Like Kia Nurse said the other, we are pretty confident in what our girls can do. Not worried one bit. We come out and be the aggressor. Hit fast. Hit Hard. And Keep on hitting. We got this. UConn, baby. Bleed Blue 4 Life!!
I didn't know those things bothered them last season...This year is totally different from last year. No 111 game winning streak and no HBO cameras following them around. They will be focused and play a great game.
If she played for UConn, she'd play better than she plays right now.A'ja Wilson is a great player but if she played for UConn she wouldn't even be the best player on the team.
Actually, Dawn did as a player in the Final Four in 1991.A'ja has never beaten us. Dawn has never beaten us. We have always beaten them - convincingly. We beat them by 25 last month. Z didn't play well - she is playing much better now. We are on a mission - to take back our rightful place as national champions. A'ja is on a mission - "to enjoy her college career." UConn will be in Columbus next weekend.
Good catch!Actually, Dawn did as a player in the Final Four in 1991.
...Z didn’t look good against Buffalo.
Only if UConn has an off game. If our team plays the way they did against Duke, the game will be a lot closer than it should be.If they couldn't beat us on their own home court, how are they going to do it on a virtual UCONN home court?
ESPN and others including many BY members sing the praises of A'ja Wilson as POY and a great WBB player!
IMHO forgetting positions, C, PF, SF, SG, and PG, A'ja doesn't even make my 10 top players!
Is A'ja Wilson a better player than:
Tina Charles
Maya Moore
Diana Taurasi
Sue Bird
Rebecca Lobo
Jenn Rizzotti
Swin Cash
Gabby Williams
Nykesha Sales
Breanna Stewart
And that's just UCONN players!
A'ja is a GOOD WBB player but has miles to go before becoming a GREAT WBB player! For all the talk of her greatness, how many times has she beaten UCONN, or even come close to beating UCONN? And you better bet the farm that A'ja knows deep down if UCONN made the finals last year she'd still be looking for a National Championship!
Katie Lou runs rings around her in all phases of the game but the "talking suits" before the season even started called A'ja the best and now can't admit they were wrong!
