say a few things that may or may not be popular.. 1) We cannot keep doing the same things an expect different results The talent in women's college basketball has changed, you cannot expect to win against a good opponent by playing...

    Uconn's biggest problem this year apart from injuries has been Turnovers.. How can you guys seriously consider the person leading the team with the most turnovers by far to be the leading candidate for MVP, seriously? Takeaway our turnovers this year and we are most likely undefeated.... The...

    Amari Playing Time

    Perhaps God is trying to tell Geno something with all the team players who are currently no longer 100%, will he wait until he has absolutely no choice? 3-5 mins of meaningful play might just motivate the person to perform better, since obviously 2 years of no , minutes haven't so far...

    Amari Playing Time

    If I remember correctly Geno joked with a ton of Sarcasm that Amari in that game was trying to prove you dont have to practice well to play well...

    ND Postgame Thread

    Today was a perfect storm for our team, 1) obviously, Azzi getting hurt was a big difference, and please don't tell me that prior to her getting hurt that she did nothing, the game is played in forty minutes, it's not like ND was the first team to limit Azzi's scoring early in a game.. We...

    Top 3 Things You Want To See Against Duke On Friday Night

    There seems to be quite a lot of Request for Caroline, but do we really need her this year? Last year we did for sure, but with the implementation of Lou, I'm not so certain we need her.. Definitely is nice to have another option on the court, but scoring is not our problem right now... With...

    The Athletic Power Ranking: Expected UCONN to struggle? No so fast!

    For our post defense to get better, it would mean our Rookie needs alot more playing time, she has all the natural skills to bring that necessary impact in the post, Both Dorka and Aaliyah have been with us long enough now for us to know what you see, is what you get. they are just not...

    Bracketology

    in 2017 , after Stewie, Tuck and Moriah graduated, Not a single person including Geno did not pick UConn to get back to the final four, but here we are on the path for 15 straight final four's.. I am a believer!!! This Team even without Paige and Ice is a special team... they have the...

    New top 25 women in WCBB list

    If it was left to me, South Carolina would be #1 and UConn would be #2 in the country based simply on the performance from last year as the last two standing programs.. Uconn played without Paige last year and with several injured and one very ill individual, so why should one or two injured...

    Dominique Malonga?!?! Coach Geno get her… (merged thread)

    #1 The young lady's drill is started by mimicking setting a High Screen For another player to help free a teammate up #2 From which she rolls to the paint and looks to receive the pass with 2 hands from the ball reversal #3 After receiving the ball she then squares her body to the Rim to...

    Dominique Malonga?!?! Coach Geno get her… (merged thread)

    Check the second video posted, that kid is complete at such a young age, just imagine her with a stronger body.. finds the gaps and uses her quickness very well, she's basically a taller Gabby or Swin Cash... Sets the high screen or at least tried to on several occasions, finished with both...

    Qadence Samuels vs Toby Fournier

    All I gathered from that video was that one team played as a team whilst the other did not... which resulted in a 20-point margin of victory.

    NCAA records for the last 5 years

    The funny thing is, who is to say that if they were in a "better Conference" their record wouldn't even be better. Sometimes playing against better consistent competition can help a team to reach higher levels of performance... it's not like we haven't done it before when the Big East was the...

    NCAA records for the last 5 years

    When you have arguably the best coaches and the best players coming out of high school year after year, no one is going to feel sorry for our program falling short of the lofty expectations. Even the players tell us the reason they came to our program is to win National Titles, so whenever a...

    Ayanna Patterson goal. Alot more than a super athletic Dunker.

    For the longest time now Coach has been saying his teams are way too nice on the court... and here we are discussing the word aggression... LOL, Why do you guys think the game changes for UConn when Nika enters the game? She is a very aggressive player. Some of the greatest who have played the...

    How can we beat South Carolina

    Keys to UCONN beating SC this year 1) UCONN have to be confident and the aggressor. 2) Use our bench, keep our legs fresh, it will be an exhausting 40 mins 3) Get some help from the refs, let's hope they call fouls when they are committed 4) get 20 or more points on fast breaks, tire Aliyah...

    How come Dorka only played 3 minutes?

    Some are here getting down on the young lady for her 3 mins of play I would like those same people to show me exactly who played well for the first 3 mins of the game.. Our team had what was it again, 3 Turnovers in the first 3 mins by the starters which allowed IU to go up by as many as six...

    Are Geno's coaching methods outdated?

    Oh My Goodness... Really? You guys are acting as though Geno is clueless when in fact he has been telling us all along, without Paige's presence this team is lacking... And have been urging them to give her more help. Sure these kids all have skills, but so far none of them have proven they...

    Post Play still Uconn's Achilles Heel

    According to Geno, the game strategies for both teams: UConn was willing to give up the 3 ball to SC because their strength is their post And South Carolina wanted to Harrass/Deny our Guards and ignore our bigs and play those odds Both strategies worked for both teams, the only problem is...
