Not true, Do you remember Diana Taurasi? I do since I was a student at Uconn when she was there. I can list you many players that were intense yet NOT dirty. I don't mind when other teams play us tough and try to be physical with us, its called game planning!! I like nice players that smile...
I agree, I think CW is going to be a superstar at Uconn. I also agree she can turn it on come tournament time. Remember im just telling you how I feel today Mid/Late Jan. Of course the team should/will improve come March/April. I definitely think we can win it all as I mentioned in previous...
IF Lou puts us on her back with her repaired ankle I think the big three can win it all. She is so capable of scoring, rebounding, everything now. CW needs to be the early season CW and we need some edge.
We are still a very good team. It will be an interesting ride.
Why do u think this team can “win it all”. This group has showed us they cannot win it all. This group has shown us they are nice, polite girls, that work hard and win a lot of games. They have not proved they can win it all. No player has been willing to step up and truly lead. Two years ago...
Your point is fantastic. My dad was just saying that the stars of this team, especially Lou and Pheese are just way too nice, and maybe with the exception of Danger the team is just not that intense. Geno said it somewhere(maybe on the first Geno Show) that the team is zero personality?! No...
When uconn was firing on all cylinders in years past it was like listening to a Motzart Symphony, it was a thing of beauty. Maybe the problem is, Geno is not driving an 8 cylinder car this year. With AS in the pros and a novice at the 2, there is a limit to how beautiful the music can be.
This is dead on. We are not forcing turnovers which lead to easy fast break points. Looking Kia and Gabby and adding a novice in CW is really evident. Now thats not CW fault, she will learn and become a great husky.
The other thing that single handedly has killed us is AS bolting for the...
Just as most boneyarders, I watch every Uconn game and am a huge fan of this team and program for decades. If anyone follows my posts they would know that even though I love this program I still can be critical of the team, or the future of the program. After watching the early season...
Good post. You hit the nail on the head. MW was faster, taller, stronger or more talented than the competition she faced in HS. MW is not a fleet footed guard with a pretty stroke. She’s an undersized forward with a line drive jumper.
It’s tsking her longer to adjust to the speed and height of...
We were suppose to have a 6th man this year, her name is Megan Walker. Please don't forgot that AS kinda surprised everyone(including Geno) and bolted for the Pro's. Geno was clearly not prepared for this and I think when its all said and done this year its that turn of events thats going to...
I would not have an issue with this if most of the bench were Freshman.
Irwin- Experienced Junior that knows the system in and out
Bent- Experienced Junior that knows the system in and out, probably smartest person in the building.
Camara- A Junior as well that should know the system. Yes i...
I think we need balanced classes. I know what the OP is talking about. Yes we need to recruit top talent that would fit the UConn system but we also need some players in that 15-50 best players in HS to compliment the premium talent.
I can understand that it’s hard to see the forest past the trees. Your right the sky is not falling today. In fact we are a pretty darn good team. Sure we are flawed but so is any team without Stewie ha. We are going to forget all about this loss as we beat up on a crappy conference schedule and...
I respect your post believe me. I don't think im second guessing the coach, but I think its ok to comment on what I see and voice my concerns for next year. I have been very worried about 2019-20 for 2 years now. When I first touched on these feeling on this board I was ripped apart so I...
Tom Cat- Those that are in reality like us can clearly see whats going on. Of course we will still go to the games and root for the girls but next year is going to be very very tough unless theres some miracle off shore recruits coming in here. The biggest question is can a 65 year old Great...
We can make this place a fairy tale land full of cadbury eggs and rainbows or we can talk about this team, the good and the bad. Its a team board for gosh sake! If we can wax poetic about Lou and phese etc we have to point out the players that aren't performing or the current or future state...
I was thinking the same thing. I hate to say it BUT i felt that the commentating was less obnoxious than usual.. I actually found them with some insightful things to say about the actual game. Now I fully understand UCONN was losing most of the game and kinda getting killed the last 5 minutes...
Wait Walker many bad games last year which we gave her a pass as a freshman. Walker this year has certainly has improved from bad games to ok games... I don't see a number one impact player so far, heck I don't even see flashes of that. She starts cause were so thin and there are no better...
Your Kidding right? A ridiculous comment. I am a UCONN graduate, donate to the school, support the girls team with my attendance at some home games and watch every game thats televised. I was past friends with former Uconn players and competed against former uconn players in the field house...
