Message: [QUOTE="huskyd, post: 2051366, member: 6488"] When I saw your 195-win number, I was underwhelmed. Why? I had to think about it. Then it dawned on me that the number of wins w/out losses isn't the objective of the game. Every season there are 2 primary goals: first, win the conference; two, win the NC. UConn has had losses and still won the NC; it has even lost the conference championship and won the NC. Winning the NC is what it's all about—however it's done. I know Geno agrees because he's said so on more than one occasion. When the NC banner goes up, it makes no mention of the W/L record. That being said, I agree with you that the upward limit to the team's success (both this year and next) is incalculable. With next year's recruits plus Azura and Batouly, I expect the Huskies to be unbeatable by any team in the country—and for at least 4 years. So: 150 and 200 are possible. But the winning may be become beside the point: the beauty and precision of Geno's teams will have to be enough. Of course, what's good for the goose is bad for WCBB. Tough. :p [/QUOTE]
