Can you really have cheerleaders run around the arena with UConn basketball capital of the world anymore

NCSt guards (3 of them) were very good. Quick and physical, and hot shooters. Probably didn’t want Shade overwhelmed.Only Paige and Quadence were aggressive.
Surprised Geno didn't give Ashlynn Shade any minutes to change things up. She's a pesky defender and seems pretty sound offensively as far as making cuts and getting in there for some rebounds too.
That’s a little dramatic. UConn lost a basketball game. The sun will rise tomorrow and UConn will go to practice this week and try be a little better each day than they were the day before. That’s all you can ask from the kids.A complete and total disaster. Coaches didn't seem upset.
I didn’t. Not sure I want to rewatch Thursday either.But other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?

Much of the time, Fudd is tentative and her vaunted shooting skill is not evident. Ive been a big Ducharme fan but she appears to be a shell of her freshman self.Paige was terrific and is back.
Q was aggressive and showed she deserves more playing time.
Team looked slow and played slow.
Defense was a mess with a ton of missed assignments.
Lack of toughness and hustle plays is troubling.
Azzi and Caroline seemed half-asleep.
A few months ago I wrote a thread elaborating on the difference in women's basketball in just the past ten years, pointing out how the women's game has gotten bigger and that the one area we have not emphasized enough is our size. I was met with a barrage of negative criticism from people who felt our backcourt talent was more than enough to make up for the height difference.

Contrary to what CD believes, Azzi's shot is NOT automatic
I think 9 players for UConn.So much for the ten player rotation. Not that it would have helped, but Geno quickly went back to his old ways, using a seven player rotation.
Yeah, that would have been nice. But this was her first really competitive game and she may have needed the first quarter to fully reinstall her confidence. I suspect it is now fully online.I, probably like a host of others, would have preferred that Paige assert herself earlier in the game.
I don't know - I'm just getting so tired of the 7 player rotation.I feel like he could have at least tried it for a few minutes! Nothing else was going right, why not throw her in there for a few mins to see how she'd do? Oh well!
Those numbers are SHOCKING!!! But they don't lie. Something is wrong with how the team played when Paige and Azzi were on the floor.Eight points combined for the upperclassmen - Nika, Caroline, Aubrey. No bueno. But the team gave up 92 points. 92! I don’t blame the freshmen but the juniors and seniors should have done better.
Qadence and KK are the only ones with positive +/-

I don’t understand what happened with her. It’s so disappointing.The look on Azzi's face during this game was shocking. It was not the look of a confident player. I don't understand.
