    UConn is prepared for March

    I think the difference with this team is how they respond to adversity through games. I look back at the Tennessee game when Tennessee had the lead for a brief time. Uconn didnt panic, or made uncharacteristic mistakes. They played thru it and beat Tennessee by 25+ points i think. That...

    UConn stats….. Is Allie now the best shooter on the team..?

    I agree... Im confident Allie will begin to create her own shots rather than be a spot up shooter. I would love to see Allie dribble then ball, fake left and drive to the right and bam, a jump shot, a quick one. She looks loke she has the goods to do it, but that would elevate her game so much...

    What makes UConn so good for so long

    What sets Uconn apart, is obviously the culture they built since 1995. But also the program's philosophy of each individual player playing for each other. Its the daunting task of leaving all ego outside the storr's gym and play selflessly for each other. You see in their extra passes to each...

    UConn - ND post game (merged)

    This was an excellent team win for Uconn. And let's not get it twisted, ND is a top tier team, regardless if they are ranked or not, ND is a team every team has to respect and play them as if they were top 5. I cant wait until Jana returns and hopefully Ice too. Ice stretches the floor a bit...

    UConn - ND post game (merged)

    Given the atmosphere and importance of this game, Blanca played exactly how I'd expect an incoming freshman to play, like a freshman. I am convinced that Blanca is the X factor for us be back to back champions. Blanca, like Sarah, haven't even hit their peaks yet. Uconn will be Uber scary come

    UConn is ready to Explode

    Knowing and following zuconn for so long, they will.not shy away from HH or alter their way of playing because of HH. KK and Azzi are normally assigned the opponent's beat player and I think that philosophy wont change with ND. Part of going to the next level is to be able to guard players like...

    Geno's logical successor

    Imagine Carla and Shea both coaching at Uconn.. Geno's future successor would have to be someone that was a part of the Uconn culture, the Uconn philosophy. Players thay come to Uconn to play for Geno are not coming because Geno is sooo cool and nice. They come to Uconn because he is the...

    Geno Auriemma ‘pleasantly surprised’ with UConn WBB’s frontcourt development

    Jana plays with a chip on her shoulder, and I love thay for her. However, this way of approaching the game isn't working for her that well. There are times where she has a clean shot at the basket and somehow manages to either get the ball stripped from her or misses the bunny completely. I...

    Undefeated teams, part 2 (merged)

    I think they go lower than 9th. LSU's back to back losses were to teams ranked lower than them.

    Guessing how Geno handles the second half schedule

    I cant wait to see Kelis's game on full display. You can see what her potential can be if given more minutes and more of a chip on her shoulder. Im guessing this will come during her junior year. Right now playing alongside KK, Azzi, and Shade must be serving wonders for kelis. The same goes for...
